Attempts to bring Hong Kong citizens on to the negotiating table by the British during the Sino-Anglo discussions were rejected by Beijing in the late 1980s. The last governor Chris Patten faced a great deal of opposition in changing the former colony's political system. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democratic_development_in_Hong_Kong https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democratic_development_in_Hong...
