I hope HK is a peace city now, all people have back to normal lives. I can foresee HK is broken after months of devastation. I think most of HK people want to have peace and development. After these months of struggle, the city actually consumed by themselves. They need a lot of time to recover. But their tax-free shopping policy can still bring them considerable economic income.
