		Reports: Our struggle against the WTO is not over, But to be won by the people of the world Published Thursday, January 12, 2006 - 12:30 AM
		1031 Reads We came to Hong Kong to stop the WTO negotiations, the consequence of which would have direct impact on the livelihood of us---workers and peasants. We believed we needed to have access to the negotiations to have our voices heard. However, until December 16, we did not have any opportunity to deliver our concerns to the convention centre where only representatives from government and business were allowed. on December 17, we decided to make one last effort to relay our message. In an attempt to make our way to the convention centre, we were blocked by the Hong Kong police and it ended with an unfortunate clash with the Hong Kong police and a record-breaking arrest of more than one thousand protestors. on December 19, the Hong Kong authority finally charged 14 protestors from Korea, Japan, Taiwan and China.
