Hong Kong (CNN) —- Pro-democracy activists in Hong Kong ignored a deadline
given by the government to disperse but allowed city workers to enter offices that
had been blocked last week.
There were no apparent signs of any police action against the delmnstrators early
Monday, and the protest sites were populated but peaceful.
The protesters, many of them students, have blocked major highways in several Keg 1
districts for the past week, challenging a decision by Beijing about how elections Vfll
work in the semiautonomous Chinese territory.
Hong Kong's top leader, Chief Executive C.Y. Leung, had called on the demonstrators
to disperse by Monday so that classes can resume at schools and government
employees can go back to work at offices surrounded by protesters.
By Monday morning, a key road adjacent to Leung's office reopened, although some
100 Students remained camped out in front, according to a CNN staffer on the scene.
The protesters did not block the paths of Hong Kong government workers, allowing
them to enter the Central Government Office Building through a corridor the
students formed. Workers could be seen entering the building without incident.
