Hong Kong Christians Call for Reform

Mike O'Sullivan

   LOS ANGELES - Among the protesters in Hong Kong, many, such as Terence
   Lai, are prompted by their religious faith to take part in the
   demonstrations.

   The 46-year-old community worker for the Hong Kong Christian Institute,
   a nongovernment organization, usually spends his time with low-income
   scavengers known as "cardboard grannies" -- elderly female recyclers
   who sometimes run afoul of local sanitation laws.
