Lam insisted that there was a loophole in #HongKong’s criminal system & GovHK would not retract the bill. Asked if she will resign, she said the social atmosphere was calmer in the last two years.
“We regret that this incident caused a split in society."

Lam: "We should pause and think instead of assuming the second reading of the bill in the Legislative Council as scheduled."
She said GovHK is adopting an open mind to "heed comprehensively" the views of different sectors of society.

“The urgency of passing this bill within this term has maybe disappeared."
Leader Carrie Lam said pro-Beijing lawmakers had urged the gov't to delay, & said Taiwan had made it clear it would not receive the murder suspect whose case triggered the plan.
