Elderly perminent residents of Hong Kong conduct a hunger strike protest outside the city's Legislative Council building on July 20, 2010. The demonstrators were seeking the right of abode for their children born outside the territory, a request that has been denied by the Hong Kong government under its immigration policy that makes it difficult or nearly impossible for family members from mainland China, to join their Hong Kong resident family members.
