Statement by ExCo Non-official Members
**************************************

The following is issued on behalf of the Executive Council (ExCo) Secretariat:

     In response to the violent acts occurred in Mong Kok last night (October 17), the ExCo Non-official Members issued the following statements:

     "The violent acts of gathering on and blocking the roads illegally as well as charging at Police cordon line in Mong Kok last night seriously disrupted social order, endangered public safety and affected the daily lives of people living in the vicinity. This obviously was not a peaceful demonstration. We strongly condemn those trouble-making people and organisations who initiated these violent acts. We fully support Police enforcement in order to restore social order and ensuring public safety."
