Government must consider public opinion, otherwise it will be unfair to the people when trouble arise.

FAI PO (29.3.71)

Benevolent administration is what we want and not a "totalitarian" Government, although we do not know where the bombs come from the effects worry us.

Suspend the implementation of increasing water-charges.

SING TAO JIH PO (29.3.71)

Don't implement the water-charge increase policy nor delay making the Chinese language official.

TIN TIN YAT PO (29.3.71)

Must respect public opinion.

MING PO (29.3.71)

People should learn from the 1967 lesson.

They should not use

these 2 issues as excuses. They should not do this for political or personal revenge.

KUNG SHEUNG YAT PO (29.3.71)

We will never support people who plant bombs no matter what their motives are.

Youth or militant elements, might be responsible for the bombs.

WAH KIU YAT PO (29.3.71)

Where do the bombs come from? People must now co-operate with the police in combatting the bomb-planters.

TRUTH DAILY

(29.3.71)

People will not be scared this time as they were in 1967. People responsible might well be the so-called "New leftists" who are not organized at all. Extremist elements should be kicked out of Hong Kong immediately.

NEW LIFE EVENING POST (29.3.71)

Government should try to solve the problem and arrest the culprits. Don't ignore public opinion anymore.

KUNG SHEUNG MAN PO (29.3.71)

We need the young people in Hong Kong. We're glad that they gave statements immediately to denounce this kind of violence.
