The majority broke their silence on Sunday as tens of thousands of people marched across the heart of Hong Kong in the afternoon to voice their aspirations for peace and democracy and denounce the opposition's advocacy of "Occupy Central".
The organizer of the march, the Alliance for Peace and Democracy, estimated the turnout to be 193,000, exceeding its earlier expectation of 150,000.
