With only about 600,000 residents, Macau is heavily reliant on money and visitors from mainland China
of August 19th at least two dozen police officers could be seen loitering at the entrances to Senado Square, a narrow, busy plaza in the heart of old Macau. They took down the names of passing youngsters, especially anyone in black or white clothing. Some were led to a nearby car park to be searched. A few were taken away for further questioning.
Macau is very unlikely to develop an anti-government movement of the sort seen in Hong Kong. With only about 600,000 residents, its economy is heavily reliant on money and visitors from the mainland, and its small political class is loyal to the party. Although its laws guarantee rights to speech and assembly, Macau has plenty of tools for dampening dissent, including stern national-security legislation of a type that does not yet exist in Hong Kong.
