ONE VS 10,000

Australian accountant Simon Patkin is in Hong Kong staging a one man pro-capitalism demonstration prior to the upcoming World Trade Organisation meeting. It's probably a good idea he got in early:

Police had told Mr Patkin to choose a time that would avoid confrontation with an expected 10,000 opponents of freer trade.

Those activists, including environmentalists, unions and anarchists, will demonstrate against the WTO meeting this week.
