Hong Kong activists staged a small but rare public protest against their government’s decision to enact a domestic security law during a senior Chinese official’s visit to the Asian finance hub.

Three members of the League of Social Democrats were seen unfolding a banner and chanting slogans including “The people are higher than the country” outside the Hong Kong government headquarters Tuesday, according to videos posted online by outlets including Hong Kong Free Press.
