Hong Kong leader backs same-sex couples' rights bill

HONG KONG: Hong Kong leader John Lee threw his weight behind a bill recognising limited rights for same-sex couples on Tuesday, despite fears that opposition from pro-Beijing parties could sink it.

Lee’s administration proposed legislation this month to recognise some rights for same-sex partners whose marriages are registered abroad.

Despite LGBTQ activists arguing it does not go far enough, the proposal drew near-universal criticism from the pro-Beijing politicians that dominate Hong Kong's legislature.
