Hong Kong leader backs same-sex couples' rights bill

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.
