HONG KONG leader Leung Chun-ying said there is "zero chance" China will change its decision to vet candidates in elections for the city's top position, adding that he won't resign as chief executive amid calls from pro-democracy protesters for him to step down.
"I believe my stepping down will not solve the problem since they are demanding the National People's Congress to withdraw its decision and for civil nomination, which is impossible," Mr Leung said in an interview broadcast by Hong Kong's TVB News on Sunday, before he left for the southern Chinese city of Guangzhou to attend a forum.
