Reminiscent of the past how it is like if students union leaders protest the government?
You can see this in your life time, Hong Kong today?
Hong Kong (CNN) -- Pro-democracy activists took their fight Thursday to the doorstep of Hong Kong's chief executive, sitting down outside his office gates to express their dissatisfaction with him and the central government in Beijing.
Some demonstrators say the next step could be occupying the inside of government buildings. It would be a drastic move, but one protest leader says it might be necessary to get officials' attention and bring change.
"We still can't get a normal, acceptable response," student leader Joshua Wong, 17, told CNN's Andrew Stevens. "This is the final action for us."
In some minds, this confrontation has been brewing ever since Hong Kong transitioned in 1997 from British to Chinese control.
