Gays in China taking steps toward equality at Hong Kong conference (SF Chronicle)

“About 80 gays and lesbians from China, Hong Kong and Taiwan had taken four days off work and spent hundreds of dollars to attend the first Tongzhi Conference held in Hong Kong since 1999.

The conference, which concludes tonight at a remote seaside resort cradled by lush tropical hills about an hour northeast of downtown Hong Kong, was so secretive that attendees were not told until last week where it would be held, and only one journalist was invited to attend. ”
