 * Keep. It is mentioned in East-West Identities: Globalization, Localization, and Hybridization, edited by Kwok B. Chan, Jan W. Walls, David Hayward. "... it appears the 1981 riots were triggered by crowd of people concentrated in down town area celebrating Christmas and the New Year. ...". Also, Understanding the Political Culture of Hong Kong: The Paradox of Activism and Depoliticization by Wai-Man Lam. "... Antigovernment sentiment lingered throughout the 1980s, as three riots of the 1980 attested. Two of three riots take place on the Christmas Day of 1981 and New Year's Day of 1982..." &mdash; HenryLi (Talk) 17:03, 27 December 2014 (UTC)
