Banners and posters are seen across Hong Kong ahead of its district council poll, which will kick off on Sunday. Residents react to the poll where no candidate from the opposition camp is allowed to contest for the first time after an electoral overhaul that weeds out those considered disloyal to the Chinese government. "What's the point of voting? The political atmosphere is one-sided," says resident Mr Ng. "I don't think there should be a division between whether you are pro-democracy or not, as long as your heart is to serve the people, then that's ok," another local resident Ms Wong says.
