Chinese papers see the dwindling number of protesters as a win for the “mainstream society” in Hong Kong.
Representatives from Hong Kong’s Occupy Central movement have agreed to hold formal talks with the government.
Pro-democracy activists are protesting at China’s plans to vet candidates when Hong Kong holds elections in 2017, demanding that Beijing allow a fully free vote for the territory’s leader.
As the protests entered their second week, crowds began to die down and civil servants returned to work on Monday.
State-run media outlets have been publishing reports and commentaries noting the “withdrawal” of the crowds and economic repercussions of the protest.
Noting that the protest has subsided, an article in the People’s Daily website “applauds” the “mainstream opinion” and “unity of the people” for “conquering the evil forces”.
