Hong Kong: Hundreds of Lehman Brothers investors rallied in Hong Kong on Sunday, accusing regulators of not doing enough to protect their money.
Retirees and workers carrying investment papers marched to Hong Kong's government headquarters Sunday, chanting slogans.
Many of them have invested the equivalent of more than $150,000 in a Lehman-linked bond.
Hong Kong's Democratic Party, which helped organized the protest, said it drew about 800 people.
Lehman Brothers, which filed for bankruptcy earlier this week, were not immediately available for comment.
