HONG KONG (Reuters) - Chinese People’s Liberation Army soldiers in shorts and t-shirts joined pro-China residents in Hong Kong on Saturday to clean up barricades and debris after anti-government protests blocked roads, according to broadcaster RTHK.

The soldiers rarely leave their barracks in the Chinese-ruled city, which has been rocked by anti-government protests for months.

I know what you mean. But this is like phishing in computer term. The west are baiting the central government to walk in and take over but the world will criticize the central Government later.
We aren't falling for their trap or rather the Central Government isn't falling for the US (western) trap.

He means to say get involved in the riots and crush the rioters.

indeed, instead of bringing back law & order, the HK garrison has been reduced to being nothing more than janitors.
they probably hope they can win back the hearts & minds of the mob, instead this will only make them look weak, HKers think the PLA is inept, that is why they are ashamed of being called Chinese.

I'd like to let mobs continue aducating the HK Chinese. It's too earlier to show.

If Hong kong rioters start to attack those PLA soldiers cleaning up the street, what would happen?

 

[Akasa]

Just another planned show and propaganda piece put on by the armed terrorist wing of the CCP. Do you think the soldiers would really do this task of their own accord if there weren't cameras dispatched to take these (likely-staged) photos?

Why didn't the mighty Hong Kong protesters pick a fight with the PLA Garrison?
Don't they hate the Chinese government?
Too scared to fight a bunch of guys in t-shirt and shorts?

PLA would have to defend themselves
