TAB: Hong Kong's CY Leung in trouble, Vongfong slams Japan, and Will Kim Jong-un show now?

NOTES: http://asianewsweekly.net/2014/10/13/hong-kongs-cy-leung-trouble-vongfon... It’s Monday, October 13, 2014, and this is The Asia Brief. Hong Kong braces for another week of protests, but not all of the action and intrigue is taking place on the streets of Admiralty. Hong Kong Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying is under fire for receiving HK$50 million from an Australian firm and it might cost him his job. Disrupting more than 16,000 passengers, Typhoon Vongfong is set to hit Japan’s main islands today and tomorrow. Following a great leap forward in inter-Korean talks last week, an anti-Pyongyang group may have sabotaged planned talks between the two countries – and there’s still no sign of Kim.
