HKU POP tonight will release the preliminary results of Budget instant surveyBack
| Press Release on February 25, 2015 |
Since 1998, the Public Opinion Programme (POP) at The University of Hong Kong has been conducting Budget instant surveys every year. Starting 2008, we split up previous years’ instant survey into two surveys. In our first survey, we measure people’s overall appraisal of the Budget, their rating of the Budget, and FS’s popularity. In our second survey, we focus on people’s reactions towards different government proposals, their satisfaction with the government’s fiscal policies, and other relevant issues.
This year, our instant survey on the Budget will begin at 6 pm this evening, involving nearly 100 telephone interviewers. Once finished, preliminary results will be released via our “POP Site” (http://hkupop.pori.hk) for the public consumption, probably not later than 10 pm. The questions asked in the instant survey include: “How satisfied are you with the Budget announced by the Financial Secretary today?”, “Please use a scale of 0-100 to rate your degree of satisfaction of the Budget delivered by FS John Tsang today, with 0 indicating very dissatisfied, 100 indicating very satisfied and 50 indicating half-half.”, “Please use a scale of 0-100 to rate your extent of support to FS John Tsang, with 0 indicating absolutely not supportive, 100 indicating absolutely supportive and 50 indicating half-half.” and “If you had the right to vote on the reappointment or dismissal of John Tsang as the Financial Secretary tomorrow, how would you vote?”
