The success of the Hong Kong Public Opinion Research Institute and Hong Kong Public Opinion Programme depends on the support of the civil society through voluntary work, money donation, activity sponsorship and membership subscription. For donations, we are seeking HK$6M as our startup capital, in order to establish our calling center and backend support. We are also seeking regular subscriptions of HK$240k per month for our HKPOP omnibus surveys in order to continue what we have been doing in the past 28 years, covering topics like the popularity of the Chief Executive, performance of the government, confidence in the future, ethnic identity, and so on.

Moreover, HKPORI also launches today the following civic society sponsorship scheme and popular membership system to raise more funding to develop its opinion research for the people:

Civic Society Sponsorship Scheme

Any person or group sponsoring HK$12,000 is entitled to suggest one question on whatever topic for inclusion in HKPOP’s next omnibus survey. HKPOP would professionally fine-tune the question, run the survey, and then release the result with proper acknowledgement of the sponsors, including “anonymous”. In case a sponsor gives up the right to suggest a question, HKPOP would use the sponsorship on running regular tracking questions.
