In September, the University of Hong Kong’s Public Opinion Program (POP) released the latest Public Sentiment Index (PSI).The index has a range between 0 and 200and now registers at the lowest at 66.7 since May 2003.
In a similarly dispiriting reading, when the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) published the World Happiness Report 2013 Hong Kong only ranks the 64th happiest among 156 countries, far behind its Asian peers Singapore (30th), South Korea (41st), Taiwan (42nd) and Japan (43rd).
Why Hong Kong is so unhappy? According to the survey, Hong Kongers are generally unhappy with their overall social environment and governance.
