Hong Kong's chairperson of the EOC, York Chow Yat-ngok has put the government under pressure to act on implementing legislation to protect LGBT from discrimination.
The EOC has released a survey of 1000 people in which 55.7 percent agreed with enacting legislation that protected LGBT from discrimination. This is half the 28.7 percent who agreed in 2005.
91.8 per cent of people aged 18 to 24 deemed legislation as necessary. Nearly half of religious Hong Kongers also supported a law to protect sexual minorities.
The study also reveals discrimination experienced by LGBT in the city in the areas of employment, education, provision of services, disposal and management of premises, as well as government functions.
The findings are at odds with a government-appointed advisory body's own report on the same topic which was released late last month.
This report came to the conclusion that there was no evidence of strong support and that further study was needed.
Three of the 14-member group demanded their names be removed from the group’s report and LGBT groups denounced the conclusion.

Just look at the general election polls in the UK last year. More importantly look at how trump used polls to his advantage!! Americans should be ashamed.
Most surveys by polling agencies are done with a sample of 1000, sometimes less. It may seem too little, but this ought to be a general complaint, not special to this case. And it's way more than the samples by drug labs which are on a few dozen people, and where they give their "findings" in percentage points!
Yes, testing will occur on small samples but the cohorts are pre-selected based on the testing. Analysis of many cohorts is then done in order to assess effectiveness, safety, side effects, etc. Totally didn't different to the sample in the article.
So I have to lol at you again. Do some reading on statistical analysis before you bother to reply.
