That's an interesting point, but Mr Tse's position shouldn't have significantly affected the results of an anonymous poll, right? I would trust hard statistics more than hearsay.
Your points re Mr Tse's biase well-taken.... However, such an appalling poll result warrants our serious attention. Maybe the media should look seriously into the rootcause. We are talking about a potential future CEO of 7 million people here.
You are right - his own position won't have much impact on the polling result directly. However, he provides comment as materials for the media in Tong's camp which can have a big influence on general public. Our view on Leung is based on our congitive ability; however, as human, our thinking will be changed if we keep exposing to a certain opionion (in other words, brainwash).
Reading from your post, I reckon that you are not irrational. Please step back and look at the overall picture again.
Please look at the source of the materials, then look at the carrier (i.e. the media). It's not difficult to find out that all the recent negative claims on Leung were from Democratic Party, Liberal Party and the tycoon gangs, and were carried by HKEJ, Sing Tao, Apple Daily.
Please also take a look of Leung's supporters. Those stand out and speak for Leung are those with integrity and good professional track record. I can't see the same quality from the other 2 parties.
Right, to declare -- I have recently changed my stance from indifference to support Leung. I'm a fulltime housewife with tertiary education background and from lower layer of the middle class.
Good to have some rational discussions here, which is not often seen.
The biggest issue I sensed is that people are too desparately looking for a saviour to fight against property tycoons (and here comes CY) that they seem to overlook the potential key risks and price to pay that come with that hope. People are becoming too emotional to allow them to look rationally and hollistically....that's sad.
My declaration...U grad, accounting professional come full time mom. I am not in support of any of the candidates.
At last some rational analysis in bk! Somehow I agree with eko on your point about people are too desperate to locate someone to save them from the monopolies, without realizing the hidden price to pay for their choice.
I am not saying that CY is worse than Tang or vice versa - both are not qualified to be options for me. I am just saying that either one who becomes the CE would cost HK a great deal. For me, I hope the freedom of speech & the rule of law won't be gone, or else we become no difference with people across the border. Yet, I can feel that we have started to lose them already, very gradually.
Myce - I share the same fear here. I love HK and I'd hate to see HK go downhill. HK is already on a lossing streak comparing to our closest competitor Singapore on many fronts e.g. talent, technology, quality of life. And now politics? I hope not. Yet we don't have options. Really sad...but more people seem to be thinking more critically these few days...and the polls are reflecting that trend...so there's still hope on giving pressure to the decision makers to make the right decision on behalf of 7 million people.
Time is the essence for what? For a compromised solution and unknown waters and tons of unanswered questions? HK deserves better than that. 7 million people deserve a much better deal than that.
