Whenever semi-authoritarian governments conduct polls, they never release the logistics of the poll (who was interviewed, margin of error, etc.). Polls like these mean nothing without grounding. Besides, I'm very curious to know if Hong Kong residents really care little about the loss of political freedoms they've seen in the last 8 years.

According to a survey conducted by Committee on the Promotion of Civic Education, Hong Kong, most Hong Kong citizens feel proud of the remarkable achievements China has made. Among the total interviewees, 73 percent expressed their proudness of being Chinese.

And any good pollster would probably laugh at this type of question, since it doesn't provide context for what HK residents think of as "Chinese" nor what their views are on the Chinese government itself. This amounts more to a rubber stamp that the CCP is glad to have than anything else.

UPDATE: Case in point, today's NYTimes article about tens of thousands of people turning out in Hong Kong to commemorate the Tiananmen Square massacre. Obviously, there is some disconnect between pride of being Chinese and and pride in the Chinese government. Link
