Abstract: This report presents a part of the findings from the Hong Kong Online Public Opinion Data Mining Project (http://www.webopinion.hk/) that aims to collect and analyze online public opinion towards different issues and topics in Hong Kong. The report provides an overview of public opinion on a variety of topics such as public figures, organizations, and social issues. A total of 12 online platforms including discussion forums, news portal sites, and online news media are included in the analysis (for methodological details, see Text-Mining Online Public Opinion in Hong Kong: Methods and Procedures https://osf.io/preprints/socarxiv/b2mex/). The time span of the analysis in this report is from January 2000 (i.e., the earliest data point obtained) to June 2017 (i.e., the end of the third Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying’s administration).
