Contributing sentiments towards policy:

49% : Some business groups in Hong Kong have backed campaigns by lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) groups to have same-sex marriage recognized in the Asian financial hub as a means of attracting top talent.
44% : The high court refused to recognize full marriage equality for homosexual couples but said the government had a responsibility "to provide them with a sense of legitimacy, dispelling any sense that they belong to an inferior class of persons whose relationship is undeserving of recognition."
