Slightly tangential, but it’s interesting that Hong Kong’s safety index is higher than one of Singapore, considering the apparently-stricter overall regulations in the latter city. They don’t seem to disclose the sources for safety & crime indices, though I assume they used a trustworthy source.
EDIT: They do credit the source to numbeo.com, which doesn’t rely on government stats (https://www.numbeo.com/crime/ https://www.numbeo.com/crime/).
- zadokshi 7y agoWhat do you suppose the source for crime rate statistics in Hong Kong/China would be? What do you think is the trustworthiness of that source? Given the answers to these question I am not sure helpful this analysis is.
- goblin89 7y ago> What do you think is the trustworthiness of that source? Relative to Singapore about the same, assuming they used government-provided stats.
