2.4 Respondents' worries about self-rule:
Over half of the respondents were worried whether Hong Kong's social system would change after 1997. The greatest worries were drastic changes in the economic system and China's interference in Hong Kong's internal affairs (almost or exceeding 50%). About 20% or more said they were not worried, while the same percentage had comment or gave no reply. (See Table 15)
