Some analysts said that Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor's support rate is not the highest in many media polls, and her future governance is facing impede. The election committee, composed of almost 1,200 people, under which the chief executive was elected, known as the "small circle of elections", was questioned that "the vast majority of citizens have no say in the election of the Chief Executive of Hong Kong." SBS Mandarin Program interviewed a pan-democratic member and Hong Kong legislator Leung Kwok-hung and Hong Kong pro-established people, well-known media Robert Chow. They expressed their views on the acceptance rate of the polls and the ruling future of the new chief executive.
