        HK citizens lack understanding of gender-based violence
        (Xinhua)
        Updated: 2004-04-30 20:50

        A majority of Hong Kong citizens do not have a clear understanding of gender-based violence and they often overlook the problem of psychological abuse, said a survey released Friday.

        The survey was conducted in April by Amnesty International Hong Kong regarding Hong Kong citizens' understanding of gender-based violence.

        As shown in the result, 66.6 percent of female respondents admit that they have experienced different forms of violence carried out by men against them, but only 3.6 percent admit what they have experienced were gender-based violence.

        The survey also shows that when women experience violence at work, 47.1 percent respondents will choose to talk to friends, 24. 3 percent will talk to family members, and 29.4 percent will report to the police.

        The results reflect that the awareness of gender-based violence is very low and that sufferers will choose to talk to non professionals such as friends or family members, who do not have the skills to handle the problem.

        It is suggested that, to address the problem of violence at work, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government and non-governmental organizations need to collaborate to raise awareness about the problem.

        With more information and publicity, when violence against women occurs, the public will then be more aware of what kind of support and services are available, and how and where to access these services.

        Amnesty International launched a six-year international campaign to fight against violence in 2004.
