Political Stability indicator measures perceptions of the likelihood that the government will be destabilised or overthrown by unconstitutional or violent means, including politically motivated violence and terrorism. The measure ranges from approximately -2.5 (weak) to 2.5 (strong) governance performance. The World Bank provides data for Hong Kong from 1996 to 2017. The average value for Hong Kong during that period was 0.98 points with a minimum of 0.58 points in 1996 and a maximum of 1.34 points in 2005. In 2017, the Political Stability indicator was 0.85, which was in the middle rank (World Bank, 2017).
