Abstract

The Country Opinion Survey in China assists the World Bank Group (WBG) in gaining a better understanding of how stakeholders in China perceive the WBG. It provides the WBG with systematic feedback from national and local governments, multilateral/bilateral agencies, media, academia, the private sector, and civil society in China on 1) their views regarding the general environment in China; 2) their overall attitudes toward the WBG in China; 3) overall impressions of the WBG’s effectiveness and results, knowledge work and activities, and communication and information sharing in China; and 4) their perceptions of the WBG’s future role in China.

Sampling

Sampling Procedure

From March to April 2022, 652 stakeholders of the WBG in China were invited to provide their opinions on the WBG’s work in the country by participating in a Country Opinion Survey. Participants were drawn from the employees of ministries/ministerial departments/ implementation agencies; Project Management Units (PMUs) overseeing implementation of WBG projects; consultants/contractors working on WBG-supported projects/programs; local governments; independent government institutions; the judicial system; state-owned enterprises; bilateral and multilateral agencies; private sector organizations; the financial sector/private banks; private foundations; NGOs and community based organizations; professional/trade associations; youth groups; academia/research institutes/think tanks; and the media.

Response Rate

The response rate was 60%

Weighting

The results in this year’s Country Survey were compared to those in the Country Survey conducted in FY’19 (response rate was 29%, N=157). Comparing responses across Country Surveys reflect changes in attitudes over time, but also changes in respondent samples and changes to the survey instrument itself. To reduce the influence of the latter factor, only those questions with similar response scales/options were analyzed. In FY’22, the increased outreach and subsequent number of survey respondents from local government is to be commended but should be kept in mind when interpreting the results of the past year comparisons – some differences in the years comparisons analyses may be a result of differences in the stakeholder compositions, not just changes over time. The original respondent samples from the FY’19 and FY’22 Country Surveys are listed in the table in the Methodology section of the survey report.
