Adrien Gagnon and ESDlife Survey Reveals: Nearly 60% Suffer from Both 'Trouble Falling Asleep' and 'Waking Easily'
Over 80% of Employees Take Sick Leave Due to Sleep Deprivation; Mondays Are the Most Popular 'Sickie' Days Economic downturn: 91% of respondents feel stressed from work and life 81% report frequent awakenings ; 64% have trouble falling asleep – two distinct sleep problems, doctor explain ; 64% – two distinct sleep problems, doctor explain 78% say stress impacts sleep quality 80% hope to resolve both types of sleep problems; 85% seek long-term sleep solutions Dual Action Release health supplements suggested by pharmacist to tackle both sleep problems HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 5 June 2025 – As the economic outlook remains gloomy, stress levels among Hongkongers continue to rise. A recent survey shows that many locals feel overwhelmed by stress, which disrupts their sleep and creates a vicious cycle that severely affects both their emotional well-being and physical health. In light of this, Adrien Gagnon commissioned ESDlife to conduct the 'Hong Kong Sleep and Stress Survey' in May 2025. The online survey interviewed 540 respondents in Hong Kong to examine sleep challenges and stress triggers. The goal was to raise awareness about sleep health and stress management, and to guide the public toward natural, long-lasting solutions to improve both 'difficulty falling asleep' and 'waking easily.' Dr. Ka Yau Raymond Wong, Specialist in Psychiatry (center), Mr. Ian Cheung, Registered Pharmacist (left), and Ms. Casey Chow, Head of Media Business at ESDlife (right) participated in the 'Hong Kong Sleep and Stress Survey' press conference. 81% of Workers Skip Work Due to Sleep Deprivation Mondays Most Common for Sick Leave as Employees Create Their Own Mini-Holidays Under mounting pressure, many employees admit to 'calling in sick' just to take a breather. The survey reveals that 82% have considered taking sick leave simply to avoid work. Among them, 81% cited sleep deprivation, while 64% blamed overwhelming stress. Additionally, 64% of respondents reported having at least one 'sickie' impulse per month, a sign that stress has deeply impacted their mental and physical health. When asked about their preferred sick days, the top choices were Mondays (43%), after long holidays (25%), Fridays (24%), the day after working overtime (24%), and rainy or cold days (18%). (See Table 1) ADVERTISEMENT 64% Struggle to Fall Asleep, 81% Wake Easily Nearly 60% Suffer from Both Sleep Problems; 80% Seek Dual-Solution Treatments Sleep problems top the list of modern-day work-life struggles. Among respondents, 64% reported trouble falling asleep, and a significant 81% said they wake up easily. Almost 60% experience both sleep problems simultaneously. However, 77% said they lack effective methods to address both sleep problems at once. A full 80% expressed a desire for dual action release solutions. Psychiatrist Dr. Ka Yau Wong, Raymond explained: 'Difficulty falling asleep and waking easily are two different sleep disorders. Difficulty falling asleep is usually stress-related, while waking easily may be linked to melatonin levels. Melatonin is only released in the dark, its production decreases with daylight or screen exposure. Dual action release melatonin supplements can provide extended support by releasing melatonin in two phases, helping the body fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer. To tackle both sleep problems effectively, one must manage stress and regulate melatonin to improve the sleep cycle and overall sleep quality.' 91% of Hongkongers Suffer from Stress Due to Work and Life Pressures 87% Say Stress Affects Their Sleep Quality Beyond sleep problems, the primary reason workers want to skip work is stress. The survey found that 91% of respondents are currently dealing with stress from work and life, and 83% reported a sense of helplessness. This highlights the prevalence of stress among Hongkongers. Stress was shown to cause sleep problems (78%), irritability (58%), loss of motivation (40%), lower work efficiency (34%), and even social withdrawal (33%) (see Table 2). Alarmingly, 76% of respondents felt more stressed this year than last, yet 40% admitted they are not addressing it and simply hoping it will resolve itself. Meanwhile, 87% noted that stress has negatively impacted their sleep quality. Dr. Wong warned: 'Stress-related sleep problems needs timely attention. Prolonged avoidance of stress without proper relief could worsen the condition, increasing the risk of anxiety, depression, and further deterioration in sleep quality.' 85% Seek Long-Lasting Sleep Solutions Pharmacist Recommend Dual Action Release Supplements for Dual Sleep Problems With nearly 60% experiencing both difficulty falling asleep and waking easily, 85% of respondents said they are looking for long-lasting sleep solutions. Registered pharmacist Mr. Ian Cheung advised: 'Those dealing with dual insomnia problems may benefit from melatonin supplements with a 'dual action release' formula for comprehensive effect. These supplements provide an initial fast release to help you fall asleep, followed by a slow, sustained release that maintains melatonin levels overnight, tackling both early and mid-sleep disturbances. Some dual action release melatonin products combine Western herbal ingredients to address stress-related insomnia. If your sleep problems are caused by stress, consider formulas that include calming Western herbs.' ADVERTISEMENT Nearly 60% Are Aware of Western Herbs for Stress Relief 72% Will Consider Herbal Supplements for Stress Reduction When it comes to stress and sleep improvement, most respondents prefer natural solutions. 'Western herbs like Eschscholzia californica and Hops are scientifically proven to ease stress and anxiety,' Cheung explained. 'They can help improve sleep quality and are suitable for those who prefer natural remedies. Reducing stress naturally can prevent work avoidance and maintain daily function.' The survey also revealed that 59% of respondents were aware that Western herbal supplements can aid in sleep and stress relief. When selecting health supplements, 63% prefer Western brands, and 72% are willing to try herbal ingredients for stress relief. Cheung added, 'If symptoms persist despite using natural products, professional medical consultation should be considered.'

Emerging markets are surging amid legitimate optimism
Emerging markets are pushing higher again, and this time, the momentum isn't misplaced. Behind the move is a growing body of evidence that the world's most dynamic developing economies are demonstrating real economic resilience, despite a chaotic external backdrop. For investors, it's a signal that deserves immediate attention. ADVERTISEMENT The surge in sentiment has been supported by improved financial market conditions, stronger currencies, and narrowing bond spreads. Business surveys across Asia, Latin America, and parts of Africa are showing signs of renewed confidence. Equity inflows are rising, and most importantly, this isn't happening in a vacuum. Domestic demand in key economies, such as India, Brazil, China, is holding up under pressure. Investment pipelines are active, consumption is steady, fiscal authorities are continuing to support internal growth engines while inflation stabilizes, and central banks in these markets have, in many cases, built credibility by managing monetary conditions proactively. This combination is drawing capital. None of this implies that the broader global environment is benign. The OECD has just downgraded its global growth forecast. Trade uncertainty, partly driven by the United States' renewed tariff regime under President Trump, remains a persistent threat. But emerging markets are proving they're not passive players in this story. ADVERTISEMENT Some are less directly exposed to the US economically. Others are adapting in ways advanced economies haven't yet matched. In recent months, we've seen evidence of supply chain diversification, targeted currency interventions to manage volatility, and increasingly localized energy transitions in countries where energy policy isn't caught in political paralysis. There's also the dollar dynamic. A softer US dollar is offering emerging markets a window. Dollar denominated debt burdens are easing, allowing governments and corporates to service obligations more efficiently. For international investors, this reduces repayment risk and boosts the appeal of local-currency bonds and equities in markets that had previously priced in excessive external pressure. Sentiment has also improved following the partial rollback of Trump's 'Liberation Day' tariffs. While uncertainty remains, the retreat from some of the most punitive measures has eased concerns over a sudden shock to global trade flows. For emerging markets, this shift has meant more than just an improvement in headline risk. It's reopened space for asset repricing. We've already seen this reflected in EM bond spreads, which have tightened against US Treasuries in recent weeks. Currencies that had been under pressure, like the Brazilian real and the Indian rupee, have regained footing. This is the market acknowledging that fundamentals in many of these economies remain intact despite the noise coming from Washington and other developed capitals. What stands out most is the policy contrast. In several advanced economies, monetary and fiscal tools are constrained—either by debt ceilings, political deadlock, or inflation expectations. In many emerging markets, those tools remain available. Central banks in Latin America, for instance, have already raised rates and created room to cut. This puts them in a stronger forward position than many G7 peers. At the same time, energy policy in emerging markets is moving in a clearer direction. While the US retreats from its green energy commitments, countries from Southeast Asia to Sub-Saharan Africa are pushing ahead with clean and affordable energy solutions, often backed by multilateral institutions and regional partnerships. These transitions are unlocking new capital flows and investment themes that are only beginning to be priced in. Supply chain resilience is another factor driving structural reallocation. With multinationals under pressure to diversify away from single-country dependencies, emerging markets—especially those with political stability, labour depth, and infrastructure readiness—are stepping in. Investors who view EM exposure as a high-volatility add-on to a developed market core may miss the point. The current rebalancing is more fundamental. It's about aligning with growth, where it's available, and stability, where it's being actively built. Yes, risk remains—and always will. However, the return outlook in real terms, adjusted for inflation and currency, increasingly favours selectively chosen EM allocations over a blanket overweight to legacy markets. Of course, not all emerging markets are positioned equally. Countries with fragile current accounts, poor governance, or inconsistent monetary policy remain vulnerable to external shocks. yet those with strong domestic demand, manageable debt loads, and credible institutions are showing they can manage global volatility with greater confidence than they could a decade ago. What's clear is that investors need to rethink the way they approach these regions. EM exposure should no longer be treated as peripheral or tactical. In a world where policy in developed economies is becoming more reactive, EM policy—where credible—is increasingly strategic. The opportunity now lies not in riding a risk rebound, but in identifying where long-term value is emerging ahead of full recognition. This requires active allocation with solid financial advice, a close understanding of political and monetary developments, and an appreciation for the growing role these economies play in global capital markets.
