Akamai and Google do have 100Gbps connections to HKIX so traffic volume should not be low, though not majority.

Anyway, I did post on FB on that day (Nov 12) when CUHK campus was heavily attacked by the Police that HKIX is not really that critical to HK Internet traffic as there are many Internet hubs in HK...

Che-Hoo

no longer with HKIX

In terms of bits, MOST Hong Kong traffic does NOT traverse HKIX.

However, Hong Kong ISPs, almost entirely communicate with each other of HKIX.

Sources like Akamai and Google, however, do not typically traverse HKIX. These are the majority of traffic.

99% of Hong Kong is connected to HKIX, by traverses? No.

knows whether HKIX handles 99% of internet traffic for HK or not.

It's a number.
