Featuring local and international church-related news, Kung Kao Po's coverage also includes a wide variety of topics, from education to health. A kid-oriented supplement (Joyful Youth) is attached in every issue of the newspaper. Pastoral letters from the Bishop of Hong Kong in different ecclesiastical seasons and special pastoral letters regarding certain issues are also published in Kung Kao Po.

Despite being sold only in Catholic parishes of Hong Kong and distributed across hospitals of Hong Kong, Kung Kao Po is also available through subscription, making it available to all Chinese-speaking Roman Catholics abroad. Kung Kao Po's back issues are available online through its former website, which preserves issues published before 25 September 2011. Audio edition of the newspaper, recorded in Cantonese, is also available in MP3 format in the website.

Kung Kao Po has become known to the general populace of Hong Kong in recent years, owing to its editorials and columns, often cited by Hong Kong's mainstream media outlets, on politics and social issues.
