Yesterday, I watched the HK news online....
' {" Y1 E9 z! x# l& N$ C0 z. X0 SIt says around 400 thousands people in HK earn less than 30 HKdollars per hour.

, l& n. C& P# [% q. Y8 LOur minimum wage for a full time employee for our province is $9.5 Canadian dollars per hour(probably around 71 HK dollars).  So as long as you are full time employed, the employer will needs to pay you $9.5 per hour (even you are just working in McDonalds)."

8 N; U( M, s9 l( v* bMy conclusion is, if HK government doesn't set up a rule for the minimum wage, the basic salary would only get lower and lower because the employers would only push it as low as it can be.2 C9 S/ f! P6 L

I personally don't like Canada that much.....but the condition in HK is just 10 times worse than Canada.....
