I believe the actual labour problem would be much worse than this since there is a number of people who are working part time with even lower wages, and a number of people who are unemployed at all.6 X) E! }9 b" R

Our 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).( I6 c. X# [! V/ A

My 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.0 F! R4 [! g8 c- B, V( Q' o3 m# Z

Honestly even right now, it would be easier for a person to find a job and get better pay in Canada or even US than in HK.
