Yesterday, I watched the HK news online..../ b+ t# N# ^/ w+ m
It says around 400 thousands people in HK earn less than 30 HKdollars per hour.

When I heard the news, the first thing I had in mind was "30 HK dollars is like $4 Canadian dollars......"$ O1 u+ l! f. i

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).

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.# p- K" `$ `6 ~: Y$ g
