I agree that lotta HK people treat maids like shit, but my aunt and family friends in HK had maids and they treated her like family. I think it's those greedy maids that's messing around with HK law |

Not really. They have done survey on this. If the contract is redone with minimal wage, Owners can easily tax them back on Shelter and food expense. It will never work out to the benefit of the maids in terms of pay increases. What I am really pissed is that The maids knew that they were not given the right to permanent residency when they were applying for their visas. This is the exact terms of foreign labor when they signed up. These maids are hired foreign workers. They are not (and are not qualified) for immigration. This is the terms given and they accepted when they signed the Visa. Think of it this way, if basic law and rights are given to these people, not only will it have a huge impact on the welfare and social funding in HK, These people never paid taxes to HK government. Look at the picture above from asian_XL, the social funding and welfare in HK is already next to null for low income citizens. It will also serve as a way for people to freely "immigrate" into HK. As long as there is a barer for work contract, they will be granted through. The whole immigration system of scanning for qualified citizen goes down the drain, and this turns into legal human smuggling. Its sort of like the Vietnamese Refugees smuggling back in the 60's to 80's for Hong Kong, but this time they bend the law to do it instead of jumping through wires. If anyone knows of the Refugees back in the days, you would know how much impact it costed the city. Think of Vancouver suddenly flooded with non tax paying Chinese people, all asking for housing, healthcare, EI, and retirement benefits. Oh wait, that's already been done :smug: |
To be honest, HK already has one of the most relaxed immigration rules. What other country can you simply marry someone who has a HKID and get residency rights with barely any check and within a month. Or be able to buy resident rights or be able to work in HK by just being 'white' ROFL. |
