$1 an hour! Man you'd have a queue of willing workers longer than the Great Wall, paying those rates.


Try between $0.28 and $0.63 per hour for the minimum wage in China. http://www.businessweek.com/magazine...8/b4011001.htm And that's if your employer is paying the "official" minimum wage set by local authorities. Good luck with that if you're working on the black.

And that's if it isn't fined away from you for various infractions, like taking too long in the bathroom: http://www.businessweek.com/2000/00_40/b3701119.htm
