What is the working life of Hong Kong people?

2065438+I came to Hong Kong with my second married husband in June 2009, and soon found a job after going through the relevant formalities. Although the monthly income of washing dishes in a canteen is 16000 yuan, it is still not enough for aunts born after 60.

First, I work 10 hours a day in Hong Kong, go to work at 9: 00 in the morning (I go to the company for breakfast 20 minutes in advance), have lunch on time at noon 12 (three dishes, rice is whatever), and eat fruits after dinner, such as oranges, apples and bananas. Have breakfast at 5 pm and work until 7 pm.

You can have an hour's rest from 4: 00 to 5: 00 in the afternoon, because you have finished all the things you should do at this time, so you can work quickly and have an hour's rest in the middle.

I wash dishes in the back kitchen, and sometimes I go to the floor to help cook for the guests after I finish my own business. This is my first job in Hong Kong.

I haven't changed my job for three years and feel good about myself. My colleagues get along well. Maybe I'm used to this way. Some friends from other places asked me to go, and the salary was higher than ours, but I don't intend to jump ship either.

Because this company is a big-name company in Hong Kong, with more than 80 branches and bonuses every quarter. Labor leave is paid leave. I leave on the 7th of every month, and I still have eight days off a year later (I don't want to rest during the big holiday, so I can go out and earn some extra money).

Second, life.

Our home is a public house that my husband applied for. Although the area is not large, the sparrow is small and complete. If anything in the room is damaged, just make a phone call and the property management will help repair it for free.

It took my husband a long time to choose a suitable community to live in. Our community was built on 20 19, with new buildings and facilities. There are restaurants, supermarkets, clinics and vegetable markets downstairs.

Every weekend, my husband will take me to a tea restaurant for tea. It feels good to chat. Although we live in Hong Kong, we are neither rich nor expensive, but the contented are always happy. What about friends?

Third, because I am from the north, my accent is always the third. When I came to Hong Kong, my husband wanted to learn Mandarin from me, so he speaks Mandarin very well now, but I still can't speak Cantonese.

For this reason, I also suffered a lot at work, because all my colleagues in Hong Kong speak Cantonese, and most of the sisters born after 60 can't speak Mandarin, and some even don't understand Mandarin.

I am learning Cantonese from my teacher online now, hoping to break through the Cantonese barrier by the end of this year. ...

Brothers and sisters! Do you think I can learn Cantonese this year? Ha ha!

Hong Kong is one of the cities with the highest cost of living in the world, and the biggest pressure should be housing prices. House prices in Hong Kong are among the highest in the world. Housing prices in Hong Kong are expensive and small. In feet, 10.8 feet is equal to one square meter. Roughly divided into three price points! ~ The price on Hong Kong Island is generally the highest, generally about 2w a foot. Among them, the most expensive peak area can reach 6-8W, and the price in Kowloon is generally around1W.. The price in the New Territories near the urban area is 6000-8000 or even 1W or above.

Second, food prices in Hong Kong are generally above 65,438, which is 0.5 times that of Chinese mainland, a first-tier city, and 3-5 times that of other cities.

3. Hong Kong transportation price: The bus fare is charged by sections, starting from 2 yuan and generally ranging from 2 to 40 yuan. Subway fares are charged in sections, and the most expensive Lo Wu Line runs through 70 yuan.

Fourthly, let me talk about social security in Hong Kong. First, it is called comprehensive social security assistance, which is similar to the minimum living allowance in the Mainland. The government allocates funds to give appropriate assistance to residents whose living standard is lower than a certain level of family income, so as to maintain their minimum living. When the household income of these residents reaches a certain level or they have other resources to maintain their basic living, the relevant assistance will be terminated.

The second is special allowance, such as allowance commonly known as fruit grant. Subsidies are allocated by the government, including the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, children and orphans, and limited subsidies are given to meet their living needs. The contents of this special allowance are: old age allowance; Disability allowance; Compensation scheme for violence and law enforcement casualties; Traffic accident victim assistance scheme.

Third, the employer's responsibility. The government should legislate to bear the liability for compensation to ensure that employees can get economic compensation when they encounter certain accidents during their employment.

Fourth, the mandatory provident fund. A form of social security jointly funded by employers and employees. The MPF is handled by the relevant institutions as a whole, and the principal and interest of the deposit are recovered when employees retire or meet the withdrawal conditions to protect their later life. Although Hong Kong's social security work has made some achievements, there are many good experiences and practices, but there are still many limitations, the biggest of which is that the retirement system for the whole society has not yet been formed, which can not solve the problem of providing for the elderly for most workers. Therefore, Hong Kong people, people in their seventies and eighties, still have to work.

Fifth, Hong Kong is a duty-free port, and all kinds of goods are at least 10% lower than those in the Mainland.

Finally, look at the income of Hong Kong people:

According to the latest statistics of the Hong Kong Government on 20 17:

1, the median income of Hong Kong people is 1.5 million yuan, that is to say, if you earn 1.5 million yuan a month, your income is already more than half that of Hong Kong people.

If your monthly income is above 30,000, your monthly income is already the highest among 20 adults in Hong Kong.

If you are a family with a monthly income of more than 40,000 yuan, you are already in the top 30% of the families in Hong Kong.

4. But to really become the highest income in Hong Kong 10%, the annual income should exceed one million yuan.

Details are as follows:

According to the latest figures of the Census and Statistics Department, excluding foreign domestic helpers, there are currently more than 3410.9 million salaried people in Hong Kong, of which 8910.0 million have a monthly salary ranging from 6.5438+0.49 million yuan, and those with a monthly salary below 6.5438+0.5 million yuan account for more than 44% of the total working population.

In 20 15, the average monthly salary of graduates from eight universities was between 13400-2 1900 yuan, including medical and teaching majors, that is, most university graduates were first jobs, ranking middle among Hong Kong wage earners.

On the contrary, at present, there are more than 236,5438+0,000 people in Hong Kong earning more than 60,000 yuan a month, which is the highest in Hong Kong.

There are also 248,000 people with 40,000-59,900 yuan, ranking first in Hong Kong's total working population 14%.

Taking families as a unit, the latest figures from the Census and Statistics Department show that to become the highest-income 10% family in Hong Kong, the monthly income needs to be as high as 80,000 yuan, equivalent to an annual income of over one million yuan. At present, there are 6.5438+0.6 million families with an annual income of over one million yuan in Hong Kong.

The monthly income of a family is more than 40,000 yuan, that is, a couple earns 20,000 yuan each, and the income is already the highest in Hong Kong, 30%.

On the contrary, at present, more than half of households in Hong Kong earn less than 24,900 yuan, of which 277,000 families earn less than 6,000 yuan a month, accounting for11%of the total.

Hong Kong people have a fast pace of work, so they should work hard. Unlike some government agencies in Chinese mainland, some companies are overstaffed, others are overstaffed, and some people muddle along. The average wage in Hong Kong is about three times that of first-tier cities in the Mainland and five times that of second-and third-tier cities. The cost of living is slightly higher than that of the mainland, but the quality of goods is several times higher than that of the mainland. They enjoy high-quality and high-standard goods and safe food. Why else do so many mainlanders come to Hong Kong to buy milk powder and medicine? Of course, the cost of living is extremely high, but the distribution of government public houses makes the cost of family accommodation much lower than that of the north, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. Of course, the area is not very large, and it is distributed in proportion to the population. However, although their home is not very spacious, it is also comfortable and warm to live in. In fact, many Hong Kong people prefer to live in a small house in Hong Kong after buying houses in Shenzhen and Guangzhou or even building a whole building. In terms of medical care, the technology and equipment are world-class, and no medical insurance is paid, all of them are free. See the clinic, make an appointment by phone, and pay the registration fee, 50 yuan. No matter what disease you see, how much medicine you prescribe is free. See the emergency registration fee 180 yuan, according to the priority of illness, etc. No matter what medicine is used, any operation is free, so the life expectancy in Hong Kong is the highest in the world. Children are free of tuition, but they can apply for free books and lunch. Free application is simple and convenient. After the age of 65, the elderly can receive the fruit grant and apply for comprehensive assistance as needed. If they apply, they will get 100%. Therefore, even if they don't work and have no savings, they still have the ability to join the elderly group to travel to the mainland, and some former singers can also perform with the group. Some old people refuse to accept their old age and want to get a higher income. Even when you are old, you can have many job opportunities, and you can also take part in work to increase your income. Unlike in Chinese mainland, they retired in their fifties. Some ordinary old people who don't retire in their work units can only get a pension of 200 yuan a month in 300 yuan, especially in rural areas. If there are no children to support them, they can only live in their ancestral homes, farm land and collect garbage. When they are sick, they can use the earth to find herbs to treat the disease. It is no exaggeration to spend the rest of your life in poverty and disease. I don't believe that you can feel it deeply if you leave these developed coastal cities in the north, Guangzhou and Shenzhen and go inland to see their lives. I believe many readers are well aware of this. In order to make finance more healthy, long-term, sustainable and effective, Hong Kong managers are not engaged in a purely welfare society like Northern Europe. Healthy, efficient, high-quality, orderly and safe (of course, there are inevitably dark corners in sunny places), which is the working life of ordinary Hong Kong people. Although the narrative is simple as a running account, it is true, accurate and objective.

What is the working life of Hong Kong people? Hong Kong people are very dedicated and homesick. They would rather squeeze into a small room of 10 square meter than leave Hong Kong. I once saw a Hong Kong program in which the host wanted to buy a house in the Mainland. Immediately, another person replied: you can't get along in your own place, and there is no place for you in other people's places! This is also a very realistic problem. Relatives and friends are all in Hong Kong. It is unrealistic to come to the mainland and start all over again. Just as we don't want to leave our hometown, Hong Kong locals certainly don't want to leave, and everything related to local residence, social welfare, children's education and future generations can't be separated.

Furthermore, under the special historical background of Hong Kong, the Four Little Dragons in Asia, which have gradually become one of the economic and trade centers, have such a solid foundation. I believe that the charm of this city is definitely not as superficial as our tourists see. Otherwise, how could so many people go to Hong Kong? Just like the north, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, there are still so many people crowded there every year.

Hong Kong is a developed city in the world and one of the places where human wealth is most concentrated. Its huge foreign exchange reserves and amazing overseas assets kill most countries! Hong Kong businessmen have invested and built factories in various parts of the Pearl River Delta, and the manufacturing industry is strong. Hong Kong has a good welfare system, and its passport is universal. It is prosperous and stable, a veritable Pearl of the Orient, a world financial center and an example for cities all over the world to learn from. ...

No matter how many tall buildings you build, humanistic quality and social welfare are the basis for people to enter this city. A rich man gets together to invest in the cold capital of all beings, which makes the people who come here full of chill, no vitality and hope. Whether it is a city of science and technology or a city of the future, it is king to let people walk leisurely in cement. Hong Kong is such a city!

What is the working life of Hong Kong people? Hong Kong people are truly worthy of respect. I have worked in Hong Kong and worked with Hong Kong people. They are studious, enthusiastic, courteous and positive! There is a feeling of heaven! As for many Hong Kong people, they would rather live in a small room of 10 square meter than leave Hong Kong. It can only be said that this understanding is superficial. They don't understand the welfare, education and infrastructure of Hong Kong society. According to this concept, the building in Shanghai, Beijing, Shenzhen and Guangzhou is not as good as that in my fifth-tier city. Just build a five-story building in my hometown! Can you compare it like this? In terms of education, is Peking University Tsinghua ranked higher than HKU? Is China higher than Hong Kong in terms of welfare? According to the degree of internationalization, is there any city in China that can compare?

Do you have any objection to the above views?

Unemployment is low, but prices are high.

Hong Kong people have just started to work with their colleagues in Hong Kong. Hong Kong is warm, friendly and generous, but occasionally they will come to a dead end. They also have a gossip mouth for entertainment. They are very diligent and don't want to disturb you. You don't want to disturb him. Working hours are your private time after work. It is generally necessary to say hello in advance, which is a disregard for human feelings. If local people really like this and don't like big tea and big meals, most AA pays. If you encounter difficulties on the road, most people will take the initiative to help, and there is a feeling that time is very important and often not enough. Some people say that Hong Kong people are poor and busy, but this is a good opportunity for those who can't help it.

Both my relatives are in Hong Kong. One is the daughter of my mother's sister. Because she married that husband, owned a small old building, and took care of the children at home when giving birth. The other is that my cousin is married to an Englishman and works in a bank in Hong Kong instead of going to work. This Buddhist wife has time to play golf with her husband. During this time, she has been doing something about releasing volunteers. I said that it is enough for her to do this two or three times a year.

As an old Hong Kong immigrant, I feel that I absolutely have a say in this issue.

Hong Kong people are really serious, careful and active. In any industry, everyone will know that they must be worthy of the boss when they get paid. In the past, Andy Lau advertised and told everyone to be conscientious and have a good attitude. Another reason here is that the management system is relatively sound, with division of labor and cooperation and accountability, so the overall working attitude of Hong Kong people is still good.

What is life like now? There is an old saying in Guangdong that rice breeds hundreds of people, but I feel that most people around me are still comfortable. In terms of basic necessities, everything is fine except housing. Especially the food is very good! The vegetable market is rich in materials and moderate in price. You can find anything you want. Supermarkets are better. There are all kinds of materials all over the world. The only difference is how much money you have in your pocket and what you can afford. Restaurants are also all-inclusive, with different levels and choices.

Generally speaking, it is very comfortable in Hong Kong.

Hong Kong is a shopping paradise, but the people behind the shopping paradise have a glamorous life and a hard life.

As one of the four little dragons in Asia and an international financial and trade center, Hong Kong has great development potential.

But there are different levels of people in Hong Kong.

Some people live in luxury houses in the middle of the mountain, and some families are crowded into small rental houses.

There are rich people, senior financial elites, white-collar workers, and many jobs are done at the grassroots level for a living.

In Hong Kong, the rich are too rich to spill oil, and the poor are too poor to eat.

Hong Kong is also a place where the rich live together. Among them, we know that Li Ka-shing, Lee Shau Kee, Guo Desheng and Zheng Yutong are very famous in Hong Kong.

The four families can be said to control many industries in Hong Kong's economy.

As long as you live and work in Hongkong, you can't live without Li Ka-shing.

For example, Watson's, Baijia Supermarket, household appliances, housing and many others all have the shadow of Li Ka-shing.

Many people are working for the four families in Hong Kong, and food, clothing, housing and transportation are inseparable from the four families.

For a giant like Li Ka-shing, their life must be very good. They go in and out of bodyguards and live in a mansion in the mid-levels of Hong Kong.

The life of the rich is also very luxurious, with children's birthday parties, full moon wine, children 100 days, grand weddings and daily gatherings of celebrities.

I remember, just like in 2006, when Xu Ziqi and Lee Shau Kee's son Li Ka-shing got married, the sensational wedding made many people dare not imagine.

More than 1 10,000 wedding dresses, 300 million private jets, 20 million diamond rings and 500,000 bouquets in the air. The whole wedding cost is calculated in hundreds of millions of yuan.

Xu Ziqi also got the name of hundreds of billions of daughter-in-law.

The wedding of the giants in Hong Kong.

He Chaoqiong, the daughter of the gambling king, was married in 199 1 century. Many people were not rich at that time, but the wedding caused a sensation. Millions of wedding dresses, hundreds of millions of dowry, days and nights of wedding banquets are extremely luxurious.

The average rich person can't earn money for a wedding in his life.

In addition to the top tycoons, there are also a class of white-collar workers and top elites.

For example, Hong Kong's financial industry and trade industry are very developed, and many of them are engaged in securities, banks and investment banks.

Then these people must earn millions a year.

For example, I used to have some colleagues as the company's financial director, which can be said to be an annual salary of one million.

Therefore, the annual salary of one million in Hong Kong is neither too much nor too little, but it is still good for many people at the bottom of Hong Kong.

If he scrimps himself and spends less at home, the house price in Hong Kong will be more than 200,000, or 100, it will be 20 million.

If a senior white-collar worker earns 2 million yuan a year, he will have to work for 10 years before he can buy a house in full.

Or you can work for a few years.

However, some even senior white-collar workers can't afford to buy a house, because some people have higher requirements for themselves and higher consumption, so it is more difficult to buy a house.

The life of white-collar workers in Hong Kong is also rather sad, with a shiny surface and a suit and tie every day.

However, many white-collar workers work under high pressure. Don't think that white-collar workers must sit in the office easily and enjoy air conditioning. In fact, white-collar workers also have their own sadness and hard work.

White-collar workers are too competitive, afraid of being laid off, and must constantly improve their abilities and so on.

In addition to these senior white-collar workers and some local tyrants in Hong Kong, many of them are ordinary people living at the grassroots level.

Some people work as salespeople in supermarkets, or as storekeepers or cleaners, or as administrative clerks.

Anyway, every position has it. In fact, the average salary is about 1 to 20 thousand.

In fact, in Hong Kong, the salary of 1000 to 20000 is really not much, because it costs more than 6000 to rent a small single room there.

The most profound thing is that some time ago in Hong Kong, prices in Hong Kong really skyrocketed, which was terrible.

Ordinary people take the salary of 1 10,000 or so and bear the rent. Maybe the family lives in a small space.

I also read on the Internet that many mainland girls married to Hong Kong also live in small spaces.

The standard of living in Hong Kong is very high. Some people would rather live in a small house of tens of square meters than leave Hong Kong, because Hong Kong can be said to be their birthplace and their roots.

I have taken root in Hong Kong. If I live somewhere else, I'm really not used to it.

Just like ordinary white-collar workers here, Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen have a high standard of living.

Why do some young people always take root in these big cities and are unwilling to leave, but still work hard in this city? In fact, he has the same reason.

Because the medical insurance subsidy system in Hong Kong is relatively perfect, and Hong Kong people have a sense of superiority, this is what we said.

Then, if Hong Kong people come to live here, they might as well stay in Hong Kong if they have to struggle again and start over. In addition, finance and trade there are more prosperous, which can provide various employment opportunities and enjoy better welfare benefits.

Hong Kong people give me the impression that they have certain obsessive-compulsive disorder at work and are more serious and careful.

For example, I used to have a boss who was such a person. He works very hard and seriously. If he doesn't achieve this goal at work, he won't have to rest at noon. In other words, this resilience is very strong, and Hong Kong people attach great importance to this concept of time and work efficiency.

If I used to work with Hong Kong, I can also find some good advantages of them, and my perseverance in my work is also worth learning.

Most people will think that Hong Kong people are aloof and a little indifferent, so maybe I think it may be cultural differences.

For example, some differences in language or living habits will arouse everyone's curiosity.

We also think that Hong Kong people are mysterious. In fact, Hong Kong people are ordinary people, and there is nothing tall. Everyone is equal.

We don't need to think that they are above us. We are all ordinary people.
