Why???you're not supposed to work below 18,

The basis of the legal system (in HK and most other places) is that what is not prohibited is allowed. Please could you point to the law which prohibits under-18s working? (There are specific ones regarding working as a prostitute, selling alcohol and some others, but no overall ban that I am aware of).

hey my post here was deleted..

basically I would advise anyone who is 15 not to ask for just $300 a month -

that would be exploitation!

if you are cleaning cars or something then I think at least minimum wage.. which is what 28 an hour..

note I said at least minimum - you could and should try for more!
