    Sorry, squatters. Not homeless. Living in illegal structures.

    I just did a google search but couldn't find any reference. So I withdraw the statement. I do have other things to do as well.

    a simple google search comes up with an answer, but not the one you were looking for.

The monthly allowance usually starts at 50% of previous salary and decreases over time. To receive it, you need to be actively looking for work and may be asked to provide proof of this.

    So, not as generous as you think. Few people who can actually find a decent job would actually chose this. Those who can't find a decent job would turn to criminality if they didn't have this option. So you would have to pay money to run prisons, like in the US. Which one is better?
    Again wrong and no proof!
    The link you gave me it's for people who where jobless for longtime.

    Someone winning the minimum salary who get jobless will get 70 % of is salary during a periode of 7 month to 2 years depending how long he worked for the company

    Well no, it doesn't come up with any answer on the number of people living in illegal structures in HK. You can try yourself.
