    I haven't drawn such a conclusion. Anyway, the brush stroke quality or the message?

    Or perhaps the very low minimum wage and the lack of technical advancement in HK building codes low tech meaning skills and pay stay low and housing stock low quality.

    That's about the right wage for this type of job in a developed city.

    Or do you suggest imported labour should be used to suppress wages for property developers?

    I have no agenda. If there is a thread about the removal of political slogans and someone starts talking about brush stroke quality and the wages a tiler should earn it just seems odd and worth asking why this rather distractionary tangent was interjected.

    Still the same two questions
    Do you think the slogans were removed because of their message of painting quality?
    Do you think skilled workers wages should be suppressed with low cost imported labour rather than technology and skills upgrades?

    While Japan, Taiwan and Europe push ahead with modular kitchen and bathroom pods HK sticks to the 1970's approach by throwing cheap labour at it whilst making the working poor even poorer.
