If you're invited by a friend, then it is mostly likely that you have
been cheated!
Someone may be laughing behind your back: "what a sucker!" ;-) ;-)
It seems cheating each other has becoming a fa****onable and favorite
pastime among the patriotic Chinese.
If I remember correctly, as early as 1998, the official minimum wage in
Australia was already set at A$10.00 an hour, so the 350.00 per person
that Chinese embassy re****tedly to have paid each Chinese student to
fake as "patriots" is only roughly 3 times the minimum wages, it is
quite believable.
To answer your question: the last time I received "daily salary" was
back in December 31st of 1999, all the telecommunication companies were
worried that international terrorists may attack communication
facilities around the world, at the dawn of the new century. My former
employer then Nortel Networks Australia had offered 6 times the normal
pay looking for paid volunteers to guard the communication
infrastructures around the world, I volunteered for the ****ft between
1999-12-31 22:00 LST (Melbourne) to 2000-01-01 06:00 LST, The impression
I still remember for that night is the beautiful fireworks in the skies
above Melbourne, but I don't remember exactly how much I was paid for
that 8 hours, vaguely I recall that it was between A$2000.00 to 3000.00
after tax.
I have returned to Toronto Canada for near 6 years now, once a while I
will join Fa Lungong's march in China town (for free, of cause), I often
gladly join any group to protest against Chinese government's brutal and
bloody colonization of Tibet. Free Tibet! Shame on China!
