That is Hong Kong dollars…….. so NZ$4.69 per hour

Looks like the workers are very happy as well all smiling on the billboard.

Simon Bridges should run a series of billboards similar announcing how happy New Zealand workers are to be getting NZ$4.69 an hour.

Don’t worry – When RedGreen form the next government your $30 will soon be worth $5.96 too.
