The Benefits Of Housing

The days when workers in the United States used to live in housing provided by their companies are long gone. But companies all over China rely on the practice to keep employees living close to the factories and restaurants where they work, and keep the business humming efficiently. One company in China's far west is taking things one step further, using housing as a tool to promote employee loyalty.

Job Hopping Grads Irk Bosses

China produces more university graduates than any other country in the world; over six million this year alone. Now finding employment for that number of jobseekers is a headache at any time - never mind in the present economic climate - so competition is tough. All this would seem to point to a market where employers can pick and choose and those who get jobs will do their best to hang onto them.

But surprisingly, as BON's Andrew Livingstone reports, many bosses are finding their new recruits' loyalty is not what they expected.

Hot Money Hits Hong Kong

Housing prices in Hong Kong have soared and now the government fears that an influx of "hot money" from mainland could create an economic bubble in the sector.

A store in one of the busiest shopping districts in Hong Kong was sold for roughly 90 thousand dollars per square foot last week. That makes it the most expensive retail space in the city. And experts believe soaring real estate prices have been caused by an influx of so-called "hot money" from mainland China.

"Hot money" refers to funds that are controlled by investors who actively seek short-term returns.

Professor Joseph Cheng from the City University of Hong Kong says the most common form of payment for recent property buyers has been cash, often in one lump sum. In contrast, ordinary residents would buy through a long term or ten-to-twenty-year mortgage.
Inside "Chinese ER"

Winter usually brings an upsurge in falls and flus. What's rarely reported is the effect of the bitter cold on the chronically ill – in other words the long-term sick and the elderly. And that effect is particularly felt in hospitals which offer traditional Chinese remedies. BON's Linda Kennedy went behind the scenes in what's effectively Chinese ER.
