labor - Shortages keep on making headlines

The shortage of migrant workers, especially felt in the southern Pearl River Delta, keeps on making waves. Since the story hit the media, local governments have gone out to end the largest misuses of migrants in the economic powerhouses, and made sure that they actually got their low salaries - that was not really a solid tradation.
The Ministry of Labour and Social Security has actually sent out team to investigate the problem, writes The Standard today. The conclusions are not new: wages have not met the increasing costs.
Also The Financial Times uses the report to repeat the story.
