美世指出,調查的目的是幫助政府和企業確定外派員工的待遇。該公司研究員帕拉卡堤(Slagin Parakatil)表示﹕「在當前金融危機的影響下,跨國公司正為削減成本而評估國際外派員工政策。」此外,美世還公布了09年最佳基建城市排行榜,受惠於機場設施及交通網絡完善,新加坡名列榜首,香港和倫敦 並列第8。
香港最佳居住排名僅70,與去年排名一樣,但以基建而論則名列全球第8位。紐約最佳居住地區排名49﹔以基建而論僅名列全球第32位。NY真唔掂! 睇睇下,溫哥華又幾正喎,最佳居住地區排名第4位﹔基建則名列全球第6。唔知加政府收唔收D美國窮鬼呢?(你咪發夢啦!加拿大出名艱難帶同勢利! 哼!唔駛諗!)
今晚又煮咗儿個餸: 髮菜豉蒸豆腐; 蒜蓉清炒新鮮什菇﹔欖角蒸鰂魚。我今天終於鋪番張膠桌布,係咪似樣小小?
