I got curious about how HK compared to Australia, particularly since Australia is considered to be expensive by many people. So I took the prices that Lowkoon and Blowback quoted, and tabled them along with the Australian equivalent. I converted the HK$ amount to express it in Australian dollars.
Then I guessed at the usage per year for each item, and got an annual total, which is expressed in Australian dollars.
Ouch.

Yes Adam, and millions of people in Africa live on less than $2 a day, most unfortunate, but not what we are discussing here.
