      I meant the publisher's pay SHHK royalties. The money is in turn used to fund the 5% expeditures required for government-aided schools. So the money generated from royalties will still be used back on the schools.
      Typically the publisher gets 90%. Authors get 10%. It is really very little money for SHHK unless they had very preferential terms that are atypical.

      Hmmmm... 5% of expenditures. Does that mean that govt aided schools are 95% funded by the govt from taxpayers' money? How does it work?

        If the company employs your team to do research… and each team member puts in effort… do you own the product or the company? if someone pays money for the product and you spilt the money within your team for a nice makan for your team members… is it right?


        MOE funds the school… MOE pay the teachers… is it not right to say that MOE owns the work? The exam papers? Unless the teachers don’t develop those papers during working hours but during their own private time to make those questions?

        IMO, all schools should surrender all the papers to MOE…

        and MOE make it available for download.

          If all schools submit their exam papers to MOE, vendors may be out of business…but then how many of us will have time to print out ? Ink, paper and time no joke. We, the parents will be the ones who benefit the most if MOE uploads all of them.

            Yes. The government-aided school has to pay 5% of the expenditure while government pay the other 95%.
