I'll grant you that in an indirect way, general wage levels in a national economy affect the wage levels of foreigners' jobs that are otherwise totally unrelated. The cost of living in a country usually forces wage levels above subsistence level for any skilled labor. Or to put it another way, the Supply of foreign workers depends on their own needs. If those two science teacher's candidates for Udon Suckathai are willing to accept 45K instead of 95K, then that's the prevailing supply of the laborers. They won't insist on 95K of course, but if they're wise, well qualified and in the career for many years, they'll want at least 50K.
