$ B- Q$ r9 [; h# ?大家说到底用哪个方式比较好呢？

Moneygram is fast, it takes 10mins to get it to the destination. I tried it twice. The only bad thing is about the currency exchange. They use U.S dollar as a standard, any non-U.S dollar must be converted to U.S. Last year, when CAD was about the same as USD, I sent money to Hong Kong, moneygram was fine. 2 weeks ago, I used it once to send some money to Taiwan, and literally lost about $200 NT(xin tai bi), which is around 5 to 6 CAD.

At the time being(CAD is higher than USD) I think using Western Union is better. But you have to check the currency rate first, ask the people there how much will the recipient ACTUALLY get. Compare it with MoneyGram and decide. Or you can also send paper bills by letter, even with regular airmail, it won't get lose or penalized as long as you wrap all the paper bills(NO COINS!) with 1 or 2 normal paper than can cover them up.

Hope it helps
