HKG 07R Runway Incursion 23th Dec 1300Z

Does anyone bother looking out of the window nowadays?

I have a couple of problems with this incident

1. Why wasn't the ATCO not taken out of service after the runway incursion?

2. Did the ATCO not look outside when he issued the departure clearance to HKA333?

3. CX Cargo - The Pilot Monitoring really needs to go back and do his comm's ground school again or have his ICAO English LPR revoked! Totally unacceptable for a PPL Pilot, let alone an ATPL flight crew.

4. Did the CRK flight crew not look outside either? With 8K vis you can see the end of the runway.

We're going to end up with a massive firework display just like the one in Tenerife one day!
