Good luck to them. Cathay and Emirates are after South Africans too. Cathay loves them as most are experienced, capable pilots. Also, Hong Kong is popular with Saffers as if they stay for seven years and keep their noses clean the HK government gives them a 'permanent ID card' (residency).

Also, there is speculation that the ANC is going to tax South Africans wherever they live (to milk the 'white flighters'), plus they would have the 'privilege' of paying the the extortionate rates of direct and indirect Australian tax. Hong Kong tax is about 15%. So if you are going to be taxed you might as well move to a low tax regime or stay at home and be taxed once.
