Also are the EASA theoretical ground exams valid in Hong Kong? Or do the equivalent HKCAD exams have to be taken?
I ask because some airlines (present one included) do not allow their FOs to unfreeze.

Yes. You sit for I think 3 papers during the conversion. You get a CPL from CAD, when you hit 1500 or 3000 hours (Not sure you have to check), you get it unfrozen.
