You only have to look around dispatch during the heavy departure bank time periods to realise what's happened to this airline. Age and nationality bear no relation to the CX of 30 years ago. The mindset and experience of this airline has wasted away, to be replaced by a new reality that is very aviation ignorant on the larger scale, and a much younger and inexperienced group in control of a once great airline. Eventually, the Swires destruction of the old CX will reap what they have sown. There is nothing of value left here. If you want a proper career, you had better establish that in a normal part of the world with an airline subject to proper laws and customs.
