Wow advent, I can't argue with the middle bit of your post, but as for the beginning and end.... stop drinking the bloody kool aid! It's not good for you. Or the gin, or whatever it is that's clouding your judgement.
Hong Kong is a dump, and there's no way I would live and work here if it wasn't for the money. The life I'd have in Europe would be infinitely better and if I wasn't earning 30,000 usd on an average month there's no way in hell I'd put up with this place and the clowns who run it.
So if you need to, commute, because no-one in their right mind would spend an extra minute in this ****e hole.
That leaves our friends from South Africa who've got no choice, or the 500 hour flight instructors. Can't blame them for joining.
