Yes Liam, I did based my comments on your posting.However I guessed my posting did not get my intentions through (english is not my first tongue).
I do understand that the pay package is subject to local market rates.However it is for the same "job done".Not to mention that the pay offered would undermine the HKG based pilots's pay structure & their continuing struggle for better pay & working conditions (which in turn will benchmark our pay here).
As Hustler rightfully said, we might be taking a slot for the locals there, god knows how long will they progress in their career after being sidelined during the colonised years.So, they are other hidden issues here to be answered by the CX management.
I still believe that CX management is taking all the pilots who are with CX or trying to get into CX for a ride.The "divide & rule" policy used by the former colonist are being put to good use here.
Good luck again to the pilots with CX on their ongoing struggle.Hopefully it will lead to better terms for the pilots here who wants to be based in KUL.
