Okay guyz, actually I didn't even need to email or contact ASG, an Italian Pilot I know just wrte me this:

"ASG is working with an airline in Hong Kong to bring them type rated pilots. These pilots will first go through a slection process on the sim at Lufthansa. If selected, Pilots will go through a training course: MCC + Type Rating + Line Training. COsts? at least 40,000 euros not including housing and other fees. The exact price should be determined soon.

In return candidates will be guaranteed a job with the HK carrier. This scheme should not be compared with eaglejet who make you pay for everything with no job guarantee"

This looks tricky. As others said it above, the only carrier using the b738 is CR Ariways and they don't make you pay for the type rating and surely not the line training. And 40,000 euros for training only? Not covering other expenses, not even housing is bit .

I hope this helps. Just my two cents...
