Why foreign S/Os and not just local S/Os?

I am curious why isn´t CX going the same way as SIA and fills most, if not all, S/O seats with locals. As far as I know, SIA mainline stopped taking in foreigners for the right seat in 97(?) taking only locals (Singaporeans and Malaysians as I understand) Saving the housing allowances for expatriate pilots along the way. I am sure they must have thought about that. Wouldn´t local pilots be more loyal than foreigners? And what´s the ratio of local pilots vs foreign pilots in CX? No offense to all you expatriate pilots in CX
