Hello,
My parents were both born in Hong Kong and hold HKID's. I went to HK last summer to apply in person, it got rejected immediately because my parents had British Passports when I was born, apparently, that makes me fully British!
I would have to get some commercial experience up to a few thousand hours then apply to CX. I would work as an ex pat in hk. They can't give me a visa as a cadet for some reason but they can if you are a direct entry SO/Fo/capt

Why were you rejected? were you in HK when you applied and do your parents hold an ID card?
Its great to see that bit about Cathay possibly sponsoring a visa, not sure how you go about it though. Any info that you have would be much appreciated!
Thanks
