International bases on the horizon?

Does anyone know what the commuter policy at EK is? As mentioned in earlier posts living in Hong Kong or Dubai is really relative to an individual's needs. However CX seems to have overcome that hurdle by opening up pilot bases internationally. EK does offers quicker upgrades with better wages but the thought of living in DBX is rather a downer for many.

In a market thats seems to have a shortage of qualified pilots worldwide, one would think that EK would follow suit and start offering some international bases.

Any word on that? Has it ever been discussed at EK? Personally I'd sersiously consider EK if it did not involve living in Dubai. Now thats not really flame bait but a personal preference.

RL.
