I read that statement and the posts by cxdiscriminates. I have no way of knowing if what they say is true and certainly would not take those statements as evidence to prove the racist claims.

What I do know is CX has no policy that states HKID card holders are only to employed on local terms. I have never flown with anyone that has experienced such. However, I have flown with a number of pilots who were eligible to become CEP's but elected to fund their own training and successfully applied to CX and are on expat terms.

If it has happened in individual cases, then I would hope the AOA would fund a legal action. However, even if any individual cases exist they would not validate any claim that the CEP program is racist/nationalist/ or other 'ist (which is the argument the original poster was promoting)
