@chairwrecker,

My "assumptions" for 5J was taken from March 8, 1996 to March 8, 2006 (10 years) based on "chippy".

I have not seen any significant change in their TCs since 2006 when the average package in the region for LCCs was US 10.5K. I happened to be in the LC since then.

My other assumption is, Air Asia Philippines will offer a better package than Tiger-Sea Air for the simple reason of competition. "Qualified Pilots" are very scarce in the region right now and China is paying as much as US 14K (Captain) minimum to attract rated A320 pilots.

In short, they will hire locally. Where?

Let's just wait for the TCs and may the best offer win.
