You would still owe exactly the same amount of HK$, that doesn't change. As long as you get paid in HK$ you would be better off because imported goods should get cheaper, food for example. But HK did suddenly get a lot more expensive compared to other countries, so businesses might cut back in HK and move to Shanghai or Singapore. Tourists would suddenly find HK much more expensive as well.
