250kts for transition - 230kts thru FL130 - 200kts on downwind. Followed by, you guessed it, radar vectors to join final at 1500' so tight that we are going to fly thru the glideslope before gaining the LOC. Only VMC conditions allow us to start down as we join - not an everyday condition with the weather and pollution these days.

On the job training is not an acceptable method to train controllers for the kind of flying in HKG.
