Fly in an environment where people speak my language, the Cathay Pacific stringent policy of not accepting applications from Chinese Citizens is no coincidence, they DO NOT belong in the cockpit, the can hardly sustain a conversation, and the synergy of flying diminished if not dull.
Work for a company that has transparency, communicates effectively and provides attention to detail for its workers.

Live in a clean environment, China is a sewer, a world factory of cheap labor and now the English level 2 pilots want to risk their international operation accross the pacific and Europe, where they cannot simply communicate.

Continue the quest for the right job, Seek, and ye shall find. Stay away from main land china jobs, unless you have little respect for your quality of life, family, and universal principles of decency and respect. Any Chinese made agency including the renegade province and HKG are contaminated with corrupted strategies from lying and deception to robbing your peace of mind.
Human verification, CMD-A, WS737, you have shared spot on issues of dismay about this part of the world.
