If I were threatened with so-called 'on shoring' anywhere in the world organised (sic) by Cathay Pacific and their KPMG mates I would prepare for another ill-researched f**k up! Those of us in UK left in the lurch by that pathetic worm of a DFO are still fighting to recover extra tax (above PAYE) paid to Hong Kong when Cathay told HK IRD that we had left Hong Kong for good and were unlikely ever to return (so called 'Leaving Hong Kong case'). HKIRD discovered that we were still employed in Hong Kong, trained from Hong Kong, checked in Hong Kong and should therefore pay tax in Hong Kong starting five years ago!!
' A bit of extra paperwork' according to our DFO. Still going on too and the battle continues with zero help from CX despite the fact that the whole mess was caused by them. Bloody amateurs.
Be afraid - be very afraid.
