"No it’s not a free market. Just as no Hong Kong airline can set up a foreign controlled international airline in Australia, neither can a foreign airline do the same in Hong Kong."
You are wrong, In Australia ANY airline can set up, irrespective who owns it. This is unlike any country in the planet. I would not be surprised if CX does just that and there is nothing QF can do about it because the Government has already opened the doors!
600ft-lb-CX is based and controlled IN Hong Kong, Jetstar is NOT! Alan Joyce has been poorly advised! If the same rules applied around Asia then Jetstar would be shut down tomorrow!
