For what? A differences course?
The A330/A350 differences course takes about a month at CX, I assume HKA will use a similar training footprint. A week in the classroom, CAD exam, two IPT sessions, five FFS sessions, and then line flying sectors.

I would caution anyone taking legal advice from an anonymous forum, get professional advice for your situation. Employment contracts are legally enforceable in HKG courts, even if an employee absconded. Orders made in HKG courts can be recovered in foreign jurisdictions to through international agreements.

One could also face arrest if transiting HKG for non payment of taxes as tax liabilities are due prior to leaving HKG. Then there is the matter of your mandatory provident fund you will not be able to access.
