Sorry, is that part of the job description? English is! Cantonese? Not so much.
Cantonese is a dying language. Anyone with half a brain will choose to learn Mandarin over Cantonese. Far more benefits come from knowing Mandarin.
PS - We are not immigrating to your country. We are working there, legally, and providing a service that HK cannot provide for itself.
PS2 - Trust me, very few expats want to live in HK, much less retire there.
PS3 - I have almost zero Cantonese proficiency, and I don’t care or have any intentions of learning it.
