Anyone know if Hong Kong will be hiring non-local controllers in the future? I'm ADC/APP/APR rated, CAA licenced & working in Europe.
Grateful for any input!

Off topic - sorry......but wanted to say "well done" to the chap on approach control this afternoon.
It was as busy as Ive ever seen HKG (ok, hardly LHR on a slow day......but very busy none the less)
A super job juggling both rwys and arrivals from all over the sundial. A pleasure to be part of.

Sorry, no jobs for anyone at the moment and even if there were, the Hong Kong Government have a localization policy.
Felix Lighter, thanks for the comments. It's not often we get positive comments from our customers. Thanks again.
Sorry - I don't want to turn this into a lengthy thread and I should have posted at the time but this provides an opportunity.
I arrived at HK one evening in late Sep when the area was full of CBs, both isolated and regimented (left...right?). ATC did a superb job; the service was flexible, responsive and understanding - many thanks.

Went into HKG with tons of CBs and traffic everywhere. The controller not only let all us deviate as required, but also kept his composure. I was totally impressed!
