as to hk students remaining in overseas locations to work, perhaps, especially the also rans, with the adventurous returning to greater china, particularly recently you are not joking me ? aren't you ? They return to China, not HK ??? This suggest HK lacks R&D to run efficiently, and the bright students are leaving. Anyway, China has a lot more brilliant students competing each other. They might not need the folks from HK, especially some HK students do speak poor mandarin.

My grad student from Tianjin is looking at academic jobs now. Some university in Xiamen is paying RMB200k to RMB600k which sounds like a very good salary in China. I think he will apply. Peking and JiaoTong are sending teams to interview at the American Economic Association meeting in Chicago in January. All these economics departments are hiring large numbers of faculty. One job in HK he can apply for so far. Of course also applying to US schools. I'm now receiving daily phone reports from China too.... my GF is there for a few weeks. Currently at a conference in Beijing with her PhD adviser. Yesterday she had to translate his talk slide by slide to the audience.... Luckily she already got her re-entry visa to the US.
