If you believe this, then you need to pull out the LOA, read it again, then read the current section 6, read the LOA "enhanced" version again.
Then do a little research on Hong Kong taxes...they are pretty simple, really. Then go to
www.IRS.GOV and take a look at foreign earned income exclusion and foreign tax credit information. Then look at the tax information on the company website. Read that part carefully a couple of times. A clever lawyer wrote it and it says that you will pay your current Federal, State and local obligation, regardless of what the foreign taxes are. You have to figure out yourself that the overall obligation for most would be less in Hong Kong. But where is the difference going? (Hint: you will be subsidizing your own housing allowance).
Then look at the current CBA GT limits and read about how those limits are wavied in the LOA.
If after this, you still come away thinking "Everything else in the LOA is more than you currently get", then please PM me with your name and contact information....I've got a GREAT business proposition for you.
