I am not familiar with DUS-HKG.
But for HKG-US, it is about right.

HKG charges a $6 security surcharge, which makes the award ticket's "fare" no longer zero. Once this is no longer zero, AA adds a bunch of US government fees to the collect list. These fees are not collected if the fare is zero, which is the case on a booking of US->HKG.
