I checked. I'm mistaken on that one. Post corrected.
Wow...now I get how the Indian got the HK DL...
- use the Indian passport in lieu of HKID
--- have it couriered to HK for a few days
- fake some HK address proof (how hard is that) (very disappointed TD does not check the applicant has never been physically present in HK...)
- appoint some local to be authorised person
The only "illegality" is the address proof.
These rules are excessively loose...no wonder the DVLA stopped verifying HK DL
