There are OTHER parts of the world where the HHonor accounts are being closed with the "unauthorized pooling".

Seems to me your intention to buy points from another account then pool it to your account so to circumvent the yearly limitation is at High Risk to trigger the closure because, well, intentionally to do so to bypass the limit set.

My guess is, many accounts in Greater China have engaged in the activities you proposed, hence those accounts are closed.

Though I am sure we would love to see you carry out your plan and see if your accounts would survive, given that "SIN is not part of Greater China", so the closures there have no effect on you...
