gotta make some distinctions here ... while you make some good points your post is actually misleading ...

Unfortunately, a vast majority of them are unattractive.
True, but

The attractive ones don't have to venture to a faraway country to work (they'd just marry a rich guy).
this is complete bollocks. Jeez, where are your eyes bro?
Truth is the reverse: the attractive ones COMPETE to come to Hong Kong, PRECISELY because they're out to marry a rich guy. Who they will find in Hong Kong. And yes, it works damn well for them, there are so many success stories of good-looking girls finding themselves a developed-country passport and developed-country lifestyle that more of them want to come.
The real reason the majority you see around are ugly is they are the left-overs ... hang around in a DH bar, you'll see a hottie come in, check herself out in a mirror, and then leave. The hotties are not the ones who like to sit on a city street on a sheet of carboard eating rice and buns they cooked the day before. The hotties are ... elsewhere ... hunting ...

Also, only unattractive ones are hired by Hong Kong families because the wife wouldn't want the husband to have lustful thoughts.
This is almost true, but only if you take out the word "only". Yes, a lot of HK wives are very suspicious of employing a good-looking helper. But many of them still relent, and simply insist that the new girl cuts her hair boyishly short, gets STD checks, and wears long-sleeved & ankle-length clothes.
The reality is the SMART attractive girls know how to dress down, look plain in the agent's photograph, wear baggy old clothes at home, no makeup, etc. Then come Sunday, all that comes off, and they're dressed to kill.
And very few of those ever bother to extend to a second 2-year contract.
The reason you're not seeing them?
they've gone ...
