Not a happy Apps Store customer - changing country settings

Question

I got the following problem and raised it a few times with NO reply from Apple which is very dissapointing and reflection of surprisingly poor customer service from Apple (with the exception of the customer service here in HK who came back to me quickly. But they could not sort it out for me).
This year I moved from Australia to Hong Kong and changed without being aware of the consequences the store settings in itunes/apps Store.
Unfortuntately I got a few apple devices: 2 MBAs, ipad2, ipad, iphone which where purchased in Australia and in Hong Kong. One consequence of switching the country settings is that on all my devices the apps are not in sync and that  I lost all my Australian apps. Its a complete chaos with my apps on different devices and I really regret that I spent money on the app store and now got an issue on how to sort out this mess.
I read the T&G's and I'm aware of the country specific licences agreement but somehow apple should be able to help their customers in sorting out these constraints due to different laws in different countries. I don't believe one should be a lawyer to buy an app on the app store and to understand the legal implications when buying an app. It's not really the problem of the end consumer who buys legally the licence for an app and then moves country and suddenly doesn't have access to the purchased app anymore. The end-consumer already paid the licence for the app.
But Apple makes this a big problem for the end consumer of and I'm worried what to do with my apple devices and my apps. The problem is that we currently got ipad for work so I need to get some apps from the store for my work.
And I'm really ****** off because its now my problem and of the mess on my devices which all got different versions of the apps. My idea was to have all my devices synced so if I loose one device I could easily get a new one and sync it with itunes/app store/cloud as the single source of the truth.
As a conclusion of above I'm now a very critical user of Mac/Apple Products and I make people, friends and business partner aware of this limitation and problem with the app store. I'm also for the first time looking forward to get my hands on samsung device as it doesn't really seem to matter anymore if my apps/data are automatically in sync as apples promise of a cloud based 'play and have it anywhere" is an empty promise.
A very disillusioned customer (happy to switch to the competition)

Answer 1

Thank you both for your very instructive and helpful reply. I can see that open discussions are strongly encouraged in this forum.
@HACKINT0SH: if I remember one of your replies to another user with a similar problem of switching country setting you recommended to download all apps before switching but with the "side effect" that one will loose the ability to receive updates of the purchased apps once the country setting is switched.
What exactly is the lesson learned?
An app or a program is useless if you can't download updates as the app will be unsupported or won't work in future OS releases.
Hence your suggestion to download all apps before switching is only a short sighted work around solution which doesn't solve the issue of how to receive updates for the apps you bought in your previous country.
@Dah veed: I hope that above reply explains the problem of users switching apple store due to personal circumstances and not being able to continue using their purchased apps anymore. I didn't screw my country settings as I only moved from one country to the other without being able to move my apps with me. That's all and I would like to make people aware of this problem.
I only replied to both of you because I found your replies very entertaining and also proves to me that apple is not monitoring their "technical" support forum.
As a customer who is trying to help finding answers to problems I will nevertheless raise a formal complaint to apple instead of responding to both of you via this post. Perhaps this forum is indeed not the right forum to help solve this problem.
