Pagkakaalam ko walang Region 2A.  Most likely Region A din yan since HK galing.

I agree. Blu-ray discs are classified as region A, B and C or even ABC while numerical designations are for DVDs; an alphanumeric code is not used in either formats

I'm guessing the "IIA" is the film's category or rating & not the Blu-ray region. Hong Kong films are classified using a rating system.

You can refer to below link:
