Is this an aviation or political question.
The asian civil aviation system is basicially of copy of the Poms CAA.
FAA type systems are more in place and accepted in the middle east though. (if your quiry is of the latter mentioned).
Working in asia can be a treat. You will meet some lovely people, see different cultures, and enjoy some mouth orgasm food.
If you can get satellite dish access you might even see the "world" series live!!.
