Why is this thread called "....other than CAL " They dont hire SO's. All the foreigners there are CAPT or FO - and despite all the moaning they do a lot of the FO's there got a good break and a 744 rating out of the deal - which is better than what they had before.
Anyway I am ramling off elsewhere with this. Point is to answer your question - I think you are in a tough situation cause most asian carriers hire foreigners with experience. The low time guys are their own cadets. You goin to have a hard time convincing them to hire you. Unfortunately there is not a lot of general aviation - charter etc- in Asia, which would have made it easier for you.
