Indonesia has recently made it very difficult for foreigners as you now require a minimum of 250 hours on type, before you can work here. Furthermore, the licensing authority no longer issues licenses to foreigners which means you'll need to get a type rating on your home license and have it validated to work here.
It's generally quite difficult to get in to any entry level job in South East Asia as a low time foreigner. Most expat jobs require a lot of hours on type as entry level jobs are rightfully reserved for their own citizens. If you read the forum here, you'll find that there are literally thousands of CPL/IR graduates looking for their first elusive job in to the industry. Many are unemployed and any opportunities for low timers in places like Malaysia and India will go to their own citizens.
With your US connection, I suggest you try and get in to an entry level job in the US flying in the GA sector first. Build hours there and once you have around 1500 hours, then try for the regional airlines there. Aviation Job websites seem to have a proliferation of jobs in the US. Once you have significant airline or corporate jet experience, then you can try Asia as an expat contract pilot.
