Flight schools with Asian airlines partnerships

Good day everyone,
PPL, currently studying theoretical ATPL, 32yrs old, I dream about becoming a pilot in Asia.
I am considering joining a flight school who possess partnerships with Asian Airlines, from China, Japan, Corea, Taiwan, HongKong, Singapore... to get better placement opportunities upon finishing the training.
Would somebody know a school who provides this kind of opportunities ?
Thank you

The catch here is the legal right to work in those countries, because even if you do join a flight school with a partnership then you need the legal right to work and live. In addition, joining a flight school is supposed to be a 0 to flight hour task, so I don't think you can just transfer with ATPL credits and a PPL without performing rigorous transfer procedures. Each school would like to teach you their way, the way of the airline they're contracted with.

The only one I know of that doesn't require a legal right to live and work in the country is Air Arabia's Alpha Aviation Academy in the UAE. Although the MPL program with them is from 0 hours to flight so your ATPL credits and PPL wouldn't have an effect and also costs around $100,000.
