Instructor opportunities in Asia?

I'm currently working in the USA as an instructor (PPL,CPL,IR and soon ME).
I have both FAA and EASA certificates and will have somewhere around 1500-1700h before I get bored here.

How are the opportunities for instructors in asia? A lot of demand? Good or bad pay? How is the quality of the schools?

The reason I'm asking is that I havent been able to find any good information on the subject.

Thanks for the informative reply!

I'll be breaking 1000h in the coming week and I'm already just above 500h instruction given so that should be no issue.

As for the pay, do you have any approximate numbers?

Here in the US I make around 2000USD a month which is really low considering that I have to pay for everything myself.

Roger. Then I can count myself as a semi experienced instructor as I just hit 1000h

Do you know if FAA or EASA certificates are preferred?
I currently hold EASA FI and FAA CFI/CFII.
Any use getting easa IRI and CRI for ME?

Don't go to any of this schools. Flybest the wrost by far. All the westerns stay there less than one year and there are runing away.
Insults, yellings, work abuse is normal. They going to force you to work 16 hours a day 7 days a week, if you are complaining they going to fıre you.

The only one that did that regularly is gone back to her country, no more flying bags and slamming doors. I guess prozac is cheaper in Spain.

Indonesia and Flybest realıze that whıte pılots flyıng there are the left overs of the westen countıres. For that reason they fıred 8 westerns ın 2 years, few westens left...

Lufthansa dıd a good job applyıng hıgher standards for EASA pılots, so they keep some europeans out of the hıs skyes, for some, the only optıon left ıs Indonesıa

left overs?!?!

Sorry, but not everyone dreams of airlines. I quit airline flying in the west to fly Indonesia.... The only 'left over' was the one that couldn't pass her airline interview due to mental issues.....

That person flew the 70% of Flybest TFT in the last year, under your blessing, aproval & theats
Stop insult in public, because you are killing flybest reputation and you are giving the point to those that are saying that insults and bulling are normal in flybest.
All the instructors are runnıng away from you.
