Ask NH: Remote jobs in the East (China, Japan, etc)

Hello,

I'd like to ask for advice regarding remote jobs in the East.

Last 10 years I work remotely, mostly with U.S. based clients, server-side & mobile software development. Usually I find new jobs (I am mostly interested in long term ones) using craigslist, networking & linkedin inquiries.

I had a thought recently that I'd like to find some software development gigs in China, Japan, Singapore, etc. So maybe somebody have any experience in these markets? Is remote working style acceptable in these countries? I know how to get clients in U.S. but what are the tricks & tips in above mentioned countries? Is there a craigslist? Where to start? :) Looking forward for your ideas :) Thank you!
