I really like this organization in HK, if anyone is interested, here is their forwarded newletter regarding job opportunities:

"Videotage is Asia's non-profit media arts organization since 1986 with a key role in promoting, facilitating, incubating and educating media arts developments in Hong Kong. Videotage is a vital link between local and international media art community and works to bring media arts to the broader community. Our mission is to groom and promote media artists from Hong Kong through our prominent network, and to become a major hub for media art research in Asia.
