Some quick thoughts: 1. It should be good to create a "Silicon Valley-Singapore" or "Silicon Valley-Taiwan" ecosystem to bring the startup culture, funding, and people who know local market together. 2. Although “American companies really suck at international expansion and localisation," as said by Werner Vogels, I am afraid that Asian companies do not have much success either? I could only think of NAVER LINE as an example.
