what about Taiwan?

you could start working for a smaller Taiwanese design house and still work part time English in order to pay the bills, this way you still get experience or find a full time job. It’s not easy in Taiwan but possible. Stay away from foreign design studios, most of them have a bad reputation, i think someone wrote about this years ago about a Dutch design studio in Taipei. Most of them pay really bad and you can make more just by freelancing. Stay in Taiwan to get experience in Manufacturing and visiting vendors and after a few years move on somewhere else.
