U.S. Embassies have at least one representative and in many cases a
whole office that is sent to the target country by the U.S. Department
of Commerce. The goal of these offices is to increase U.S.
business with the target country.
These offices can be helpful in assisting you in researching
opportunities
in a target country.

Most
countries in Asia have U.S. Chambers of Commerce made up of member U.S.
companies
doing business in that country. Typically large Chambers of
Commerce
have a hired staff person who acts as the Executive Director.
Smaller
Chambers may have only a volunteer staff. American Chambers of
Commerce
often are good sources of information on the ease or difficulty in
doing
business in the target country. Oftentimes they can refer you to
members
who have detailed insight into set-up problems, the incidence of
corruption
in the host country or other challenges. Oftentimes the target
country
will have its own chamber of commerce which is seeking to promote
business
and investment in their country. These Chambers which represent
the
target country can also be helpful.
