TLDR of the proposal:  
Asia community is very active, and there’re also a lot of devs wanna learn more about NEAR. In order increase the devs learning about NEAR and join NEAR courses, and have some activities for dev in NEAR ecosystem. I suggest to have NEAR Asia Dev DAO to create an environment for devs to discuss more about NEAR technology.

Potential impacts on the NEAR Ecosystem:  
• Promote NEAR Blockchain to devs community  
• Running Asia NEAR courses  
• Increase devs to build dapp on NEAR  
• Have fund for more actives to building dev community in Asia  
Execution:  
• I propose to kick off the budget $6k per month budget in the [NEAR Asia Dev DAO](https://www.sputnik.fund/#/dao/near_asia_dev_dao.sputnikdao.near)  
• Budget will use for: organize fee for education activities, reward for admin who keep active the community and marketing fee for dev activities in Asia

DAO Council members:  
• Riley  
• Amos  
• Eunice  
• Robert

Hey @Riley,

It’d be awesome to see more devs in the NEAR ecosystem from Asia 🎉

Can you please amend the proposal to reflect the move to [USD denominated funding](http://gov.near.org/t/community-fund-processes-usd-pricing/5489).

All of those sound great 💪 However, I think 6k NEAR (or the USD equivalent when updated) is quite a significant chunk so, for the sake of transparency, it’d be cool to see further details on each of these and a bit more of a breakdown.
