Richard,

There are several exchange points, but their functions tend to be slightly 
different from what is understood in the US. IXes such as SOX (Singapore), 
HKIX (Hong Kong), JPIX & NSP-IXP2 (Japan) and KIX & KINX (Korea) tend to be 
the more oft quoted IXes in Asia and are familiar in design and function. 
The others are either very much in-country exchanges offering neutral 
traffic exchange, or being run by one operator as a for profit transit 
service provider. (Consider in the latter cases the use of the word 
exchange as a "marketing" term... ;-)

As others have pointed out, www.ep.net has the list of all the known ones. 
Hope this helps.
