[The Japan Times](http://www.japantimes.co.jp/)

[Asahi](http://www.asahi.com/english/)

Check out the Waiwai section of the later. It gives all of the trash news of Japan.

When I visited China, I seem to remember getting an English-language “China Daily” newspaper every morning at the hotel … Ah, [here it is](http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/home/index.html).

And, in case you want an even more official news source, here’s [the official Communist newspaper](http://english.people.com.cn/).

Here is the site for the Herald Mexico of [El Universal](http://www.mexiconews.com.mx/) which is affiliated with the Miami Herald.

A very thorough site for information on Mexico (all of Latin America) is here [Lanic](http://lanic.utexas.edu/la/mexico/).
