Do German companies in Asia prefer German or Asian candidates as new interns?
It really depends on the company”s policy- some prefer recruiting interns in Germany and then send them to Asia, while others hire personnel in the Asian country their branch is located in. This is because some companies may require a native-like proficiency of German, good working knowledge of English and maybe some fair level of the specific Asian language (e.g., Korean Germans tend to be tri-lingual in most cases) while some companies located in Asia prefer to hire those with Chinese, Japanese or Korean native proficiency to overcome the language barriers in the foreign company. So generally there is no evident preference – it depends completely on the requirements specified by the company.
