getting into the local 600

[Joshua Linder]

I'm a DP based in Asia. I have hopes to work on Hollywood films, especially those who shoot in Asia. So, I'm interested in getting into the Local 600, and was wondering if my days outside the US can be counted towards the 100 days needed.

No, they can't. Only days worked in either the US or Canada count. Also, unless you hope to work on union movies within the US, there is no point in the joining the union, as it has no jurisdiction outside of America and Canada.
