If you're based in the Asia Pacific, I have some nice grants for you:

In particular, I think any research about BGP routing in Tor, or otherwise increasing security of BGP or Tor would be lovely research project that I suspect they'd accept. It would also have the side benefit of bringing Asian funders more into the Tor community.
