Asian markets mostly rose in early trade Wednesday as hopes grew for a breakthrough from crucial meetings at which Greece will try to convince its European creditors to renegotiate terms of its bailout.
Dealers were given a positive lead from New York and Europe, even after Greece's combative leaders vowed not to bow to German-led pressure to complete an austerity-laden agreement, leading to fears Athens will default and exit the eurozone.
Hong Kong was 0.65 per cent higher, Seoul added 0.47 per cent, Shanghai put on 0.20 percent and Taipei gained 0.69 per cent while Sydney eased 0.62 per cent.
