Many large companies in Asia will use First Advantage (previously LexusNexus I believe) to do background checks so ignore the previous commenter that Asia doesnt do background checks, the same incompetent company used heavily in US and EU. However I would be surprised if startups did background checks, and even if they did if you could put your cards on the table then I doubt it will hinder you, you seem to be upfront here (and with it only probation) so I guess it wasn't anything too evil.
