I don't understand your for example, the N. America to S. Asia award should be 32.5k so you've been charged correctly for a one way award. We're you trying to add a stopover into a one way award or were you on a 65k round-trip and the UA agents were saying that you couldn't change the award?

As for the not finding availability going west, I'd search segment by segment and using airport codes not city codes (e.g. EWR-HNL, JFK-SFO-HNL, EWR-ORD-HNL, HNL-NRT, NRT-BKK etc) and then either try and use multi-city to book or call in and feed the segments to the agent.
