Volatility indicators in non-US markets

Hello all. Of course, we all know about the VIX being a measure of volatility in the US domestic equities market, which of course has a direct relationship on the movements on carry trades.

What I am looking for is the VIX Equivalent on foreign exchanges, FTSE, DAX, Nikkei, Hang Sang, ASX, Hong Kong, etc etc. Knowing only about VIX movements doesn't necessarily reflect these other exchanges.

Any idea on this? Thank you.

This page contains some information about 4 volatility indices, where FTSE100 and CAC40 are 2 of them....

For other indices, use Google, I am sure you will find the others....
