having lived in a town in the UK where we have quite a lot of asian people, I can say that asians do not seem to have any desire to integrate into the community, just like the lady you spoke to mentioned. It's a shame that it is that way.

We have had riots, the last one being in the summer of 2001. It saw some of the worst rioting in Britain for a many years, over 200 people are injured and over 36 people were arrested during several hours of running battles between riot police and about 1,000 mainly Asian youths. Buildings and cars are burned, and shops are looted in the Asian district of the city. Several riots followed a few days later, when a hundred white youths attacked police, and an Asian-owned Pizza restaurant,was destroyed by a gang of white youths.
It occurred as a result of heightened tension between the ethnic minority communities and the city's white majority, stoked by confrontation between far right groups.

Relations have now improved but only time will tell if it will stay that way. I hope it does.

What I am trying to say is, there are faults on both sides, it's not just one sided.
