Above list of countries are Asian geographically. But when a person is called "Asian" in US, it means they are oriental looking. Which are people from China, Japan, Korea's and other Southeast Asian countries? The term, "Asian" is a political correct replacement word for racist word, "Ch***y". I hope that answers the above questions. And has anybody ever gave thought why people from US are called Americans worldwide, why not people from Canada, Mexico, Brazil or Chile and many more....

www.news.bbc.co.uk..

I go by that classification in which the news appears..

GCC was not asia at any point ..it was called in various terms asia minor, eurasia etc by historians..

smile..it never hurts..

(the other person)

back in turkey when u say asian it includes arabs,persians,indians,east asians etc.. everybody living in asia.. turkey can be considered as a european country but i was saying i m asian cuz my roots are there. being here for sometimei changed my mind. i dont look like asian:)

here asians mostly means indians,filipinos,chinese etc..

and as I said above, IN THE END WE ALL ANSWER TO THE SAME MARKER (GOD). so yeah who cares... where u from? what color skin, what language you spoken, and what nationalities you are from. We all will die and burry to the ground.

Ram, may be u should read my post again. my understanding of asian are: Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Thai, Pinoy, Cambodian, Laos, Myanmar, Singaporian, Malaysian, Brunei, and Indonesian. and the rest i hv to mention, i dont considered them as asian instead of indian, turkish and arabian.

and as my understanding of asian (Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Thai, Pinoy, Cambodian, Laos, Myanmar, Singaporian, Malaysian, Brunei, and Indonesian) we all almost hv similiar taste of food and ect.

Australasia isn't something that is too common...however Oceania is what refers to down under of Aus Vs NZ...

Asians: Well while we do accept the technicality, normally Indians are quite different to in the looks so are referred to as Indians, but when it comes to Far East Asia, China, Korea, Japanese you sometimes cant make out who is who...they are all look alike...so thats why they're referred to as Asians...

Ofcourse Australia isn't a part of Asia. Australia is a completely different continent.

It appears to mean almost everything without meaning anything. I think Nouf89 is right when she says "who cares?"

Australia is not consider a part of Asia by Asians and Australians

When I hear Asian I think either Far East Asia (China, Thailand, Malaysia, Japan, etc) and South East Asia (India, Paskistan, Nepal, etc) but I don't consider Middle Easterns as Asian (although geographically they are) but the culture and traditions are very different. Even Middle Easterns are very different among themselves, for example Lebanon is very different from Qatar although they're only about 2400 kms away.

I'm not always right, but I'm never wrong :P - Garfield

indians and pakistani and afghani r considered TECHNICALLY as Asians ..

but if so then they shoudl call Qataris too as Asians and not Middle eastern or Arabs .. cuz TECHNICALLY they r Asians ..

Although one's identity may seem to be a very personal and individual decision, as we shall examine, there can be many historical, socioeconomic, and sociological factors that can directly or indirectly influence this decision. Just as there is a wide range of experiences and circumstances within the Asian population, so too can there be many different, overlapping, and simultaneous forms of ethnic identity among Asian.

For me, Asian are: Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Thai, Pinoy, Cambodian, Laos, Myanmar, Singaporian, Malaysian, Brunei, and Indonesian. The rest I called: Arabian, Indian, of Turkish.

We all as an Asian, have similiar taste in Food, Culture, Dance, Customs and Tradition. Which totally different from the Western culture, food, Customs and Tradition.

In the end, we all answer to the same MArker.

Middle east countries ars not condiered as Asians in the Far East and South East countries. But Japan and China are considered Asians.

Richrd 123 - Another block is SEA(South East Asia) consisting India, Sri Lanka, Pakistan,Nepal,Bhutan,Maldives, Bangladesh.

LOL

Where did I go on holiday? Asia, Europe or the Middle east?

Georgia and Armenia - where are they?

when i was living here asian meant the same to me... chinese, philipino...etc

but when i moved to the UK asians were actually indian, pakistanis, afghanis and all and far eastern ppl were referred to as oriental..

middle easterns are arabs

and so on

i think it does make it easier to distinguish them that way

but hey.. who cares..

"He who reigns within himself and rules passions, desires, and fears is more than a king."

Richard123 - Asean is an another block of Asian countrries. (Far Eatern Block). It consiusts of Philippines, Myanmar, Singapore, thailand, Loas, Malaysia, Vietnam, Brunai, Indonesia. They have their own economic forum

Thanks for asking. I share your views on who is Asian but I notice in the press Asian is used for Indians, Pakistanis, Sri Lankans etc. I am just curious to know if they also see themselves as Asian.

i always use the term Asian for philpines, china, Japan, and thailand

but technically Indians, Qatarianr, suadians all are Asians cuz they r all in Asia ... but when u talk about a race or body type Asian is always used for phil. china jap. thailand etc ...

so it depends where do u use it and who is using it too .. it can be both ..

so how r u Richard ..
