In other words, what we used to call the Indian Subcontinent... principally, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri-Lanka, Nepal, and Afghanistan. Be careful not to confuse it with SOUTHEAST Asia, a very different part of the world. Geography was simpler not so very long ago. Reply |

| 183. Author: Dandy Warhol Date: Wed 15th Jul 2026. 10:12 On one hand we have the the "right" ruthlessly exploiting victims and on the other the so called "caring left" trying to ignore they exist. Meanwhile those in the middle get labelled extremists for be appalled. Clown country. I don`t wanna go down like disco. Reply |
| 184. Author: ipswichpar Date: Wed 15th Jul 2026. 11:27 I think I`m in the middle. But I suspect everybody assumes that`s where they are. Pretty sure I`m either Very East or Very West Asia, depending which was round one goes. Reply |
| 185. Author: NMCmassive Date: Wed 15th Jul 2026. 16:28 I just done a simple search and got the numbers I got back. That was totals tho so no breakdown on identity. I’m not anti-immigration. I’m anti illegal-immigration and given our current rules and climate amongst the population I really think we need to take a hard line on illegal migration. I don’t think we can just allow anyone to claim anything without any ability or proof otherwise. Prove you’re an asylum seeker (especially if they’ve arrived on a boat with 40other guys all who seemingly look in their 20’s) and then we’ll help. The way we treat them when they’re here is unfair on them and unfair on the locals. Having weak policies on border controls and a welfare system that’s easy to game makes us attractive to people who won’t bring anything to the table. I really think we’ve got it all erse for elbows COYP Reply |

In the US "Asian" is more China/Japan/Korea. Thus we end up with East Asia and South Asia when probably in 90% of cases we mean Pakistani and Chinese. Reply |
