I also think it's funny how some people don't know that the Middle East is in Asia

Some of what we normally define as the middle east is also in Europe and Africa (as far as i remember), but I'm not sure how strict the definition "the middle east" is.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

It's because a lot of people simply refer to them as the Middle East or Arabian countries.

In the UK, it's probably the other way round.

<----He's right. In the UK, Asian is mostly referring to Indians and the Middle East. In NA, Asian is mostly referring to EA/SEA. You can google it too...

Oops, sorry, my bad. I always forget that Eygpt is in Africa...it's so close to my country.

Egypt is mostly North African, but wikipedia says it's 'transcontinental' because it's an entrance way between Africa and West Asia.

Indian-Malays and Indian-Singaporeans only form a small minority though.

i know, but it would be nice if people would stop assuming things. every time i told someone i was from singapore, they thought it was in china. it just bugs me.

I thought Singapore was mostly Malay or Chinese anyways....? Or am I wrong :| I'm only basing this assumption that Singapore is right under Malaysia and wikipedia...
