Then there's Hong Kong. It has a British influence. IMO that influence is fading fast now that its Chinese.

Yes, they are Asian but all Filiinos are not Catholic. Many natives of southwest Asia (espeically Vietnam) are. In our area, we have a large congregation of Catholic fathers and brothers (Carthage MO) and they are Vietnamese. In our diocese, many of the priests are Vietnamese.
