The key and most glaring difference between the Socal/ Bay Area Asians (strong influence) and the tri-state Asians (weak influence) is that here in the Bay Area, California, and the West Coast in general, we have Asians that run sh*t!

The mayor of SF is Chinese. The mayor of Oakland is Chinese. The first Asian American mayor of any major US city (San Jose) was Asian.


There are three Asian Americans representing California in Congress. None for tri-state.

IN fact, Hawaii has a far higher claim than tri-state in this respect. Daniel Inouye, the president pro-tempore in the US Senate, is Third in line of succession to the US Presidency. Tri-state has no clue (or better yet no chance) on how to get an Asian elected to higher office. Why is that? Surely an Asian will rise and overtake Bloomberg, right?!? WRONG! not in 100 years IMO.

In comparison the Asian population in the tri-state area is disenfranchised, punch less, listless, clout less, and small time compared to Asians out West. It's pure unadulterated inferiority complex at its finest that we are witnessing here on this site. And it's actually pleasing me to no end to see them wail away like they have been when it comes to this topic! LOLOLOL

***And don't think we haven't caught on to the fact that every other name that has voted for tri-state is "NOT A MEMBER". It's transparent! LMFAO

Once again, Cali far surpasses NY when it comes to East Asians, while NY tops out in terms of South Asians. Simple as.

California, especially since it's where Asian immigrants first came by boat in the 19th Century.

This is true. I've met a couple people who said to someone "wait, you're Asian? But aren't you from India?"
