    asian culture promotes the welfare of the community rather than the self, so people are less individualistic and therefore there are less actors? i dunno maybe though

    Just curious, did ATW include Arabs, Indians and Mongols as "Asians". Technically they are as every bit of Asians as your Bruce Lee kind Asians.

    Fine, include them. But not all Arabs are Asian, a lot of them are North African.

    It takes like 10000 Asian actors out of several million for them to show up on tv.
