You know what I never got? Both Japan and the Phillipines are disconnected from Asia and are islands but why is it that Filipinos are more considered Pacific Islanders and not asian when Japanese people are asian by default?

Hope I phrased all of that correctly. What are your thoughts?

I thought Philippines was considered South East Asia, like Vietnam and Indonesia. Japan, China and Korea are considered East Asia. I think Pacific Islander is more for like for Polynesians and Samoans and that kind of thing.
