574862 2007-08-01 11:20:00 You'd have to stretch the definition of "Orient" pretty far to include India. No Indian would consider himself an Oriental person. Its weird how people in NZ however think that India isn't part of Asia but looking at the education system, I'm not surprised.

Plus he could have easily put it after China and Korea.

574864 2007-08-01 12:59:00 Noone from India would have time to post here, they are to busy manning the telephone help lines to be surfing the internet. Rob99 (151)
574865 2007-08-01 14:04:00 Good Lord that is stereotypical. You do realize I am Indian right Rob??? beeswax34 (63)
574866 2007-08-01 14:13:00 What I think Robb meant was that no one from India who is currently living in India who have the time to post here. ronyville (10611)

The formal meaning of orient is to the "east" (of Europe that is). So India is regarded as oriental (by Europeans proper).
