Americans tend to think of "Asian" as referring only to East Asians: Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Vietnamese, etc. Interestingly, in the UK "Asian" tends to refer to South Asians: Indians, Pakistanis, Bangladeshis, etc. This is simply because of the different major sources of Asian immigrants in the US vs the UK.
