The white man's burden.

 

Yeah, I did know that Oriental is kind of archaic and has negative connotations. I just meant they were synonyms in the way that both words included the same group of people; i.e. the Japanese, Chinese, Koreans, Vietnamese, et cetera.

If someone were to say Oriental, I wouldn't think of a Pakistani or Indian person. That was mah point there.
