The commonality for almost all the Asian groups, from my experience, dated Asian girls from everywhere, lived throughout Asia and married to a Japanese for 16 years:
1. Work hard
2. Study and Succeed
3. Make secure family life
4. Educate children
5. Repeat
If you believe ethnological-geneticists the intelligence tiers go something like
Asians are Number 1
Whites are Number 2
Blacks at Number 3
Its a matter of evolution and science/biology.
For me, it sucks being number 2 but I accept it. lol Way too much research has been done to prove naysayers wrong. It is what it is.
