asiaDefinition from Wiktionary, the free dictionary Jump to: navigation, search See also Asia, Ásia, asía, Asía, asĩa, and ԱսիաFinnish(index as) From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Asia is the world's largest and most populous continent, located primarily in the eastern and northern hemispheres. It covers 8.6% of the Earth's total surface area (or 29.9% of its land area) and with approximately 4 billion people, it hosts 60% of the world's current human population. During the 20th century Asia's population nearly quadrupled. Asia is traditionally defined as part of the landmass of Eurasia — with the western portion of the latter occupied by Europe — located to the east of the Suez Canal, east of the Ural Mountains and south of the Caucasus Mountains (or the Kuma-Manych Depression) and the Caspian and Black Seas. It is bounded on the east by the Pacific Ocean, on the south by the Indian Ocean and on the north by the Arctic Ocean. Given its size and diversity, Asia — a toponym dating back to classical antiquity — is more a cultural concept incorporating a number of regions and peoples than a homogeneous physical entity (see Subregions of Asia, Asian people). The wealth of Asia differs very widely among and within its regions, due to its vast size and huge range of different cultures, environments, historical ties and government systems.

I can tell you based on the huge population and rapid growth in economics, the internet booms prosperously in China and many Web companies retrieve unbelievable success here such as QQ, Baidu, TaoBao, etc. But unfortunately few foreign company among them. There are many explanations including huge culture rift, weak copyright protection, strict news censorship, and so on. It is difficult to give you the reliable infomation --- and you'd better not trust the data from Chinese goverment until you're sure you have a good understanding of Chinese goverment --- but Google is a good case for research.

Q. I am planning to fly to Los Angeles from either Bangkok or Singapore next January. What is the best way to do this and are there any budget carriers that fly this route? Does flying between Asia and the U.S require a stopover in either Japan or Taiwan/Taipei or can you fly direct from Singapore/Bangkok? Asked by danielscgregory - Wed Jan 14 14:07:44 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. The best way is not the cheapest. The cheapest way is never the best. Please make up your mind if you want best or cheap.
