    My impression was that this is a relatively recent way of classifying SE Asians to replace the word ‘Oriental’, which, according to someone of Chinese descent that I knew, should only applied to non-people items such as carpets and vases. Unfortunately it is rather vague, since many people who really are from Asia aren’t assumed to be included in this category.
