To me Asia has four parts:
Indian subcontinent (English is the official language + Bollywood)
Chinese Japan Korean Vietnam (Confucius + chopsticks)
Middle East (too scared to put anything here, just in case my English is not good enough)
Other Asian (sorry I do not know much about them)

It would seem a little odd to group India (1billion+, the worlds largest democracy) and China (1 billion+, the world's largest totalitarian regime).
It's weird enough lumping China, the Koreas and Japan together.
