Having lived and worked in Asia for 15 years, China, Hong Kong and Singapore, I can tell you there is no secret to meeting women here. Any idiot with even a minor ability to listen and understand how people interact with one another is different here from the US will get by just fine as far as meeting women - better so than in the US! That said, Asian-American women, in my epxerience, are totally, totally different. Most of them are more Westernized than Asian, so interacting with them the way you would any other American woman usually works fine, in my experience. I also wonder what the author means by "Asian." The continent contains many nationalities (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai, Indonesian, Malay, etc) each as different from one another as Westerners are from them. An patronizing book at best, a dumb white man's guide at worst.
