What Are The 3 Best Countries In Asia Besides Japan

Is Philippines the best in asian countries with beautiful women?

Indian (asia) women are ugly with their utterly fake/stupid attitude & not open besides with lot of insecurity in them. I feel even srilankan women are hot & wont show attitude. My fellow brit, aussie, american, canadian mates which country you wanna choose......& also tell me which asian country women you felt ugly in feautures & in attitude wise.

Is Japan the only first-world country in Asia?

Depends on your definitions.

If you were to go on the HDI (Human Development Index) index alone, yes Japan has the highest HDI of all the Asian countries.

-------------------
However with that said:

Taiwan (babble all you want about politics, Taiwan is a defacto country). Taiwan isn't bad, it certainly isn't third world in Taiwan.

Nor is it in Hong Kong (well depends where in Hong Kong)
despite what one poster said, hong kong isn't a city of china, it is a Special Administration Region of China, which still has a lot of atonomy vs being in the Peoples Republic of China.

South Korea is pretty advanced as well.

BUT, going on the HDI alone, Japan has the highest HDI in Asia.

Is Japan the only developed country in Asia?

Nope.The most developed in terms of HDI and GDP per capita it would be Japan, Israel and singapore. In fact Singapore is a bit ahead of Japan in terms of HDI with 0.9 HDI while Japan has 0.89 HDIBut developed countries in Asia consist of many:South KoreaTaiwanMacauBruneiUAEHong KongKuwaitCountries in Asia such as Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, China and India are moving on relatively fast in terms of growth.

What Asian country should I visit from Japan?

If you're paying for flights out of Japan, keep in mind they're not cheap.
AIr Asia and Jetstar do flights-
SIngapore is about $160 us one way.
Phillipines is about $100.
CHina- nearby and quite cheap to fly. You don't want to spend 11 hours of holiday time flying one direstion, and Shanghai is 3 hours, so CHina is a good option. Manila is near enough too.

Taiper, Korea are very near. But more like Japan than other places.

Bangkok is about 12 hours flight. Cambodia and VIetnam the same. It's tempting to think you can take weekend trips to all those places but the distances are huge.
Korea- Phillipines, nearby China is your best bet for short flights.

If you've never been to China, it's pretty amazing. Taiwan and KOrea are quite similar to Japan.
VIetnam- amazing, THailand is nice, but it's a very touristy place, easy to visit, but you end up watching a lot of sunburnt GErman tourists wherever you are, unless you go off the track, which takes time.

Hanoi is a great city. No McDonalds at all! Cambodia is awesome. I'd look further into going to SIngapore and from there you can go to Malaysia and INdonesia in five minutes. Indinesia is rather magical, as is Malaysia once you're out of the cities. Thailand is just too westernized and full of sex tourism for me. It really depends what you want to see and do and experience and feel.

Which countries watch bollywood movies besides India?

Pakistan is the biggest market in terms of footfalls for bollywood movies.Other than Pakistan,bollywood movies are watched in Bangladesh,Nepal,Myanmar mostly through pirated DVDs.Outside the subcontinent,UAE and few other gulf countries are a big market.Most medium to big films release here in theatres.Apart from Gulf,USA,UK,Canada,Australia and New Zealand are the places where bollywood movies find theatrical releases.Some big movies also release in Malaysia.For ex:Films of superstars like SRK,Akshay,Salman,Aamir,Hrithik these find a theatrical release in malaysia.China is the new territory which can be explored further.3 Idiots was a huge success here and made Aamir Khan the only recognizable indian actor there.Hence,PK became a huge success there.SRK's Happy New Year was also released there but it could'nt find audience for it. It was a disaster there.Also China has restrictions over the number of foreign films releasing in their country.They only allow 36 films of foreign origin a year,out of which 25 hollywood films releases.Hong Kong and Japan are few other territories where bollywood films have released.SRK's Om Shanti Om and Rab Ne Bana Di jodi,Aamir's Dhoom 3 and 3 idiots,Sridevi's English vinglish found a release in Japan. Aamir's PK is currently playing in Hong Kong theatres and doing well.  Apart from these,there are some circuits which were'nt thought of being explored say about a 8yrs ago.These countries include Turkey(Aamir has great following in this country),Romania,Germany.Here are some of the bollywood movie posters when they released in foreign theatres.BARFI Russian Poster::BARFI Turkish Poster:Ek Tha Tiger,3 Idiots and Don 2 Japanese posters::Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi japanese poster:Om Shanti Om Japanse poster:English Vinglish and Dhoom 3 Japanese posters:English Vinglish German and Romanian Posters:PK Chinese and Hong Kong Posters:KICK Polish poster:Apart from the theatrical releases,people who have a fascination towards bollywood watch these movies through internet with subtitles.Here's hoping that Bollywood movies captivate the audiences worldwide and the market only grows from here on.

What are the most developed countries in Asia and why?

1st Place: South Korea, Hong Kong*, Taiwan**, Singapore (Four Asian Tigers), Japan. These countries are 1st place mainly because they are rapidly industrializing and have fast economic growth. Their economies are flourishing. The runner ups down below are close to those in first place, but not enough to graduate to first place.Runner Ups: Qatar, UAE, Kuwait, India, China, Macau*, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Brunei, Israel, Turkey, Cyprus, Vietnam. These economies are developing quickly and their economies are not far behind those in first place.*Hong Kong and Macau aren’t countries, but their economies are entirely separate from China’s economy, so I’m counting them as “countries” in this case.**Taiwan is an independently functioning government, so it technically is a country. Even if your country doesn’t recognize Taiwan, it’s economy is independent, so it’s the same case as Hong Kong and Macau.

If one had only one chance, which Asian country is the best choice to visit?

I’ve been to Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, China (Mainland, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan), South Korea, and Japan. The countries that I would like to visit someday :-India - I’ve always been fascinated by the cultures and the strong traditions that the people carry. I’ve been to China and USA, and these two countries are very big and diverse, so I’m expecting the same for this country as it has the second largest population in the world.-Iran - I love its history, architecture, and culture. I want to see those beautiful mosques in real life and get to feel the textures and materials on the buildings. I’ve never tried Iranian cuisine in my life, and I hope I will one day.-Mongolia - Particularly for the nomadic lifestyle, but I would also love to visit its capital city as I like comparing cities from different countries. To me, Mongolia is a very exotic country.-Saudi Arabia - Visiting one Arab country would complete my life and I think Saudi would be interesting as it’s known for its strict Shairah law and Wahhabist government.-Vietnam - Heard a lot about it and it seems like an interesting place to visit. I’m imagining myself eating on the corner of the street in Hanoi while sitting on a tiny chair or relaxing at a water village in Ha Long Bay. There’s so much romanticism in my mind.-Japan - I’ve been to Japan before and I love it, but I haven’t visited Hokkaido and Okinawa. I heard a lot about Hokkaido and it seems to be known for its cold weather. I hope I can get to meet the Ainu people in Hokkaido. As for Okinawa, it is one of the last regions in Japan to join the country (It was an empire of its own called Ryuku). Because of this, its culture is quite unique compared to the rest of Japan.-China - I’ve been to many places in China, but I really want to visit Tibet (For its exotic culture.), Fujian (My Hokkien ancestors came from there.), and Xi’an (Fascinating fortress, pagoda, one of the oldest Tao temples, and a little blend of exotic Muslim culture.).-Nepal - What I like about Nepal, compared to India, is the absence of Persian/Turkic influence. As the result, it retains more purity of its culture than the Indian ones. I also heard the architectural style that is commonly found in Nepal is becoming rare in India.

Why is Japan most developed country in the Asia?

In terms of GDP per capita, and adjusted to purchasing power parity (PPP), Singapore has a higher income and so does Taiwan in PPP terms, rather surprisingly. In terms of wealth, Japan is wealthier, as it has been developed for a longer time. Wealth takes time to compound.In terms of manners and how things work, Japan is the best place I have been in the region. Even when a train is slightly late, people are given a personal apology. Things work in Japan. Shanghai has a reasonable GDP per capita, but isn't even closer to being as developed as Japan in terms of things actually working.Politically, Japan also has a well functioning democracy with the rule of law. So does Taiwan, but the same can't be said of Singapore in terms of democracy.In the Cold War period, a lot of people called the Asia-Pacific `IndoChina`. One of the reasons I think foreigners who come to Japan are impressed, is modern-day Japanese culture hasn’t been influenced by modern day Indian or Chinese “culture”. It has been influenced by ancient Chinese culture.In comparison, even in Singapore, there doesn't seem to be as much true culture. The influence of China and India seems to mean that materialism is much more pervasive.

Why Is It That Japan Is The Only Nonwhite Country On The Planet That Can Be Considered 1st World?

India and China are is not 1st world countries. There is massive poverty in those 2 countries. They rank very low in the human development index .

If most Chinese and Indians had the chance the majority would abandon their countries in a heartbeat for greener pastures in the United States or Europe.
