I'm from asia Phillipines to be exact and there are so many things I can say about my continent.
Asia as a whole has the fastest growing economy and accounts for a quarter of the world's exports and global gross domestic product. Our economies together represent one-third of the global economy. Our total combined international currency reserves amount to over half of the world's foreign exchange reserves.
Asia is also abundant in natural resources, from gold and spices to natural gas and petroleum. The continent is a growing market for capital goods, technology, consumer products, semi-finished goods and raw materials. The market continues to expand with improvement in income levels and growth.
Asia has great assets in terms of human resources, skills, and home-grown technical know-how. On the cultural side, Asia is characterized by great ethnic and cultural diversity. In antiquity, Asia was a land of great cultural civilizations and richness. Today, Asian cultures still shine.

I'm from Asia and though I'm dreaming of someday going to the US and Europe and live for awhile in their best cities, I'll always think of Asia as home.
It's got beautiful historic sights that are worth seeing at least once in your life, the people (women, especially?) are all beautiful and really nice, and you have to admit that it is indeed slowly but surely becoming an economic power, with China leading the pack.
Asia's diversity in terms of culture and its religion and peoples is also very interesting and noteworthy. I myself am an Asian and I havent experienced all that the continent has to offer, but Id say that Asia is one truly amazing wonderful place that everyone should see and feel and experience. :)

I am from Asia.I love asia.Good place to stay.No problem.Only that there is a lot of corruption here.According to me Singapore,Tokyo and Kuala Lumpur are the best cities in asia.Japan produces all the electronics for the world and also the best cars.

Asia is the world's largest and most populous continent or region, depending on the definition. It covers 8.6% of the Earth's total surface area, or 29.4% of its land area, and it contains more than 60% of the world's human population.
Asia is traditionally defined as part of the landmass of Africa-Eurasia – with the western portion of the latter occupied by Europe – lying east of the Suez Canal, east of the Ural Mountains, and south of the Caucasus Mountains and the Caspian and Black Seas.
