In UK "Asian" would be associated with ethnic Indo- Pakistani races, while "Oriental" (literally 'eastern') with ethnically Chinese / Japanese and East Asian races. "Oriental" would be seen as higher status than "Asian". In Australia there are many less complimentary terms used for any-one of non caucasian backgrounds ! Having said the above, I guess it's harder to pidgeon-holes Thais as the race is such a mixture of 'east meets west', with strong influences from both Chinese and Indian cultures and races. I think Thais are just unique and are simply , Thai !
