the terms Asian and Pacific Islander are broad catch-alls that generally refer to people who come from or are descendants of a particular geographic region (Asia or the Pacific Islands including Polynesia and Samoa). The terms fail to address variability in geographic origin, language, religion, or ethnicity in this region, and so Chinese, Koreans, Japanese, Indians, etc. all fall under these categories.
