The twelve countries are -
Indonesia
India
Vietnam
China
Phillipines
Thailand

Some of the other countries such as Sri Lanka are considered to be less ocrrupt. Others - many whose names you would know - are beyond the pale. Such surveys are not conducted there.

Bina, could it be that they are just interested in knowing what you really are? I think it is not very healthy reading more into it than it’s worth. As you yourself mentioned that you have been asked this question since you were a little girl, so why worry now? People are curious, and are now curious more than ever. Look at the bright side; more Americans now know where Pakistan is located on the map than they did on Sep 10, 2001. I am so impressed that Americans can be such quick learners. My colleagues in New York now know what part of Pakistan Dari is spoken and what happened to Mukhtaran Mai. There’s no such thing as bad publicity.

Excellent article, Bina, very well written. I can identify with it so much. As an American born woman of both Pakistani and Indian origin, and having lived as an American expat in Saudi, this pretty much describes my experiences as well. What am I? What am I not? I am everything and nothing, and yet, I am accountable for it all. Beautiful.
