===Alternative terminology===
Those who believe the term is derogatory or archaic prefer to employ geographical terms for people and places typically desribed by ''oriental'', e.g., ''South Asia'', ''East Asia'', and ''South-East Asia''. Although the ''Far Eastern'' is considered more politically correct than ''Oriental'', ''East Asian'' is preferred because this verbiage is significantly less Eurocentric. Other politically correct alternative terms include ''Asia and the Pacific'' or ''the Pacific Rim'' or ''the Pacific Basin''.
