Very interesting comments about the problematic bone structure of Orientals. Did not know this. Perhaps something in (or not in) the diet?

Genetics. Same reason blacks have lower fat to muscle ratios. Take a look at Table 2 of this NIH study:

The Mexican American number is probably a good proxy for the Oriental average, since they have common ancestors. The qualification is Mexicans are more like hapas, given that most have Spanish ancestry.
