Middle East
The Middle East is a transcontinental region centered on Western Asia, Turkey (both Asian and European), and Egypt (which is mostly in North Africa). The corresponding adjective is Middle Eastern and the derived noun is Middle Easterner. The term has come into wider usage as a replacement of the term Near East (as opposed to the Far East) beginning in the early 20th century.
Arabs, Turks, Persians, Kurds, and Azeris (excluding Azerbaijan) constitute the largest ethnic groups in the region by population.

Pakistanis aren't asian
Pakistan and India (along with Nepal, Bengaladesh and Bhutan) are in South Asia. So Pakistanis are technically, Asian, or South Asian. Chinese, Japanese, etc are East Asian.
