... in response to Asian Women in South America?

Good, original question that I haven't seen asked before.
According to one of the Japanese sites, there are 1.3 million Brazilians of Japanese descent, 100,000 Peruvians of Japanese descent (remember Fujimori?), 15,000 Mexicans of Japanese descent. These figures don't include those of Chinese descent in many countries, especially Mexico.

You will occasionally see ladies listed from Brazil on LatinEuro.com that say are of Japanese descent.
You might want to clarify the term Indian, do you mean the native peoples or people of East Indian descent? East Indians--from India/Pakistan region have a large presence in Suriname, Guyana and Trinidad/Tobago.
Good luck.
