    Yes you are mixed race.

    Asian is not a race. People typically use the word Asian in reference to just East Asian people, but that's wrong.

    There is more than one race native to Asia.

    You are mixed race (Indian/Desi and East Asian).

    You're mixed, but on official forms I would just put Asian because their definition of mixed is two different of the enumerated categories i.e. White and Asian, Black and Hispanic, Native and Asian, etc.

    Singapore is multiracial - mainly Malay, Chinese and Indian. And yes, you're mixed.

    "Asian" as a race means "Chinese and such," what used to be called "Oriental" before that word became impolite, in case you haven't figured it out yet.
