I know "asian" covers all types of races that live in Asia.
This a scheme partially funded by local government, reflecting the particular needs of that, local, community in a part of a city over here in the UK.

It just so happens that there's a recognised need for residential care facilities for a number of elderly Bangladeshi Muslims.

The facility, I repeat, is _not_ entirely Muslim. It is _not_ entirely asian.

There are three unreserved blocks of accomodation.
