According to CipherTrust, China is only barely behind the US in spam 
output, but if you add fast-growing spam sources like South Korea and 
the rest of the Asian countries, they surpass the US with ease.

Fact of the matter is that Asia is a huge and growing source of spam. 
I'm sorry that statistics offend you. I"m not saying to use iptables and 
drop all asian connections (though there are those that do), I'm just 
saying that in terms of email (and not people), it's perfectly fine to 
cast a little doubt on the country of origin.
