Talk:List of Asian and Pacific countries by GDP (PPP)

Vandalism?
The numbers/ranking is screwed up. Is this vandalism? -charles darwin

The article should cite the source of data. World Bank, IMF, what?

I removed Australia from the list; Australia is a separate continent on its own and not part of Asia. --Lkc159 13:41, 19 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I've readded it; as the text at the top explains, it's considered part of the Asian economic region. --Delirium 17:27, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

According to who? If someone wants to find out the GDP of Australia or New Zealand it's simple enough. Geographically speaking, those countries are not part of Asia, and thus should not be listed alongside the rest of Asia.

Australia and New-Zealand - yes, and the former asian USSR states - no? The list looks arbitrary

Well, I really don't know if Kazakhstan is considered as part of Asia or Europe, but the country doesn't show in any of those lists —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.75.170.140 (talk) 21:05, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Kazakhstan is obviously part of Asia. Is that controversial? It's in central Asia, and that is part of Asia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.199.37.190 (talk) 06:08, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

The GDP(PPP) of India is wrong. It is stated as the PPP per capita of India, not the PPP of India. Iamtrini (talk) 16:52, 14 July 2022 (UTC)

Explaining Edits
What drew my attention to the page was vandalism to one section giving unrealistic numbers or leaving countries off. Since the original source for this article was CIA, I used the most recent CIA World Factbook (2021) for the new numbers. They may be low as compared to IMF or World Bank as seen here: List of countries by GDP (PPP).

I reordered the sections in order of GDP of the region. I didn't modify the scope of the article. If Australia and Oceania's independent countries are within the scope of Asia-Pacific but Turkey, Russia, etc., aren't, that's arguable but fair.

A table of GDP (PPP) per capita of the regions of Asia was an interesting idea, but it was unsourced and out of the scope of the article, so I deleted it. DanDG44 (talk) 04:44, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
