Large Asian country and non English speaking is the clue then it can't be south of China because they all speak English and can't be called large country. Ten years back could be some remote part of China or Mangolia perhaps. I have first hand experience of Indians, Myanmarians, Thais, Malaysians, Singaporeans, Vietnamese, Indonesians, Philippinoes, Hongkong and Japanese. Have seen Chinese being trained some issue with English but nothing deadly cultural.
