To keep it fair and balanced, I think I can safely say I have never seen an Asian pilot make a visual approach in Asia, unless you consider Kai Tak's IGS13 to be visual. I have, BTW, and done so a number of times when ATC allowed it.
Just like Al Gore, I am going to let out a long sigh. It shows that you don't get to see much over in Asia too. Many of my colleagues and I had regularly made visual approaches into Kansai, Fukuoka, Penang, Don Muang, Phuket, Pusan and LAX.

Using moving map when you are asked to approach via a certain landmark.......sorry, my aircraft has no google map and I ain't that smart to be constructing waypoints to depict those landmarks below 10000ft.
