Another thing to think about is body type. Asians and Indians tend to put on fat around their organs while maintaining thin limbs, The apple vs pear body. The song "baby got back" just doesn't come to mind with the typical population. Also muscle mass is much less and we all know how much muscle helps in using free energy.
A typical value meal will exceeds most daily requirements for calories for small people. Like us getting super sized meals all the time. Remember that movie, Supersize Me?
They are also eating fake meat made from carbs and coupling that with sticky rice which has the most starch and they don't wash it off.
