Oh for goodness sakes! How many more Americans are going to be so US-centric! The world revolves around a central axis not the USA!

"When I read it I thought it meant more jobs are going to be in Felixstowe!"

The East/Far East is a common term for Asia (and other neighbouring territories) that occupy the east section of a standard map (with the USA at the left).

This comes down to a point I find most irritating about Americans, England is not a town in South Dakota; there are other countries besides your own with many different cultures, languages and currencies. When you hear a relative term on an international forum try to open your mind and think outside your little country...
