i dont think that east Asia will have problems in engish as they will speak GOOD english...
like in some countries, they pride themselves in speaking 2 or more languages, but the actual fact is that they do not speak any language fluently...but just speak language all jumbled up..
chinese and english mixed..
so if someone is in east asia where they will have learn english but do not mix them up.
so in actual fact they have a better chance in learning english well as compared to other countries.

Thank for your idea.However,I want to focus at "learning English" in East Asia - when China is still have a big influence through this area.My Korean friends said that they feel difficult in writing because English use Latin words and they arent similar with the character symbols in East Asian language
Whatever,thank you for comment !

for me, i think the biggest difficulty i face with is the vocabulary. it's a little hard for me to remember vocabularies. i can forget them easily. when i come across some words which i know i have recited before, but i just can't remember the meaning, it really makes me frustrated. BTW, i hate to recite words. it's painful.
