Where did you get these choices? Are they mandatory or something you came up
with.
I am out of all three countries.
Look at CSQ and JTA.

Hi Romy,
I'm confused (nothing new). What are you trying to accomplish? These
all appear to be good funds, although I'm more familiar with Matthews
and Price.
Are you trying to gain exposure to asia? India? Japan? All of the
above?
If all of the above, I'd go with Matthews Asian Pacific MPACX (all asia
and includes japan) and add Matthews India MINDX and do them 2 to 1.
best,
rono

Go light on India and China, with weight on TRP - it's probably best
geared long term, and from there you can play an exposure for the
others over developing market conditions as conditions warrant. I'm
assuming you're a passive investor providing established firms based on
a long-term bias, with a few index fund selections thrown as if to
decorate a salad. Since indexes do, as well, offer an active approach
to investing - I question why you duplicate core mutual holdings with
exchange traded funds.

Personal choice IFN
Pros - great market beating (^bsesn) returns, periodic rights offers, monster
dividends, nice stock picks (I would be buying their picks as individual stocks
if I were in India),
Cons - heavy premium
