You cant deny though, that non-oriental asian asians look more caucasian than oriental asian people. Some oriental asian people dont have high nose bridge, they dont have double eyelids, they dont have curly or textured hair. Caucasian people almost always have double eyelids, do have higher nose bridges, do have more facial depth, are generally taller and larger in build, etc. These traits while they may not be classified 'caucasian', they can certainly be classified as 'not very typical asian features' and hense the short people say is 'caucaisan' features because those are traits that they do posses much mroe generally.
Now I read that in the upper northern part of china, you can start finding people with blondish hair and some with natural green and blue eyes. That however may be the result of generations of mixing with caucasians and asian people (bordering russia and neighboring arab coutnries). In fact it is used to believe that there are three major types of people, caucasiod, mongoloid and negroid types. There are a lot of sub groups within each group but those are the main groups.

Actually, East Asians (Chinese, Japanese, Koreans), while in most cases have smaller eyes than their other Asian counterparts, they generally have much higher nose bridges than South-East Asians.
