According to Australian Standard Classification of Cultural and Ethnic Groups (ASCCEG)[1] the follwing is a list of ethnic groups belonging to the category of North African and Middle Eastern:

ARAB: Algerian, Egyptian, Iraqi, Jordanian, Kuwaiti, Lebanese, Libyan, Moroccan, Palestinian, Saudi Arabian, Syrian, Tunisian, Yemeni, Bahraini, Emirati, Omani, Qatari, Arab, nec
JEWISH: Jewish
Peoples of the Sudan: Bari, Darfur, Dinka, Nuer, South Sudanese, Sudanese, Peoples of the Sudan, nec
Other North African and Middle Eastern: Berber, Coptic, Iranian, Kurdish, Turkish, Assyrian, Chaldean, Mandaean, Nubian, Yezidi, Other North African and Middle Eastern, nec

So according to this, the above Ethnic Groups are NOT Asian Australian and instead should be classified as North African and Middle Eastern respectfully. SCN 1999 (talk) 03:40, 19 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
