in summer when I tan I may pass in Iran, otherwise I think I can pass in Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan as an Eurasian mix (Russian + Central Asian) with the right haircut and clothes. but I am not sure, some native should confirm

Maybe Russian + Tatar mix will fit you better.

Distribution of the primary races.

Odd that they placed Arabs, Indians, and Filipinos into one category. Nothing can be further from the truth.

im surprised thailand, laos and cambodia are considered yellow. They on average have the same skin tone as filipinos right? Cambodians actually are darker than filipinos.

I mean even if they are going by race cambodians and Laotians are not anymore sinid than say burmese.
