Asian is the dominant nationality in Suriname.

Specifically, about two-thirds (2/3) of the Surinamese people are the descendants of contract laborers from south and southeast Asia. The two main sources of that immigrant labor were India during its British colonial period and Indonesia during its Dutch colonial period. Among Indonesians, people from the island of Java were the main group recruited for work in the plantation economies of Suriname.
