i think Chinese is the hardest to learn because of all the characters and that kind of stuff. i think the easiest to learn would be Hmong becuause there is no characters and you wouldn't have to memorize that much just the basic.

It definitely depends on what you're already familiar with. But here's my list of "easiest" Asian languages to learn if you're fluent in English:
1. Indonesian
2. Malaysian
3. Brunei
4. Tagalog
5. Vietnamese
6. Hmong

I've heard Chinese is the hardest language to learn. Props to the people that already know a good deal of writing and speaking of Chinese.

i would think vietnamiese as they used latin alphabets, not characters like chinese or japanese. so once you learn the word structure, its pretty easy to learn

i think korean is easier than chinese and japanese but its still hard..

Mandarin is easy to learn how to speak coz of pinyi .......
But Japanese is easier to understand from alphabetic parts.

Since they romanized the Malay writings, Malay is the easiest to learn! (it's really pretty easy to begin with anyway). Your grammar may suck but chances are the other person may still understand your point so yup, Malay is the easiest. And the hardest is of cos Mandarin..
