There are fundamental differences between Asian cultures and Western ones, particularly in how they view the individual versus the community, and the relationship between the young and the elderly. In many Asian cultures, the community is often placed above the individual, while in the West, individualism tends to take precedence. These perspectives have evolved differently over time, and each has its own advantages and drawbacks—there’s no single “correct” way.
That said, it would definitely be more challenging to implement this kind of community-first mindset in the U.S. or Europe.
