the point, Mike, is that it's not the most PC term. to be fair it's not terribly offensive (unless you're using it as a noun to refer to an individual as "an Oriental") but it's not the preferred parlance.

and actually oriental literally just means "eastern," so next time that would be a suitable replacement
