Lord Mountbatten was Viceroy of India so if there is an Asian connection it could be to India. However, we cannot rule out a Burmese connection as his title includes "of Burma", and in the museum in Rangoon there is an notice next to the jewelled throne saying it was kindly donated to the people of Burma by Lord Mountbatten!
