Actually I think Wong was supposed to be a hot-shot eastern-martial-arts man in his own right (not up to Shang-Chi's standards, but good enough) though as always it depended on who was writing the book at the time. And this is the first time I've heard of those Trade Federation folks as being "Asian-based" (you could make a greater argument for Lando's co-pilot in Return of the Jedi).
I'm surprised no one mentioned the "Oriental Guy" from Blackhawk. He was "cleaned up" for the modern PC era, but some of his wartime appearances are just painful.

And I would like to know how I can get a "mustache trap".

Most of you are perhaps too young to remember these two, described in summaries I swiped from elsewhere:
Cartoon character Charlie, an ASIAN houseboy who worked for the near-sighted senior citizen, Mr. Magoo (or as Charlie would say "Mr. Maglue"). Charlie's character was a stereotype with the long braided pony-tail and large beaver-toothed smile.
and
Hop Sing, a hot-tempered Chinese cook who worked for the Cartwright family on the Ponderosa ranch near Virginia City, Nevada in the late 1800's. Hop Sing was fond of reminding his employers "You listen Hop Sing. Hop Sing 'A-number-one' cook. Will cook whatever you like."
When I looked through Bonanza websites, I wondered if Hop Sing might actually have been a strong, well-portrayed Asian character. Ben Cartwright did pay him well, he was a valued part of the household and Ben's kids learned good life lessons from Hop Sing, but then I remembered Hop Sing in the rest of the episodes--"Hop Sing, I miss my wife. Bend over...."
Elaine got me blacklisted at Hop Sing's.
