>But most Asian former-colonies don't

Is there a reason behind this? I'm Viet and literally never hear anyone speaks French.

While they may have languages like French or Portuguese as their official language not a great deal of people actually speak these languages in some countries (Though some have many), they speak their own languages over European ones typically.
