In many places the vocal minority controls the media. I guess this popularity issue is not a Asian thing only. A significant large number of silent people in Germany I assume is supportive of Hitler's work --- that's what my impression is after personally talking with a limited few.

(Disclaimer: I'm German.) It is only a tiny extremist minority who is even somewhat supportive of Hitler. Even if the media was completely controlled by a vocal minority - not entirely possible in a free democracy like today's Germany - you would at least see these Nazi-leanings in election results. Not the case.

The academic in me wants to ask you if you spoke with a statistically relevant sample size? :)
