Actually, New Guinea Island (including its Indonesian part) is usually considered as part of Oceania, geographically. But, since Indonesia is an Asian country, its western side is considered Asian (politically). But yeah, it is more of a convention. There is no strict rule to it.

AnikaM: "Part" is the important word here. Seriously, why do you people have so much trouble accepting that countries can have territory on multiple continents, and still be counted for the continet where the capital and majority of their area (or population in case of Russia) is. Indonesia, Russia, Turkey, France... there is always someone in the comments complaining. Surprisingly, Egypt seems to be the only country that nobody is crazy enough to argue about being Asian because of Sinai. And maybe Colombia. Every other country seems to be fair game for you lot.
