Asian equity markets ended mostly in green on Friday as better-than-expected US economic data and higher oil prices offset concerns surrounding deepening political turmoil in Washington and the Brazilian political crisis. Japanese shares closed higher even as the dollar edged lower after a modest recovery overnight. Further, Chinese shares were little changed, as soothing regulatory comments and the central bank's injection offset worries over tighter regulations and economic growth. Official data showed foreign direct investment into China decreased 4.3 percent from last year in April.
