Can someone tell me how many different orders of Nuns there are in the CAtholic Church?

Who are the specific Nun's that work in SE Asia?

Perhaps you might find the answer to your question in the Cat holic Almanac?

I am not able to access this site the Catholic Almanac.

Would someone who has this actual Almanac kindly share the info.

Susan,
If you write to the CCongregation for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life at the Vatican, they would be able to answer your questions. Their address and phone/fax numbers and e-mail addresses are near the top of the page. The information is not in my (old) Catholic Almanac. The numbers of relgious orders and congregations is in a constant state of flux, as some institutes die out and others are "born" every year.
