Some say the reason why Asian speak English quite differently from native English speakers is that native speaker use "abdominal breathing"while Asian people use "chest breathing. They claim that is why Asian's spoken English sounds shallow and thin, while native speakers sound rich and thick.
Is that true?

I honestly must admit thatI was a bit perplexed at what you meant by "abdominal breathing" as googling it returns results that suggest it is some sort of relaxation technique.
In any case, being a native English speaker, I certainly do not think that I breathe differently than any Asian I have met. Pronunciation can come from different places. The primary place of articulation tends to get fuller and richer as it gets further "down" in your throat, which would lead me to think that this perception of shallowness is primarily due to the process of articulating the sound, not in how a person breathes.
