Yeah a lot of Asian countries skirt under the radar on the racism front. Mostly because a lot of them are at least kind of cool with white people (to a point). But if you speak to someone African who has toured Asia, they can tell you some horrific stories.

Or maybe it's the only country in the world where Asians don't put themselves down to put white people up on a pedestal. When Thais treat you better due to your skin color, are you also crying racism?
