To be honest, i have seen this in almost all asian countries i have been to from. china to korea to thailand to malaysia etc, obviously white skin is envied and respected, while darker skin(doesnt always have to be black ) is looked down upon. Plus its easier to get girls there when you are white @Peter C .
Overall, i dont think its racism per se, more like ignorance. IMO. As asians only recently started to mingle with people from other races in their country, compared to we in europe who have been in contact/mingled with other races for ages(through immigration and colonisation etc).
Its definitely an Asian thing, but in the specific case of Thailand, its racism for sure, they very much look down on Thai people of dark skin. I lived there for 7 years and yes, white caucasians can definitely get girls very easily down there.
