^ Good point. There is a minority of racist, and racist flareups do happen during international conflict. Just walk an intelligent path and you'll rarely see it.

As to other Asian like Filipinos, there are a lot of half Filipino-Japanese celebrates. Even though they are famous, no one talks about them being Filipino or half and yet, its not like anyone is hiding this fact. One case I'm very familiar with is AKB48's Akimoto Sayaka. Very popular IIDOL that everyone in Japan knows. they all know she is half Penoy and yet know body cares. She is treated as any other Japanese IDOL. She clearly looks half SEA but was born in Japan to a Japanese mother so she speaks Japanese and acts like any other Japanese teen. In a minor servery asking 50 grandmothers which of five girls they would like their grandsons to marry, Sayaka was picked number one. Also, Two of the current heart throbs male actors are half Filipino too.

I'm sure the same could be said for other Asian races, just I didn't look into them.
