Nope. They used one example of SouthEast Asia, but the rest of the time they spoke in generalities and used a bunch of loaded terms. I was short-sighted enough to fall for that kind of argumentation, but this is actually exactly what that style of argumentation is designed to do.
> everyone treats the place like a holiday amusement park. Not learning the local language, not integrating with the locals, not adapting to local laws, customs and traditions, they're just there to have their fun of being the top 1% earners there, consume, party, Tinder around, and once the novelty wears off, move on.
