The thing is...
1. Indonesian made up the other bulk of DH in HK, there are years in which Indonesian outnumber the Filipino DH. so why single out Filipina?
2. They can labelled Filipina as migrant worker, why DH ? Not all Filipina work as a DH in HK, I know a friend na treat gyud siya as DH and she was just having a vacation.
3. The way it is made, it is a clear stereotype. British-he knows english (Filipino can teach english); Japanese-cause of sushi is japanese (you dont need not be Japanese to own a sushi restaurant btw); Chinese-from Shanghai (they can depict Filipino from Philippines); Indian-studying in international school (Indians is not even top 5 nationalities in HK international school).
4. This publication could had been cause by that hostage crisis in Manila hence the hate.
