China and India are also deeply racist. I'm Indian, and I've been to China.

If you're brown skinned in China, you are treated far worse than you are in the US. Likewise, if you're Chinese (or look Chinese - people from the North East of India), most of India treats you very badly. And if you're a woman with Chinese features.. well let's just say that there's a (deeply pejorative) term for that in India.

In both countries, if you're white (occidental), you'll be treated MUCH MUCH better than a darker skinned person.

And if you're black.. it's even worse.

So it's not easy for Indians to move to China, or for a Chinese person to move to India. Of course moving back to your own country of origin is (usually) easier.
