| Racism against asians in this day and age

in any case, from the accent, and more telling, the first line in the video, this is in Australia... as in Highgate, Adelaide, South Australia.
There was a huge backlash in Australia over the immigration of numerous Asians into the country. Even the PM himself got into hot water for his anti-immigration remarks... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Australia_Policy and it even went past 1973 as I remember distinctly that we chose not to go live in Australia in the early 1990s because of all the stories of racism we had heard.

There's not enough growth to support their current population, so they become very anti-immigration.
Australia, France, ... all suffer the same problems. We don't see it as much here cause our version of socialism is very close to capitalism and we require immigration for growth to support our lifestyles.
