Especially when “the Joneses”, in this case, are a bunch of freaks that hsve personal servants and pay them like crap in a country with horrific poverty.
Being a class traitor is an even better option.

whoever the underclass is there (Thai people? Idk) a
I think Filipinas make up most of the most exploited domestic workers in Singapore and elsewhere om SE Asia. Hong Kong has a particularly sordid history of mistreating foreign domestic workers - one of the few ways I will admit that they are indeed “closer to the English”.
Filipinas
Boy I sure am glad they were saved from the tyranny of communism
