You are right on this one. Foreigners usually stand out of the crowd - different clothing, foreign language, even facial types are noticeably different. Foreigners carry dollars and are willing to pay for their being let go because they are at disadvantage. But Asians or Middle åasterners are easier to spot in the crowd.
