Beware of those swarthy foreign types

Here's an odd warning poster near an ATM machine in Taipei. It basically warns people using the machines to be careful of thieves.

However, click on the image and view the picture closer.

Look at those thieves standing around waiting for that poor girl.

"Hey dude, let's go rip off that chick's cash..."

They don't look Chinese, do they? They look... Hey! Wait a minute!

taiwanese (and other asians like japanese) often use non-asian cartoon characters in their media, e.g., t.v. news programs, newspapers, magazines, comics, cartoon programs, etc. i've always thought they're being racist against their own race for not using asian caricatures. so i dont think this ad is being racist against foreigners just because the caricatures are caucasian.
