Well, that's just ******. But seriously, there are enough naturally light skinned models in Manila that those who "whiten" their skin will be found out rather quickly. Those that told you (you said exchange workers? I already know the type) that story are jealous that they don't have lighter skin. I've heard this before and its typically darker skinned women who aren't happy about themselves. Take it with a grain of salt.
It is true in most parts of Southeast Asia and pretty much most of the former Spanish colonies, lighter skinned women get the press and not so much the darker ones. Look at the Mexican day time drama shows. Most of them are light skinned.
