Sadly, Southeast Asians will be discriminated against. Many in the ME consider them the "help" and if one is a teacher they just don't give them the same respect sadly. I've seen some good Asian teachers rejected for jobs simply because of their nationality and others who are currently teaching in those positions are terrible. I agree with the above statement that an African-American will generally be fine because some Saudis are quite dark so they would see you as more of an equal and, despite what the media tells us, they really do like Americans so you will be fine.
