While overt racism is uncommon, one of the inherited traits from Spanish rule is that the 'whiter' a person is, the more power and privileges are associated with him or her. A related cultural conception to this is also the believe that beautyis a product of race, so people with European features can expect a lot of attention. However, people of Asian or African backgrounds can also be expected to receive more attention than when they were back home - specially women: Machismo or male chauvinism is common in small towns and villages, but not so in larger cities. On such places, whistles and inappropriate comments directed to unaccompanied women are common as well.

The ethnicity of an interpreter is not necessarily as important as the ability of the interpreter to accurately interpret what is being communicated.

For example, for sign-language interpreters, ethnicity plays a little role, if any, in the ability to accurately relay the information.
