You're implying there is no such thing as an increased antipathy towards white male in SEA because you visited Indonesia once and didn't experience it there.
No, I'm implying that the alleged hostility towards the white male, in Indonesia at least, is grossly overstated. While there may be some kind of seething undercurrent of resentment towards Westerners lurking beneath the surface, imperceptible to the casual visitor, it has no significant effect on gaming girls. Whatever they're thinking on the inside (and I'm not going to make any assumptions there), the people are very friendly to foreigners.
Yes, my opinion is based on my own brief experience there. Although it's subjective and constrained by a limited sample size, I will still take what I experience and observe in real life over the opinions of strangers on an anonymous internet forum, as I'm sure you would too. There is no reason to believe that what I experienced was in any way anomalous. And I don't think you need to visit a country multiple times, or accumulate months of experience there, before making an assessment of how easy the girls are, or how members of your demographic are treated in that country/city. This is basic stuff that requires no deep cultural or linguistic understanding.
