Yes, there are self-hating Chinese who look down on their race. But I've come across self-hating Malays and Indians too, who actually look up to the Chinese (some won't admit it though) and ang mohs. But we see many more self-loathing Chinese because they form the largest proportion of the population here, so it's more obvious.
It's all about internalized racism. And one major factor is European colonialism.
