Considering that a fifth of humanity is Han Chinese, I don't think you can realistically brand them all with one stereotype. For one thing, not all Han Chinese even speak the same language. There'll be plenty of stuff shared in common (much the way european share a lot in common), but there'll be a lot more that's not. Even more so when you compare expatriate chinese groups with one another. How much will Singaporean chinese and Chinese Americans have in common besides an affection for stir-fries and rice? About as much as Irish and Irish-Americans, which is not a whole lot.
As for the Philipines, I have to verify that they do export a lot of foreign workers. A considerable portion of Ireland's nurses are from the Philipines.
