Nah.

Switzerland has been exactly this rabidly xenophobic since
at least the 14th century.

And discriminating on colour of skin^W^W^W country of origin
in matters of immigration withour even attempting to pretend
otherwise is something pretty much every Western government
does.

My advice to Madhu's friend would be to take her hard-earned
money and spend it in a less shitty country.
