Hi
The current is completely non-illustrative and needs to go. I don't think this is a BUPKIS page but I'm fine to leave it without a pic if nothing comes up.

Current is too literal and non-illustrative. Supporting motion to pull.

Agreed, "bad stereotypical portrayals of Southeast Asia" doesn't strike me as BUPKIS or no-pic, but I'm blanking on potential replacements.

Yeah, I think it can have an image, but not this one.

Hi
Those might work, especially the second.
Hi
Either of those are good...leaning toward the second.
Maybe a collage of Hangover 2 and Apocalypse Now (or other works), to get across both "seedy den of iniquity" and "wartorn third-world jungle"?

Come for the war torn jungles, stay for the overpopulated run down cities.

The essence of this given trope, per the page description:
[...]
So when a piece of media goes to Southeast Asia [...] The setting will either be little jungle villages with wooden huts or cities so seedy they leave marks on the screen. Vice will be both upheld and punished, with the main characters either being told "Me love you long time" [...] or being thrown in some hellhole prison on drug charges. And someone, some time, is getting a gun in the face.
To this end, the trope also takes its name from from a song mocking the views of an overly privileged, wealthy, and self-righteous American youth by contrasting his lifestyle with the brutal ugliness and genocidal atrocities of the Khmer Rouge, with the titular "Holiday in Cambodia" being suggested as a means of exposing such westerners to these horrific realities overseas.
