This is very visible on TV shows like Bondi Rescue. I'd wager 80% of the people they save are either on holiday from Asia or recently migrated from there.
Often the rescued people will comment afterwards that they didn't have any swimming experience prior to coming to Australia, let alone experience in strong rips.
