I'd love to have a white kitchen, but how to prevent it from yellowing

I stay in the South-east Asia (very humid) and would love to have a white country kitchen.

The way they make kitchen cabinets in my country is to use white laminate(ABS trim) over solid plywood, then stick a layer of veneer wood trim and spray white paint over the wood trim.

Problem is, how do i prevent the wood trim from turning yellow? Laminates definitely won't turn yellow as fast as the spray paint.

I've seen a similar cabinet with yellowed trim, it's similar to this picture http://www.homeanddecor.com.sg/sites/default/files/imagecache/large/prof/2013/04/14961.jpg

I'm not gonna stick my wood trim in the middle of the laminated door though, I will have it run round the perimeter of the door, I'm wondering if the yellowing is gonna be more less obvious in my case or not?
