Rue Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 B-C China sends a lot of students. Not all of them are their best, in fact most of them could not make it in China's system so are sent to North America or Europe as a second chance. They don't let the cream of their crop of intelligentsia go anywhere. Many who they send have to report back to their government sponsor what they are doing in school and what the research is in the school-its actually as Argus says a way to scout out and report what we are developing and we are only to glad to take their money and let them. I had a good friend doing his doctorate in applied psychology. I reported it a few times on here how he had to report back on new things he found the school he was at researching and when he could not they would threaten him so he started inventing things. He had family back home so did not dare do anything to piss them off. I used to have a beer with him. He chewed his nails right down. Sad actually and stupid. If China wasn't so damn insecure and greedy it could be exchanging information with all of us and helping us as we help them. Instead they choose this ridiculous competition. They have no one but themselves to blame for their isolated, repressed, oppressive climate that does not allow creativity and forces them to be a society of counterfeiters. They don't create, they imitate. They are to our planet what mocking birds are to the bird world. They can imitate others but they have no sound of their own,. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For your information, China has rapidly evolved from a Soviet style higher education system to U.S./western forms and processes, including more private investment compared to government control. China wants more doctorates/PhDs and international faculty. Chinese investment in R&D is second only to the United States. Canada lags far behind per/capita.

Argus Posted December 23, 2019 Report Share Posted December 23, 2019 The more I see what China's society is evolving into, the brutality, the ruthlessness, the oppression and all-seeing surveillance, the more it spreads its influence through the world, the more I think that in a century they'll be running the world. Certainly they'll be running the US, which is awash in corruption, division, narcissism and every kind of debauchery. China's leaders are determined, selected through a very dangerous competition and have a long timeline. America's leaders are shallow, stupid, corrupt, and care about nothing and nobody but themselves and their immediate election chances. Most American politicians at every level would sell their soul, never mind their country, for a relatively small amount of dollars in their Swiss bank accounts. The best thing which could happen to the US is a military coup which would see every politician, federal, state and local, stood against a wall and shot.

No. China is heading over the very same environmental cliff everyone else is for the very same reason and will probably reach it even sooner.

bush_cheney2004 Posted December 23, 2019 Report Share Posted December 23, 2019 Must be a "yuuuuuge" coincidence that China has done the following after tangling with Donald Trump.... Quote China said Monday it will reduce tariffs Jan. 1 on more than 850 foreign products including frozen pork, asthma medications and some high-tech components to spur economic development. https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/china-tariff-cuts-1.5406562 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-TSS- Posted December 24, 2019 Report Share Posted December 24, 2019 (edited) People are paying so much attention to the growing amount of muslims and hence their influence in the western world that at the same time the Chinese are creeping in a stealthily way increasing their influence around the world. We all know muslims will never take over the world. They are too undeveloped for that. They will only cause maximum nuisance in the form of terrorism and creating no-go zones in western cities but further than that, no chance. A totally different thing with China.
