China made mistake of ignoring India's high-tech talent: Global Times

Why not hire scientists from Pakistan instead?

Both nations have a very good relationship and 1-2 Pakistanis university are very good and literacy rate is not that far behind India.

Obviously global.times made a mistake in their analysis according to chinese and pakistanis.

The post above actually indeed validates why Language is a "HURDLE"
I didn't disagree. I only emphasize that it isn't the main hurdle. And, thanks for correcting my spelling. "huddle" looked weird to me and I just didn't realize why. :)

Mostly Indians who wants to do higher studies in abroad seek western institutions & that is the truth..Only reason is the common language that is English..
That is also the main reason Indians have huge community on those places & have a cultural bond but not to Russia or China..

We are not talking about talents from India in general but those Indians who are well trained in the developed countries. And we don‘t want those "talents" who have ever worked in ISRO...LOL

I doubt there are more than few thousands Indian immigrants in China..Fact is hardly any Indian talent wants to go to China or ever will be.So doesn't matter what you want.

All Chinese want is to hire talents with competitive cost, regardless who they are. For the same talent, if an American is wiling but an Indian is not, that only means the cost to attract the Indian is higher. It is all about the economy.

Yes,there are Indian immigrants of tech background in China that are recruited from the US or Europe. You should only speak for yourself. I don’t think other Indians have any chance...

There are superior companies,opportunities,educational institutions in west so stop spewing self glorifying bs.Those places are harder to get into than any Chinese copy cats & also provide world class opportunities better than China.

Also almost all major western companies do direct campus recruitment from Indian institutes.

Number of immigrants says everything.I am sure there are not more than 20-30 thousand(may be lesser) Indian immigrants at present in China while hundred thousand Chinese are leaving own land for west..
Most of those immigrants coming to China are majorities vietnamese,koreans & mostly from near by nations.

To be honest when I read this article this morning in my toilet I was like What? Global times must have made some misjudgment this time. First was space and now software.

I mean come on. Chinese have better things to do!!

I guess India should bring in more talent from outside world. And open policy towards attracting talent is the first step towards an innovation economy.
more than innovation ,diversity curbs bias and discrimination. It promotes fair envn as ppl cannot form groups. For eg Indians tend to take other Indians for granted and our cultural attitudes like IST,adjusting character have to be challenged.

China has made a “mistake of ignoring” science and technology experts from India, Chinese official media said on Friday, underlining that the Communist giant should attract high-tech Indian talent for maintaining its innovation ability.

“China has made the mistake of ignoring Indian talent, and instead has attached a greater importance to talent coming from the US and Europe,” an article in state-run Global Times said.

“China has perhaps not been working hard enough to attract science and technology talent from India to work in the country,” the tabloid daily from the group of ruling Communist Party of China which has been carrying articles critical of India almost on daily basis in recent months said in a rare positive write-up.

“Over the past few years, China witnessed an unprecedented boom in tech jobs as the country became an attractive destination for foreign research and development centres.”

“However, now some high-tech firms are turning their attention from China to India due to the latter’s relatively low labour costs. Attracting high-tech talent from India could be one of China’s options for maintaining its innovation ability,” it said.

Referring to reports that US-based software firm CA Technologies has disbanded its almost 300-person research and development team in China while setting up a team in India with some 2,000 scientific and technical professionals over the past few years, it said, “with a sufficient young talent pool, India is becoming increasingly attractive.”

“China cannot afford to risk a decline in its attractiveness for high-tech investors. The nation is among the third echelon in cutting-edge technology fields and is working to catch up with the US and the result of its efforts will decide whether China will maintain its status as an emerging global economic power,” it said.

China in recent years boosted the budget for technological innovation by allocating billions of dollars of incentives for start ups and research firms as it witnessed decline of its labour force due to rapid increase in old age population.

It has carried out a lot of measures, including increasing research spending and creating a favourable investment environment for high-tech firms, to enhance its innovation capability.

“However, one issue has become increasingly prominent: The talent pool in China is not large and flexible enough to meet demand for the rapid expansion of innovation capability,” the article said.

“In Silicon Valley, a considerable number of software developers working there are born outside the US. China should also strive to attract more foreign talent into the country as it aims to build itself into a world-class research hub,” it said.

“A total of 1,576 foreigners were granted Chinese permanent residence in 2016, registering an increase of 163 per cent from the previous year. It seems that China is aware of the importance of tapping into international talent,” it said.

“Some reports claim that the cost of employing an Indian engineer is just half the cost of hiring a Chinese worker, which means Indians could see their revenue more than double if they came to work in China,” it said.

“Some enterprises in Southwest China’s Guizhou Province provide convenience for Indian talent in terms of housing, insurance and transportation and could enjoy a much better standard of living in Guizhou cities than in Bangalore,” it said.
