China is qualified but do you see any Chinese astronaut accepted by NASA???

It is full of politics.

NASA accepts international applicants that are citizens of nations with a space program with some scientific purpose for going to space. Sorry no joys rides for sons of politicians.

Glad to see Sri Lanka to be the first one joining China's international space program.
