Tables turned, 1,800 academics relocated to China in 2020, China beat US and became the world’s most attractive destination for scientists

Scientists leave the UK as China overtakes US as most favoured destination​

01 Feb 2022 | News byte

The UK suffered an outflow of nearly 1,300 scientists in 2020, having been a net importer of academics in 2015, the year before the Brexit vote to leave the EU, OECD data shows.

The new analysis of scientific migration data also shows a remarkable turnaround in the fortunes of the US and China.

In 2015, the US was the most attractive scientific destination in the world, enticing close to 3,000 net scientists. But by 2020, that dropped to 1,000.

In the same period, China went from losing scientists, to replacing the US as the world’s most attractive destination. In 2020, a net total nearly 1,800 academics relocated to the country.

We welcome global scientists, but in some other sectors, things have gone kind of to a very weird level, too many naturalized foreign born Chinese athletes prompted massive outcry across the Chinese social media, for example, can we still call this a Chinese team?

"China's men's hockey squad has with a 25-man roster that includes just six homegrown nationals, the remaining players coming from Canada (11), United States (7) and Russia (1)."

China names men's hockey team of mostly foreign-born players

China's 25-member men's ice hockey team for the upcoming Beijing Winter Olympics is comprised mostly of foreign-born players, including five who have played in North America's National Hockey League, according to a roster on the Games website.

Growing up Jake Chelios and Jeremy Smith might have dreamed of playing for the United States men's Olympic ice hockey team but instead will faceoff against them at the Beijing Winter Games, coming to the rescue of a China squad in need of help.

Great to see the brain drain from the Anglosphere. These parasites have leeched off the world’s talent and resources for 200 years.

Myth that so called " democracy and freedom" attracts talents is debunked, people go for wealth, better opportunities and safe, friendly living environment.

I think this graph is backwards, it does not show galactic hyperpower as #1 in gaining new scientists. Please revise.

China imported football players from South America, hockey from North America, Black basketball athletes or African ... and .....

More importantly, their salaries are higher than the average Chinese people, even very high, they can easily marry Chinese women and have many children. Is that China wants? Self humiliation yourself?

Sports players with mixed blood have begun to appear in China. Imagine all the members of the sports team are people who carry mixed blood and immigrants, no traces of Asians. It is a betrayal and humiliation of the nation's culture and history.

Only when those brainwahed freigners live China for certain long period of time, could they understand what the real freedom is. And what a mature society should be.

Agree. Sports are nothing but games.

We all agree that China should naturalize more scientists, less athletes.

But I think she is ok, her mother is from Beijing , her father is a white American, she speaks Chinese like a perfect Beijing girl, those who are half Chinese and can speak native level Chinese should have no trouble to be naturalized.

a question , Do china still have population control laws.
by the way I do't support the practice of importing , athletes from the world ,honnestly I can't understand it.

We all agree that China should naturalize more scientists, less athletes.

Scientists, that's understandable and something useful but athletes ?
do raising a flag for 10 min worth that, athletic achievement only is meaningful when you yourself achieve it not when you import the athlete ?

China tops quality ranking for academic theses in natural sciences
3:00 pm, August 11, 2021
The Yomiuri Shimbun

China has topped for the first time a global ranking for natural science theses based on citations in other papers, according to data published by the National Institute of Science and Technology Policy.

The institute is part of the Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology Ministry. Japan was overtaken by India, falling from ninth last year to 10th in the latest ranking.

Last year, China overtook the United States for the total number of academic theses published. The latest result adds to the remarkable progress made by the country, which continues large-scale investment in research development.

Every year, the institute compiles data on the annual average number of theses published by countries and territories over three years. The institute’s latest report, which was published on Tuesday, includes data from 2017 to 2019.

China topped the table of countries and territories ranked inside the top 10% for citations in other theses with 40,219 papers, followed by the United States with 37,124.

Tenth-placed Japan, with 3,787 theses, continues its slide down the table since it ranked fifth 10 years ago.

China held onto first place for the total number of academic theses published.

I don't think its a massive issue. i mean go look at most professional ping pong players in countries other than china.

of course more scientists should have priority, but sports is good too.

and if they get paid more, then the question is are they better players than those who get paid less? if they are then its justified (still dont get paid too much though, brings the chinese mens soccer team to mind, absolute failures that get paid too much).

and this whole "culture" thing. like china didn't play hockey so..... its new either way.

And this is despite China still having the strictest migration policies compared with the loose policies in like usa etc.
western progaganda are designed to fool the gullibles who never travel abroad.
The scientists know where is good for their careers & safety.
