President Trump’s recent comments tied US-China 600,000 business talks for admission of sugar Students have There was a ruckus Between their restrictive basis. But this claim is due to treating with suspicion.
First of all, the present is only about only 277,000 Chinese students Accepting 600,000 in the US, we will represent a twice an increase at a time when the Chinese enroll is trending down.
Second, while it is clear that China does not want to cut completely from American higher education, it has also begun to implement policies that encourage their citizens to obtain degrees at home. Some provinces are starting in China To exclude foreign degree holders Completely with government jobs. And China’s demographic crises will only speed up the government’s need for young Chinese people, so that they probably put the roots down to stay at home.
Objections A large number of Chinese students will have to do with a large number of students from a foreign opponent with possible national security risks for entry, where they may be able to do acts of spy or even sabotage.
It is true that Chinese students take potential risk, and the US should not look at these possibilities well, but to get out of misleading efforts to avoid prejudice. There are Chinese students in America Reliably charged With attachment to espionage. Others have actively Scared your comrades Here and the Chinese Communist Party was reported back on their activities.
Another more but unknown number has misused the US student visa system Cheating on his English literacy tests, Educational dishonesty report American colleges and universities are also widely widespread by Chinese citizens.
These downside should not be dismissed or ignored, but can be reduced with strict monitoring and accountable measures. Responsible policy makers should also weigh these risks as to how American national security is given due to a large number of Chinese students in our universities. These benefits often become uneven as the supporters-integral advocates focus on human and moral arguments for international student enrollment, but the national security matter presents a clear advantage for the national interest.
The most immediate advantage of studying Chinese students in the US is that it keeps them out of China for at least four years. This helps us to widen our demographic benefits on China, as some of their youths will choose to settle in America, which will contribute to China’s rapid collapse. Chinese students also come from rich families, which means they will spend money in local American economies instead of helping to preserve China’s economy.
In recent years, America is also Struggled to infiltrate ChinaThe detective risk of Chinese students runs in both ways – while it allows the Chinese Communist Party to apply a potentially intelligence property in the US, it gives our intelligence agencies a large population of potential recruitments to attract the soil of the house where the risks of the blockage are reduced.
Chinese students have the ultimate and uncontrolled loyalty to the Chinese Communist Party, the idea that the party has aired by the party to discourage efforts to recruit students abroad. But privately, they are more Clear about their concerns American educated students are being recruited.
On a large scale, studying a large number of Chinese students in the US allows us to directly influence a part of the Chinese society for future leadership with American ideals and cultural habits. We can do a better job by breaking its effect Confucius Institute And building its own target programs, but the way of maximizing this opportunity is through more integration and assimilation of Chinese students rather than advancing blanket exclusion.
President Trump’s comment about 600,000 Chinese students is unrealistic for several reasons, and the nomination levels should not be above historical levels. But policy makers will be intelligent to weigh both the risk and profit of enrollment for US national security during the upcoming negotiations.
