Yeah, but currency appreciation should never be counted upon. Who knows, the currency may as well decline. What I don't understand is that Xi Jinping said that Chinese economy will be 80 trillion yuan this year. So how did the figure come to be 82 trillion yuan?

I thought that Xi jinping said that the economy was 80 trillion yuan. If this piece also including the economy of Hong Kong and Taiwan?

Yeah, got it. I think no. For example, India's share of industry in its GDP is even lower than Japan, Germany, Korea, Thailand, etc. Also, being a service industry is only one reason why energy consumption is low. The others are: Poverty Energy access Environment (Unlike the whole...

What does consupation even mean? Also, as far as India is concerned, India's share of manufacturing and industry in total GDP is quite low. India still remains a service dominated economy, which makes it use relatively less energy.

Site as in the website.

I don't know about Wuhan, but Beijing center for molecular sciences, condensed matter physics; and Hefei's center for physical sciences at microscale already exist. Perhaps they are upgrading them? http://en.hfnl.ustc.edu.cn/ Here, I follow the quantum scene closely, so I visit the above...

They are working definitely, but will it be successful? 5 years back, quantum entanglement was already being done at a distance of about 100 km. The difficulty for longer distances was that maintaining entanglement for longer distances was very hard, so almost everybody was proposing to set up...

Firstly, this field is called quantum metrology. Secondly, Stephen Chen of SCMP has now a track record of posting click bait articles. Thirdly, no one actually knows what the status of development of this stuff is. Fourthly, Stephen Chen's constant tactic in such articles is that he uses...

Yeah, true.

That may be very shallow understanding. Because when you are actually talking about any actual use of these metals in scientific or engineering calculations, people don't need to do any effort to actually recall these elements. In fact we read about them so much and so often, that we have...

Actually not necessarily no. It is only the western countries that get the best international students. China for example gets a huge number of international students, but most of them are on paid scholarship, which means that China is in fact giving them money to come and study, AND, most...

Umm.. NO. We don't have foreign students largely because we don't ALLOW them. Indian universities, which are funded by Indian taxpayers, don't exist for the sake of some ranking. They exist to educate Indian students.

Yes, but I think people simplify this trend. Earlier from 1980s up to early 2000s, only the absolute best Chinese students went abroad. Among them the return rate was very low. However beginning in the early 2000s, more and more Chinese students have started going abroad, a LOT of them on...

No we don't Also, dude I have talked to many Chinese scientists and engineers. I know that working language in Chinese academia is still Chinese, however no body writes NaHCO3 or any chemical formula that way. People in China already learn pinyin which has roman letters, and even a pure...

Umm.. Yes. We largely don't study any subject of note in our language. In fact, English is pretty much the language for most of our middle and upper classes. There are some government schools that do teach these subjects in local languages but the standards of those schools is too low, and...

Some of them. Most of them are in fact heavily in debt. Debt which exceeds the entire gdp of China. Also, a lot of them despite their size are very weak at innovation like sinopec, chem China, etc.
