New York Times Chinese Edition reported today (June 5th): "According to a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States, nearly 12,500 Chinese scientists left the U.S. and returned to China between 2010 and 2021. The departure rate has been accelerating: more than half of them left during the five years from 2017 to 2021. The current policies of the Trump administration may soon accelerate the trend of American scientists choosing China." [Clever] Comment: From a deeper perspective, the emergence of this phenomenon is closely related to the long-standing discrimination and hatred towards Chinese people within the entire American white society. This deeply rooted prejudice has made Chinese-American scientists face numerous difficulties and injustices in the U.S., thus prompting them to choose to leave. The relevant policies of the Trump administration have further exacerbated this trend, as its unreasonable restrictions and suppression measures against Chinese-American scientists not only failed to solve the problem but also further accelerated the flow of Chinese-American scientists to China. This trend may become even more apparent in the future.
