    Well that and per the article it seems more like the rest of the world that should be concerned considering it's acknowledged that in most of the domains listed it's a competition between the US and China with everyone else as an after thought. I'd be more worried if I was the EU or Scandanavians personally. They're generally the most vocal about preserving their independence and way of life from other major powers in a way you don't see out of SEA region nations. I guess African and LaAm nations could stand to be worried as well but nobody expects them to perform including themselves.

  The technology "race" is heavily dependent on how much money that institutions (both government and corporate) can throw at the R&D problem. It's China that has lots of extra cash these days. Offshoring might be a quick, cash-rewarding policy in the short-term, but it's a disaster for the US in the long-term. It will take a long time, if ever, for the catch-up.
