China can turn on a dime. And they smell blood. https://www.china-briefing.com/news/chinas-entry-exit-k-visa-rules-2025/ https://www.china-briefing.com/news/chinas-entry-exit-k-visa... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jC8f1qs3TGs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jC8f1qs3TGs Give it 5-10 years and the situation could look very different. If they decide to pour tons of money into it, they could dominate like with trains or solar.

I would never invest time, money or my life into a country without a functioning legal system. In a country where the likes of Jack Ma are not safe nobody is safe.

  71% of H1Bs are Indian. They might feel differently, especially after looking at ICE. Personally I prefer looking at the average case: http://data.worldhappiness.report/chart http://data.worldhappiness.report/chart China still has lots of ground to make up, but they’re headed in the right direction. Needless to say, the US isn’t.

    Looking at the average case is a massive logical fallacy. It isn't the average case that will likely determine the outcome of your case, because as an immigrant you are not average.

      They’re quite correlated…. It’s hard for a country to take very good care of its citizens (healthcare, free education, social security, economic opportunity, work-life balance, access to nature) at the Finland level then turn around and persecute immigrants. It just doesn’t happen. It takes a lot of goodwill and trust (in citizens, politics, institutions) to get all that to work. Then clearly they’re also trying to attract immigrants, they can’t turn around and start locking them up. Look at the history of Europe (colonialism), what usually happens is they practice and fine-tune atrocities outside then import them. Bush and Iraq as a prelude to Trump.
