Tambahan: utk judul ttg 6G. Amerika belum mulai dgn 5G teknologi alias ketinggalan. Tiongkok dan Korea Selatan telah mulai riset utk 6G.

Tentunya, kualitas dari lulusan STEM juga sangat penting dimana, misal, walaupun Indonesia jumlah lulusannya kurang-lebih sama dgn Jepang (sudah bagus) tetapi Jepang jauh lebih maju dibidang ilmu dan teknologi. Will we beat China to 6g? https://www.quora.com/Will-we-beat-China-to-6g-1 https://www.quora.com/profile/Cheong-Lun-Shen Cheong Lun Shen https://www.quora.com/profile/Cheong-Lun-Shen Updated Mon https://www.quora.com/Will-we-beat-China-to-6g-1/answers/155440392 https://www.quora.com/# It is important to realize that China produces approximately 9-10 times the number of STEM graduates with respect to the U.S. (while its population is merely approximately 4–5 times that of the U.S.), and furthermore, the majority of Chinese STEM graduates are Chinese, whereas a large proportion of U.S. STEM graduates are overseas. As I’ve studied further into mathematics and subfields of the sciences, I began to notice a historical trend, that though the U.S. lacks severely, they were always able to make up for their lack of domestic talent by their capacity to brain drain- whereas the rest of the world was suffering and burning in the 20th century, the U.S. had accumulated the greatest wealth from all the slaves, the conquests, the extermination of native competitions[1], the exploitation of the two world wars and so forth. Of course, the UK would “piggyback” off the U.S., that was always and is the UK’s greatest option. Otherwise, this is the 21st century, China is not burning, and its modernized Confucian culture has placed a heavy emphasis not only on education, but increasingly, on mathematics, science and technology. China’s capacity for producing STEM talents will only continue to explode from here. The U.S.’s capacity to brain drain will only decrease relatively from here as the world becomes richer - that if India was able to afford their own STEM talents, noting that the majority of the greatest Indian talents do leave for the U.S. due to a lack of infrastructure in India (e.g. centuries of British colonialism etc.), then the U.S.’s capacity for brain draining will be diminished. Exactly, that if the U.S. were to perform the worst out of all OECD countries on the PISAs (with Massachusetts, the highest performing state, barely competing with the highest performing countries and cities around the world), then why would we expect U.S. Americans to suddenly outperform undergraduates and graduate students around the world when they get to universities due to some kind of red blooded ‘Murican talent? The key is that they don’t, a significant proportion of graduate students are overseas. Though Intel and AMD produced a number of innovations, realize that there were and are a significant number of Asians behind the likes of Microsoft, Intel, AMD, NVIDIA and so on given the relatively abysmal percentage of Asians in Anglo societies. Notice it was 黄仁勋 who founded NVIDIA, for example, or that AMD’s current CEO and president is 蘇姿豐. In fact, Intel invests heavily in Chinese research institutions, and Indian Quora users may be aware/proud of Vinod Dham, “father of Intel Pentium chip”. The Asian Century will be set in stone when Asia is able to build sufficiently robust infrastructures to afford the human capital, and China has and will continue to afford this. Notice, for example, how China dominated the U.S. in the supercomputing aspect, and that supercomputers are increasingly vital for innovation due to advancing developments in finite analysis (see computational fluid dynamics for example and the diversity of numerical approaches to the Navier-Stoke’s differential equations) and computational complexity. To answer your question, the western world will never be able to compete with China, and especially in this regard, unless they cooperate with China and Asia on a more deeper level. 5G and communications infrastructure is merely the tip of the iceberg.
