When the H-1B visa policy in the United States tightened sharply, However, China's introduction of the K-word visa has formed a distinct contrast in the global competition for scientific and technological talents.
However, as a major exporter of global tech talents, India's tech talents have become the most remarkable key because of the reputation of the Indians for "bowling" and achieving remarkable "war results" in many countries.
However, many people are worried that the influx of Indians into China will be large.
So, what is the purpose of this Chinese K-sign promulgation? Will Indians come to China to "exploit loopholes"? What impact will this have on China?Today, we will discuss these topics in depth. It is not easy to code words. Welcome to like, forward and collect them.
A battle for talent between China and the United States? Why did China promulgate the K sign?
According to the analysis of Singapore's "Strait Times", China's reason for the introduction of a new type of visa is to attract outstanding talents abroad, which both highlights China's ambition to become a technological superpower, but also reflects the "urgent need" to strengthen innovation.
As is well known, China is not an immigrant country, and it is not convenient for foreigners to come to China, so in order to attract scientific and technological talents to China, China announced the introduction of the "K word visa" on August 14.
At present, the K visa is more flexible than other current visas. Previously, foreign talent wanted to come to China and needed to apply for the R visa, but this required the relevant Chinese agencies to issue a "invitation letter".
However, K-shaped visa is different. Applying for K-shaped visa does not require an invitation letter from a domestic employer or institution.It can be said that the scale has been relaxed very much. So, what kind of foreign "talents" can come to China?
According to the present, if Foreign youth who have graduated from well-known universities or scientific research institutions at home and abroad majoring in science, technology, engineering and mathematics and obtained a bachelor's degree or above.
Our initial intention is good because Trump recently issued a new decree that tightened the restrictions on U.S. H1B visas. Former international students or some talents want to enter the U.S. can apply for a H1B visa, when you only have to pay thousands of dollars.
But now you need to pay $100,000, and the employer has to pay and provide proof. Otherwise, you can't enter after leaving the United States.
The existence of the H1B visa itself has a "double-edged sword". supporters believe that his presence has allowed outstanding talents from outside the United States to enter the United States, keeping the United States innovative and vibrant in the field of science and technology.
But opponents believe that countries like India like to "exploit loopholes". They used H1B visas to come to the United States in droves, occupying the local labor market, and causing local American citizens to lose employment opportunities.
From the perspective of talent competition, the United States has tightened the H1B visa and China has relaxed the K visa. Obviously, this is a big move for us. Many cutting-edge senior talents who were accidentally injured can't go to the United States, so they will be forced to come to China, because the visa here in China is easy to enter.
But are these talents really what we need? In fact, this is also a topic that has been discussed a lot. Because some college students can't find jobs after graduation, but there are still many enterprises that can't find their corresponding employees. This is the problem of "structural employment".
But on the other hand, for foreign university students, or for Indians, you can come to China as long as you are a graduate university student abroad.
Maybe after opening the K wording, the threshold for Indians to come to China is lower than we thought.
The Indian Wave of Immigrants
Indians have an international reputation called "digital worms", on the one hand because of the large population of India, on the other hand, the domestic population is very large, and the income is low, and then the domestic digital civilian labor, or so many programmers, so Indian college students have a strong idea of looking for work abroad.
And Indians are also good at “boring”. as long as some countries pass immigration regulations, there will be a large influx of Indians, especially in the low-population United States and Canada.
Take Canada, for example, with more than 2 million Indians entering Canada by 2023 with various visas, and soon holding up the warming group and the gang, according to the data, the Indian population represents more than 12% of the population in some local areas.
In areas such as the Canadian city of Sullivan, the percentage is even more than 30 percent, and out of the 1.04 million student visas issued in 2023, There are approximately 400,000 Indians and 140,000 have permanent residency rights.
Obviously, as long as a place opens immigrant visas or study visas, Indians will try their best to stay and settle down. This will lead to local cultural conflicts, Indians seizing local resources, etc., and bring various pressures on housing, medical care and employment to the contemporary era.
Even as many Indians come with tourist visas and stay directly in the country, Canada now has between 50 and 10 million people staying without legal documents.
This has already been shown in Canada. Locals also erupted a wave of calls against immigration.So in 2024, Canada has begun to tighten immigrant visas.
In general, whether it’s a H1B visa or the existence of a Chinese K-word visa, it’s all about competing for some of the world’s top tech talents.Especially when Trump tightened the H1B visa, China’s K-word visa is a good hand in competing for the bottom salary of global tech talents.
But, since Indians are very good at “boring”, can we be sure that the K-word visa is attracted to the world’s finest top tech talent?
This may be a key issue that we will face in the future.
