>"No wonder we asians are talking up the good jobs in America, if this is the policy for such out-of-box thinking."
I don't feel that race is relevant here.
race is not, but educational background is. India & China are producing more graduates, post graduates, then any other country in the world. This is a known fact.
In absolute terms or per capita? They are (by quite a wide margin) the most populous countries in the world.
Well, India has a millionaire population the same size as the entire United Kingdom. But that still leaves over a billion in poverty.
The general impression of asian schools is that they don't exactly produce out of box thinkers though.
