I was asked to write the following Editorial for Texas Institute of Science http://www.txis.us/txis/about/press/NewsLetters/NewsLetter_May2010.htm
DECOUPLING FROM THE WEST
by: Dr. Da Hsuan Feng
In 1946, the year before India achieved independence, my father (who at the time was stationed in New Delhi as a foreign correspondent for China’s Central News Agency) interviewed the man who would go on to be the first Prime Minister of India, Jawaharlal Nehru. During the interview, the future Prime Minister uttered twelve insightful words to my father…“If India and China hold together, the future of Asia is secured.”
What Nehru said nearly sixty five years ago is clearly just as relevant today. Last August, I was asked to be the summary speaker for a conference in Taiwan organized by the Asia Development Bank. The subject of the conference dealt with ‘Global Economic Crisis: Impacts and Implications for Industrial Restructuring in Asia.’ Trained as a theoretical physicist, I kept asking myself what I could say on the matter. What makes this crisis different from all other economic crises in the past century?
Having experienced the petroleum crises of the 1970’s and early 80’s, and later the dot-com burst and Asia financial tsunami in the late 90’s, it occurred to me that this global crisis is fundamentally different. Unlike the other financial setbacks of the last 40 years where China and India were merely showing signs of economic greatness, this crisis is occurring at a time when both nations serve as two risen world class economic powers. This fact is no more evident in that paper after paper set forth at the recent conference seemed to generate a general consensus that if the West is to recover from this current economic state, it is necessary that they fold into their calculations the strengths of India and China, and to not do so will be economic suicide.
It is realized that the rise of India and China may have an even more profound impact on Asia itself. Throughout the 20th century, Asia was psychologically “coupled” to the West, and understandably so. With superior economic and intellectual strengths, it is quite natural that Asia viewed the West as the ‘standard of excellence.’ However, after such a period as this with the West so palpably exposing its social & economic weaknesses, this may be the first time in the modern global economy that Asia can psychologically “DECOUPLE” from the West. This is not to suggest that Asia should decouple economically and intellectually from the West; rather, I am talking about a “psychological decoupling” to undo a sense of reliance on the West, without which it is unlikely that Asia will develop a deep sense of inherent self-confidence and without which the 21st century is surely not to be the “Asian Century.”
-Dr. Da Hsuan Feng |

我是一名内地的高二学生,现在纠结于本科是否需要去国外读(请允许我先介绍下自己的情况:若在国内高考,我能够冲击清华北大或是香港的大学;若申请国外的本科,比如美国,我打算冲击top20的大学 P.S 经济上暂时没有问题,我个人适应能力还行,也能吃苦)。我目前对将来的规划是——经商或是进金融机构、企业管理层(不过本科我打算读工科,可能的话辅修商科)。
像我这种情况,是否适合本科去国外读呢?去国外(比如美国)读本科,是因为我觉得美国大学更能培养我逻辑推理判断能力、创造力、思维方式等等(为将来的事业打基础。我这么说是因为我觉得面对于一个理论、现象,我们内地的学生也许就不知道它的前前后后,对最最根本的原理性的东西了解不透彻,而创新(自己将来主要的商业发展方向吧)恰恰需要从原始的东西中挖掘,把握多个学科的思想和方法,并把它们巧妙联系起来。因而这方面的不足导致我们内地的学生在创新等方面做得不够好。(如果在您看来我的看法正确,那么一般地,对于内地的高中生/本科生而言,美国的本科/硕士,在培养学生逻辑推理判断能力、创造力、思维方式等方面,还能够很好地接受么?))但是另一方面我有听说思维、能力这些东西在国内(如清北)也可以获得……因而,我很担心4年后或是多年后,相比在国内完成学业再出国的学生优势在何处。
不好意思说了这么多,非常感谢!
祝阖家幸福、身体健康、工作顺利!

| 主人回复 | | | Thank for referring the enquiry to me. Right now I am in Shanghai and would not be back by June 7. Somehow the student's email address does not appear in my screen. I just reply in a very brief way and you may forward my response to him. In fact I have an article in the website of CSA which the student may use it as a reference. From the student's letter, it seems that he is one of the top students. If he is the top 0.1 % or the top 10 scholars in his province, his ability in academic should not be a problem.. He should be successful no matter in China or USA or anywhere in the world. The other factor is his social skill, his emotion and his philosophy in life. This means his leadership, ability to work in a team or leading a team especially with other race or nationality. His emotion means if he can adjust to his friends and families. We have seen many cases of bloddy violence with top students. The third challenge is his ability to handle financial situation. This does not mean his tuition and living expenses, but somehow he has to be financially independent. People may pick up bad habit, like gambling. Another point is driving. In USA everyone depends on car. The final decision is the student himself. To study abroad is a challenge. If the student likes to meet any challenge including discrimination and downside of his life, then by all means try it out in USA. The student can always return home, if he could not build a rose garden in the foreign soil. The student is still young, he has "time". Prof Kwan Ming Chan |

I just wanted to share some information that the West Valley detention as of today released 50 inmates; not only West Valley, but also San Bernardino, and Riverside Counties. By the end of the month they will be releasing about 750 inmates. They are counting on it saving the state millions of dollars. So I was warned to make sure I''''m aware of my surroundings at all times. Make sure you lock your doors to your house and car. Don''''t walk out at night by yourself. When leaving your house, get in your car, lock the doors, and start it before you open your garage. They are expecting a lot of things to happen since these guys need money and won''''t be able to find a job. Share this info with your kids so they are aware since I know some of us have kids that walk to and from school. Share it with your family and friends. So everyone be safe, be aware...pass it on to make them aware.
