China vs. USA

A new study about the perceptions of Chinese people and Americans has some interesting results.

From AP:


    Asians and North Americans really do see the world differently. Shown a photograph, North American students of European background paid more attention to the object in the foreground of a scene, while students from China spent more time studying the background and taking in the whole scene, according to University of Michigan researchers.

If Taiwan declares independence, spurring mainland China to pursue military options, and the U.S. sides with Taiwan -- which is entirely within the realm of posibility -- the Chinese military should have a better strategic outlook. The U.S. will concentrate on tactics.
