It is known in India that only countries like Sri Lanka and Pakistan have been influenced by the debt game of China but here is a list of countries which have been caught under its debt trap policy. Pakistan is one of the courtiers which has faced massive pressure of Chinese loans in the recent decade. As per the data of International Monetary Fund (IMF) data, Chinese debt accounts for 23% of Pakistan's total foreign debt. More notably, most of the Chinese debt to Pakistan is under the Under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) initiative, where China has invested more than $65 billions since 2013. The second country on the list is Maldives. An archipelago nation in the Indian Ocean, Maldives has been in news for the anti-India activities due to the massive influence China has created in the country with its loans. The third country on the list is Laos. The South East Asian country has been under the debt influence of China as China has provided it with a large amount of debt, making it a large part of its GDP. Due to the vast availability of mineral resources, China's neigbour, Mongolia has also found itself heavy reliance on Chinese loans.

Why Harvard is easier to crack than IITs or IIMs for Indian students

U.S. President Donald Trump has halted funding to universities it disagrees with ideologically and temporarily suspended visa interviews required for foreign students planning to enroll this year. This move directly impacts Indian students, who make up nearly one-third of all international students in the United States, as per The Economist report. India has been losing academic talent to America for decades. At the famed Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs), over 60% of the top 100 performers migrate abroad, mostly for America. ALSO READ: Harvard University scores legal win against Trump's international student ban (Join our ETNRI WhatsApp channel for all the latest updates) The Economist report says that Trump's policies might cause Indian students' applications to American universities to plummet by a quarter from this year to the next. Live Events Easier to get into Harvard India is home to half the world's university-age population. On paper, India's top universities have a lot to offer. But getting into them is much harder—some accept as few as 0.2% of applicants, compared to 3–9% for Ivy League schools like Harvard , as per The Economist. Meanwhile, after Trump's stark steps, many parents who had been set on sending their children to the US are rethinking their plans. ALSO READ: Harvard vs Trump: As fresh salvos are fired, international students live in anxiety and fear Looking for options Indian students primarily went to the US to study STEM subjects – science, technology, engineering and maths – and so the focus had shifted to other countries strong in these areas, Piyush Bhartiya, a co-founder of the educational technology company AdmitKard told the Guardian. 'Germany is the main country where students are shifting to for Stem subjects,' he said. 'Other countries like Ireland, France, the Netherlands, which are also gaining substantial interest in the students. At the undergraduate level, the Middle East has also seen a lot of gain in interest given parents feel that it is close by and safer and given the current political environment they may want their kids closer to the home.' ALSO READ: Trump's birthright citizenship order to face first US appeals court review What is happening at Harvard? Harvard University has sued the Trump administration to preserve its ability to enroll international students and restore draconian cuts in research money, two matters that threaten the core functions of the centuries-old institution. The same federal judge in Massachusetts, Allison Burroughs, an appointee of President Barack Obama, is presiding over both cases. She has often sided with Harvard, including on Thursday when she issued a temporary restraining order against the administration's latest move to bar international students. On both fronts, the Trump administration has said that it is punishing Harvard because it has failed to keep Jewish students safe by allowing antisemitism to flourish. It has added on to these accusations as the court fights have drawn on, saying that the university has used racial preferences in admissions in defiance of a Supreme Court ruling and that it has broken rules related to foreign gifts. Harvard has denied the accusations. It says the administration is ignoring its efforts to protect the civil rights of its Jewish students, for example. And Harvard has argued that the federal government has violated its First Amendment rights and has ignored due process as it pursues its vendetta against the university.

Is Trump setting up a surveillance database on Americans?

The Trump administration has already pursued access to extensive data points on citizens and others, including bank account numbers, student debt amounts, medical claims, and disability status read more US President Donald Trump might be on the way to creating a master database on every single American, giving him 'untold surveillance power.' According to reports in US media, the US administration's work with Palantir Technologies Inc to gather data of American citizens from several federal agencies has raised concerns over privacy and potential misuse. Trump in March passed an executive order to implement federal data sharing. That order is now being enforced by the US administration with support from Palantir. A New York Times report revealed Friday that several federal agencies have already started using the Palantir platform, including the Department of Health and Human Services as well as the Social Security Administration. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Moreover, there are speculations that the Internal Revenue Service might also launch talks with Palantir over potential onboarding. Now, the US government can easily compile date from all these different federal agencies into one mega database. The idea of creating detailed profiles of Americans using government data is not far-fetched. The Trump administration has already pursued access to extensive data points on citizens and others, including bank account numbers, student debt amounts, medical claims, and disability status from government databases. In its justification, the US administration says it's looking to 'eliminate information silos and streamline data collection across all agencies to increase government efficiency and save hard-earned taxpayer dollars.' More about Palantir In recent years, Palantir has emerged as a top data and analytics firm. While it serves corporate clients, its most notable and controversial work is with the US government, particularly the military and intelligence agencies, as well as foreign governments. Founded in the early 2000s by right-wing billionaire Peter Thiel, along with venture capitalists and entrepreneurs Joe Lonsdale, Stephen Cohen, and Alex Karp—who is currently CEO—Palantir has become a key player in this space. However, the firm is being labelled as 'controversial' in US media. It has been notorious for being highly secretive about its data mining and surveillance work. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD
