But, yeah, that article is worrying stuff. There are jobs going here and abroad and students still can't be convinced science and engineering are worth it. Importing talent is an idea but if the conditions are lower than other professions it still doesn't give scientists and engineers their dues for what they contribute to our economy.

In fact I believe the government wants to import most of the knowledge economy, it certainly isn't generating it from the grass roots level. Quick fix: import some students and professors and do a lot of marketing. Way of the world today really. I still prefer the CEP, and Fair Eng: "Ensuring fair wages for western engineers in the face of eastern competition" :-) It is a solution.
