Description
Students in Asia have been influenced by the disruptions from COVID-19 global health crisis and the growing influence of the new geopolitics in international higher education Against this context, this study critically examines how Asian, particularly Chinese students, evaluate their experience and conceive their overseas learning plans. The first part of the chapter discusses how the rise of racism during the COVID crisis has affected Asian students and citizens in the United States. It then discusses how the cultural and racial discrimination has affected conceptions of citizens during the COVID-19 crisis. Subsequently, it presents the research findings generated from surveys conducted by the research team at Lingnan University in Hong Kong on how Chinese students conceive their learning abroad plan. The chapter discusses these empirical findings and draws implications for international higher education development.
