In recent years, China has expanded favorable visa policies to attract more talents from across the world.

For example, the "Thousand Talents" Plan, which is the national Recruitment Program of Global Experts.

At the same time, China is also drafting regulations on permanent residence, also known as the Chinese Green Card, to lower the application and approval threshold for high-end foreign talent.

Since 2003, China has granted permanent residency to about 5,000 foreign applicants among roughly 600,000 foreigners living in the country, mainly for high-end foreign experts, people with large investments or outstanding contributions to the country, as well as spouses or relatives of Chinese citizens for the purpose of family reunion.

What are the expert opinions on whether or not China should further loosen the Green Card Policy?
