Chinese survey results just in
I have some late results from China to add to the survey results. You might recall that an earthquake in the ocean off China damaged the internet connections a few weeks ago. Since then internet in China has been virtually unusuable and so no one there could fill out the survey. To make sure that we could get the results from the area, we sent the survey by spreadsheet and it was filled out by hand by two volunteers including Shi Heng and mailed back to me.
I've uploaded these results to the file sharing section under the folder survey results. The direct link is here.
Please consider these results in your analysis.

I just added the results from China to the "now" part of the survey and uploaded it under the name:
Survey_sorted_summary_now with China_10years_Bee_Annelie
It is striking to see the increase in the sections: Education and Policy. Increasing public awareness (Propaganda) in China seems the most pressing issue, along with improving Chinese knowledge of technologies and science. Many stress this under "cooperation to learn from other countries". Also an increase in specialized space professionals (not only technical but also managerial) is strongly wished.
On the contrary, privatization is not mentioned anywhere (wheareas it is the biggest hit for US citizens)...
Conclusion: a very interesting piece of the survey... :)
The 30 years result has been merged with the 5 years one in the file "Sorted_5yrs___30yrs_Chinese included_sheng.xls".
"New technology for space mission" and "space tourism" seemed to be the most concerned issues in China in regard to the "30 years" section.
