We have a P courses and honors courses in the US as well. A lot of the image of the super busy students in the countries you mention comes from parents who enroll their students and after school programs that can be quite rigorous. Because it had gotten a little out of control, countries in Asia are now passing laws to limit the times and amount that students can spend after school at such places. China recently passed a law outlawing private profitable education centers outside of the school system
Yes that is partially true, but AP, or P courses simply do not compare.
Higher programs in Asia are immersive.
As for China they primarily passed that law as a power move for CCP members, and as a backlash against unnecessary western influence.
What do you think has happened to all of the English academies in China?
Same thing.
