Not sure how you can conclude any of them are ahead of US in terms of HSR.
Saudi Arabia has one HSR line under construction.
Algeria is upgrading one line to HSR standards.
Malaysia and Thailand both in the planning stages and have no HSR under construction.
Brazil HSR plan is a fiasco.
US has one operating HSR line (Amtrak Acela/NEC) and one under construction (CAHSR) and multiple HSR lines under various stages planning (NEC extension, Illinois/Midwest, Texas, Neveda).
