Heh. That's fair.

I wonder what other countries do? Do their agencies trust NIST or they recommend their own and run their programs for algorithms. I am thinking of say Germany, France, Britain etc.

They have their own agencies responsible, but take note of what NIST says (especially the UK).

Thank you. It seems they sort of follow NIST's guidelines mostly:
