Trade statistics portray China as the largest exporter of high-tech products. This paper demonstrates that China's leading position in exports is a myth created by outdated trade statistics, which are inconsistent with based on global supply chains. Current mistakenly credit entire values assembled products to China, thus greatly inflating its exports. adopted value-added approach more accurately measure exports, revealing that, 2009, valueadded accounted for only about 3 percent total value...
This paper argues that relative exchange rates between the host countries of foreign direct investment affect their competition for FDI. Specifically, if country currency appreciates against source country's more than its rival, FDI inflows will decrease, while increase in rival country. Using data Japanese nine Asian manufacturing sectors from 1981 to 2002, examines hypothesis context China and ASEAN‐4 (Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines Thailand). Empirical results show rate is a...
The global value chain strategy, which is key to the success of Chinese mobile phone industry, provides an effective channel for industry innovate and catch up with foreign competitors. innovation activities prevented firms from falling into low value-added trap.

China's leading position in high-tech exports is a myth created by outdated trade statistics, which are inconsistent with the based on global supply chains. Assembled products, made imported key parts and components, accounted for 82% of exports. Current statistics mistakenly credit entire values these assembled products to China, thus greatly inflate export value.

The analysis the focuses on China's processing exports, subset GVC activities. It demonstrates that, by participating GVCs Chinese firms bundle exports with advanced technologies and globally recognized brands lead firms, then sell them consumers through distribution networks GVCs. Using panel data bilateral...

This paper analyzes dynamic changes of China's intra-industry trade with its major trading partners, Japan and the US, from 1980 to 2004. It also investigates what extent foreign direct investment promoted trade. The empirical results show that, while shares both U.S rose substantially, has reached 35 per cent overall trade, considerably larger than 10 US. Sino-Japan concentrated in electrical machinery sectors accounted for 52 46 respectively. On other hand, it is chemical food where...
The Global Financial Crisis and the recent slowdown of China’s growth have led to questions about sustainability growth. argument is that, China too dependent on external demand that it needs “rebalance” its economy toward domestic consumption. However, conventional measures external: net exports-over-GDP are biased do not accurately measure contribution GDP In this paper, we propose two simple modifications measures. We argue our proposed provide a more accurate estimate vulnerability...
