Overall, the rate for Japan was dominant but at the end it witnessed a downward trend alongside the figure for U.S. Notably, the rate for China surpassed Japan and became the leading category, ultimately.
Examining the rates for an upward trend, the figures for China rose dramatically in the end. From 1990 to 2005 it quadrupled from 3% to 12%. China’s importation percentage surpassed the rate for Japan by surging from 12% in 2005 to 25% in 2010. Finally, in 2012 it peaked at 28 %. When it comes to the rating for India, it saw a slow increase from almost 1% to 6% between 1990 and 2005. Following that from 2005 to 2012, it fluctuated but, eventually, experienced an upward trend.
In contrast, there was seen a gradual decline in the amount of export which Australians sent to Japan from 25% to about 17% between 1990 and 2005. At the end of the period from 2005 to 2012 it maintained still at 17%. Turning to the U.S’s importation, it stood at 11% in 1990. It fluctuated in the first decade, but dipped slightly from approximately 10% in 2000 to 6 % in 2012.
