The line graph provides data on the proportion of Australian who exported to four different countries between 1990 and 2012.
Looking at the illustrations, it is immediately evident that the number of citizens exporting to Japan recorded the highest point in most years, whereas the opposite was true for India. Additionally, India also experienced a steady increase, while exports to the US remained relatively stable throughout the period.
In 1990, the percentage of Australian exported to Japan dominated the chart at approximately 27%, which was roughly higher than the figure for the United States. China and India had lower figures, at about 2% and 1%, respectively. In a special year, around 2007, China overtaken Japan and the US, reaching a peak of approximately 28% compared to the small changes in the statistics of the other three countries.
In the last year, despite some fluctuations, Japan still remained a gradual decline, at about 18%. China experienced an exponential growth and reached a peak of around 28%, becoming the most attractive export destination. The figure for the US and India declined slightly to stand at just above 8% and 7% respectively
