| dc.description.abstract | This Appendix provides details of the data summarized in various chapters on East Asia's role in world markets for natural fibres, textiles and clothing (and other manufactured goods, for comparative purposes). The first set of tables shows the extent of import penetration by East Asia, all developing countries and all countries into the main industrial market economies for textiles and clothing (separately and as a group with footwear and other leather products), for other light manufactures and for all manufactured goods for the period 1970 to 1986. Data are presented in Table Al for each high-income importing country/country group. Import penetration is defined as gross imports as a percentage of consumption, the latter being determined as production plus gross imports minus gross exports. Also of interest is net imports (gross imports minus gross exports) as a percentage of consumption, and exports as a percentage of production. These data are presented in Table A2 for the various highincome importing countries/country groups. Also in the same table is an index of import specialization, defined as net imports as a percentage of gross imports plus gross exports. The closer that index is to +100 (–100) the stronger the country is specialized in importing (exporting) the product in question as distinct from being involved in intraindustry trade. The final two sets of tables are concerned with natural fibre markets for the period 1961 to 1986. Table A3 shows the shares of various East Asian and other countries in world production, consumption imports and exports of natural fibres, of raw cotton and of raw wool. | en_AU |
