China Number One on Japan’s Import List

I found a list compiled by the Ministry of Econonmy, Trade and Industry.

It confirms that Japan must get along with her PanAsian frinends.

Five of the top ten countries from which Japan receives imports are in Asia.

Here they are:

10. Malaysia – $14+ billion

9. Taiwan – $14+ billion

8. Germany – $$17+ billion

7. U.A.E. – $18+ billion

6. Saudi Arabia – $18+ billion

5. Indonesia – $18+ billion

4. Australia – $19+ billion

3. South Korea – $22+ billion

2. U.S.A. – $62+ billion

1. China – $94+ billion

All things considered the total value of imports/exports between China and Japan $168+ billion is almost equal to the total value of imports/exports between Japan and the US – $189+ billion.

I wonder what America thinks about this….I wonder what China is thinking about this.

What do you think about the growing value of the business between Japan and China?
