World's Top 7 High-tech Exporting Nations | World Bank

[Martian2]

High-technology exports (current US$) | Data | Table

----------

The data for high-tech exports by country comes from the World Bank. High-tech exports are defined as "products with high R&D intensity, such as in aerospace, computers, pharmaceuticals, scientific instruments, and electrical machinery."

Looking at the World Bank data, it is clear that China is the world's largest high-technology exporter at $560 billion. We know Taiwan is responsible for 60% of China's technology exports. I'll guess mainland China is responsible for another 25% of its technology exports. Collectively, Han Chinese technology is responsible for about 85% of China's high-tech exports.

Surprisingly, Singapore occupies the fourth spot. This is an aberration. Singapore offers multinationals nice tax breaks to produce high-tech products for export. Singapore lacks sufficiently numerous indigenous patents and technology to support the volume of high-tech exports.

The cut-off for the chart is a minimum of $100 billion. Another aberration (not on the chart, but available on the World Bank data link) is Mexico. Mexico has many maquiladora screw-driver plants. Mexico does not have its own patents and technology. Mexican high-tech exports (like Singapore) are due to foreign corporations.

The shocking statistic is Brazil. It is a huge country. However, its high-tech export is only $8 billion. That's 1.5% of China's high-tech exports!

The last interesting observation about the World Bank data on high-tech exports is that China is trending strongly upwards. China's high-tech exports increased by $50 billion from 2011 to 2012. It increased by another $50 billion from 2012 to 2013. This bodes well for the future of China's high-tech exports.

When people talks about High speed rail, they think of China.

When people talks about High speed rail, they think of China.

China exports high speed trains, CPR-1000 and ACPR-1000 gigawatt nuclear reactors, huge dams, DFH-4 satellites, billion-dollar offshore oil platforms, Inspur computer servers, Lenovo computers, Xiaomi smartphones, Huawei gigabit wireless routers, Huawei/ZTE mobile phone base stations, five-axis CNC machine tools, tunnel-boring machines (TBMs), etc.

Hence, my estimate that China is responsible for 25% of its own high-tech exports. As each year passes, China's percentage is going up.

Today, China owns about 60% of the world photovoltaic industry. This trend is happening in industry after industry. The aircraft industry is next on China's list (e.g. ARJ-21 and C919 civilian aircraft).

Yes China has the high speed train built by Germany

Yes China has the high speed train built by Germany

You are out of times, those are the times in 2010 and now in 2015. China exported its own make HSR with her own technology to many countries even Europe like Turkey, Estonia, Sweden.

You shall go youtube to check out those video of China HSR. The swedish minister who travel on China HSR is so impressive with its stabilities at even speed 300km/h. The Japan Shinkasen cannot even match China HSR stability. The China technology on track building is unrivaled. I can bet even Germany cant build the HSR that matches China one.

I would just ignore him. Trolls disappear fastest when you ignore their posts.

Everyone knows about China's 1,000 high-speed rail patents. I was posting that particular news on Bloomberg, BusinessWeek, ABC News, Washington Post, TIME, The National Interest, Huffington Post, etc. for the past two years.

Oh that is so sweet. I tried to find some info but failed. Can you please provide some references in English?

I have also been tracking these data for some time, here are top 30 nations.

• Yes Brazil hi-tech exports statistic is a bit low, well that's not their pillar industry. The country is a export superpower of commodities, in the same breath as like Australia, Venezuela, Chile, Kazakhstan, GCC, Nigeria, Sudan, etc.
• Among hi-tech exports, arms is a major category for major arms exporters like US, and Russia in particular has arms industry as a dominant exports.
• Japan is a unique case. Being world's largest creditor nation, it has massive overseas assets, mostly in North America (e.g. US, Mexico), ASEAN (e.g. Singapore, Thailand). As per WB report, hi-tech exports from these sites are accounted under the host nations, not Japan.
• Germany has unique advantage in machinery, maintaining #2 spot in the rank. US has aviation, arms, maintaining #3 spot in the rank. South Korea has advantages in electronics, advanced vessels, etc., maintaining #5 spot in the rank.

Still waiting for 2014 data, stay tuned!

Some really high tech product which the highly precise gear bearing track that are crucially needed is produced by only 3 countries in the world that include China. A single MW wind mind is not cheap.

 

[ChineseTiger1986]

The civilian tech has low clearance, that's why it can be easily exported.

Xiao Mi does not deserve the title of high tech product.

Don't be an idiot and call me haters. I like China but if I ask for reference did it hurt your rear end so badly? Learn to respect. I did not use any bad word for you only asked you to provide reference.

 

[Beast]

Some more really high technology stuff by China. A reason why our HSR track are cheaper and faster than other countries but even more stable than others.

We build our own Tunnel boring Machine without renting from expensive European ones which they charged very high fee. Our tunneling is one of the lowest cost rate in the world

Don't be an idiot and call me haters. I like China but if I ask for reference did it hurt your rear end so badly? Learn to respect. I did not use any bad word for you only asked you to provide reference.

A kid take only 30 second to find this video and yet you claimed its so difficult to find? Denial at its best......

Yep, most of your posts are pro-China, I knew it.

But China's progression usually outpaces people's imagination, so it is understandable that many people cannot keep on track about China's current state.
