Abstract

This paper attempts to find the long run relation with short run dynamics of China’s trade in Asia and the world. Co-integration technique provides the economic integration of China’s export to the US and its import from Asian nations. This study observed that China is economically integrated with Asia and the world. China has double role in international trade – (i) China acts as an attractor of all inputs from Asia and (ii) China pushes the products in international market with a comparative advantage in price competition. This study also reveals that the speed of China’s import from Asia is faster than that of China’s export to the US.
