>>China has two ways to get away from the excessive dependence on sales to the US consumer market.<<

I am not sure I understand why so many people claim China got an excessive dependence on sales to the US consumer market? The US, after all, only accounts for 21% of China's total exports. I would not call it "an excessive dependence". If anything, they should say Japan, S. Korea, Taiwan, HK, and China as whole which has an excessive dependence on US exports.

>> One is to increase sales to non-US countries. This is happening, gradually.<<

Not gradually, but rapidly. This is 2004 Jan. - Nov. number

And in terms of total trade volume, EU already surpassed the US in 2004 to become #1 trading partner of China

Japan now become #3
