In 1963, the country exported goods worth less than $600 million at today’s prices, mostly primary products such as seafood and silk. Fifty years later, it exports goods worth almost $600 billion, mostly electronics, machinery, transportation equipment, and chemical products.
以韩国为例。用今天的价格衡量，1963年韩国出口商品总价值不到6亿美元，大部分是海货和丝绸等初级产品。五十年后，韩国出口商品总价值接近6000亿美元，大部分是电子产品、机械、交通设备和化工产品。
