Comparative Advantage of Sub-Sahara African Exports in China [PDF ebook] 
The Case Study of Angola, Ghana and Sudan

Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2013 in the subject Economics – Case Scenarios, Xiamen University, language: English, abstract: The paper employs revealed comparative advantage (RCA) to assess the competitiveness of the case study countries in the Chinese market. The empirical analysis revealed that even though there was a fierce competition in the labour-intensive manufacturing industry with most of the case study countries exports. However, further disaggregation revealed otherwise. It also indicated that the establishment of the Special Preferential Tariffs Treatment (SPTT) by China since 2005 has contributed to the increasing number of exported commodities to the Chinese market. The effect is reflected in the increased export revenue of most of the least developed countries (LDCs) and a secured market for such countries export products.
