, its place was taken by other sources
in 1992, which continued their dominance up until the end of the period
with 42% of shares, but first reaching a peak in 1992 of 46% before slightly dropping. Canada started as the main source and ended up being the smallest one by the end of the period
.
In terms of China, its share grew strongly over the years by nearly 20 per cent taking one-third of the total sources
in 2000. Compared to the start of the period
, when there was a clear dominant source, at the final stage, the difference in shares is not that significant. The difference between the biggest source and the smallest one decreased in 12 years. In 1988 it was 47% and in 2000 only 12%.Submitted by katja.otavina on
