Between 1990 and 2002 the spending on exports of hi-tech goods quadrupled to US$ 1950 billion. This huge increase in the hi-tech market was accompanied by adjustments in the proportion of exports that were hi-tech goods. Malaysia and Singapore reported a 20% increase in hi-tech exports; Malta, Finland and Indonesia reported increases of roughly 15%. Despite these changes, the main territories exporting hi-tech goods remain the same over time.
