The Central Statistics Office records the following levels of total trade with mainland China: In 2000, total trade was worth €1.066 billion; in 2001 it was €1.424 billion; in 2002 it was €2.031 billion; and in 2003 it was €2.798 billion. These figures do not include trade with Hong Kong, Macao or Taiwan. The growth in trade between us is a clear indication of the success of the Government's Asia strategy.
