Research Abstract |
I have measured productivity level and productivity growth of Japan, China and South Korea by using total labor productivity and have gotten following results. The productivity growths of China for recent several decades have been by no means inferior to those of Japan and South Korea in the high growth periods. But its productivity level in present time is much lower than those of Japan and South Korea and the gaps are large. The productivities of South Korean industries have been growing. In 2005、productivities of South Korean several industries, for example wholesale and retail trades, hotels and agriculture are higher than those of Japanese one, but in average of all industries, Japanese productivity is higher than South Korean productivity.
