China will soon surpass Japan to be the biggest consumer of IT products and services in the Asia-Pacific region,
according to a new report.
China's expenditure on IT products is gradually approaching Japan's, and it will hit US$173 billion in 2013, about
4% higher than Japan, according to the International Data Corporation.
In the report, published on May 17, IDC attributes China's growth in IT consumption to increasing consumer
demand and government support for the sector.
IDC China general manager Huo Jinjie added that the central government will promote informatization levels during
the following five years, which will bring more opportunities for the development of the IT market.
