[edit] Add East Asia community
The 21st century in the days of a thing of East Asia.You should add East Asia community(EAc) and APEC and East Asia summit.I am opposed at a member nation. A Chinese and Malaysian plan： ASEAN / China / Japan /Korea. Japanes and Indonesian / Australian plan： ASEAN / China / Japan / Korea / India / Australia / New Zealand.
- Those are only plans, there is nothing even remotely approaching a trade bloc in East Asia yet. —Nightstallion (?) 23:11, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Summary of the table
Hello, I'm working on the Wikipedia:Accessibility project, and I've just some changes to this data table to reflect its structure (namely adding a table caption for the title, and tagging each column & row header with the adequate table syntax, instead of relying only on presentation syntax).
An good addition to improve the web accessibility of a data table is to add the attribute "summary", explaining the contents of said table. I've looking at Trade bloc#Most active regional blocs for some description of the contents, but I haven't found any summary of the table, and I don't know anything about this topic to made one myself. Can anyone provide one? A good description should list not only the headers, but extract the most important information of the raw data. Thanks a lot. --surueña 19:34, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Canada?
Why is Canada included in the 'Reference blocs and countries' section? It's population and GDP and political influence in the world is minute and is certainly not up to par with USA, India, Russia or China at any category. I feel it should be excluded from the list since there there are more fitting candidates, i.e. Japan or Germany. - Sohailstyle July 9, 2006, 15:46 (UTC)
- It's quite simple. The reference countries are the top two in population (India and PRC), area (Canada and Russia) and GDP (PRC and USA). Unless you've got very good reasons to change that, I'd advocate leaving it like that. —Nightstallion (?) 11:25, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] AU
Love this template. Shouldn't we include the African Union? Also, why are Macau and Hong Kong excluded from the China figures? --AndrewRT 15:44, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
- Macau and Hong Kong are excluded from mainland China GDP and other figures in most statistical sources - they are counted separetly because of their specific economic features, etc. AU is not present in the table, because its "trade policy" is not yet coherent and fully developed (AEC is expected to be in force sometime in the next decade) - instead of the AU there are multiple african economic and trade organizations in the table.

- If someone could find a consolidated source for China+HK+Macau maybe then the table can be changed... Alinor 09:15, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
