                                  Now we try to analyze the case for other advanced countries like
                                    EU, Japan, etc., which are also rich capitalistic nations, like that
                                    of USA. They have imported that technology for certain period of
                                    time. Japan has imported that technology for sometime. When
                                    more demand is created in their domestic market. They either
                                    import that technology from USA or develop themselves. In any
                                    case, they start domestic production of the cell phones.
                                  Sony Corporation in Japan has started producing cell phone and
                                    after selling that product in the Japan for some period of time.
                                    They started exporting to less developed nations like South Ko-
                                    rea, China and Taiwan, etc.
                                  In the stage III, i.e. standardized stage, they export this product to
                                    innovating country.
                                  So, other advanced countries/industrialized countries starts as a
                                    importer then developer of that technology then producer and fi-
                                    nally ends up as an exporter. Sometimes other advanced coun-
                                    tries also end up as an importer of that product.

                                  The case of less developed nations like that of South Korea is
                                    completely different from other two countries. They started im-
                                    porting of the product after a very long time of innovation because
