China's growing Software Outsourcing trade with Japan is expected to rise even faster after Premier Wen Jiabao's "ice-melting" and DHC started outsourcing computer software from Japan in 1996, a time when Sino-Japanese relations were at low ebb tide.
Political hindrances have not impeded our business," said Liu. Dalian Hi-Think Computer Technologies (DHC) Co. Ltd is one of China's leading Software Development firms. Manager Liu Jun is proud of its big-name customers, including technology giants Hitachi, Sony, Mitsubishi and NEC.
Dalian, a Japanese colony for 40 years before the end of World War II, became the outsourcing center of information technology to Japan due to its geographical proximity and its skilled labor force.

Cloud computing will have the most disruptive influence on the UK SITS segment, accounting for 30 per cent or £12.5bn of sales by 2014. But only software outsourcing company resellers and service suppliers that overhaul business and operating models will take advantage of this new delivery mode and those can do this the quickest stand the best chance of making money.
Previous years According to a government plan for the software development and information services, China aims to generate 168 billion U.S. dollars from the software sector and export 12.5 billion U.S. dollars worth of software services in 2010.
