15
Classification of Countries from the World Bank, July 2012, on the basis of 2011 GNI per capita: 1 - Low income: $1,025 or less 2 - Lower middle income: $1,026 to $4,035 3 - Upper middle income: $4,036 to $12,475 4 - High income: $12,476 or more Add to this classification the term “Newly industrialised country” (NIC) which is applied to countries that are experiencing industrialization and rapid economic growth, such as China, India, Brazil, Malaysia, Philippines and Thailand.
16
In an LIC, such as Mali, a high proportion of the active population works in primary industries, especially in farming. This type of country is in the pre-industrial phase. China is an NIC and has a strong manufacturing sector. It is in the industrial phase. HICs, such as Germany, are in the post- industrial phase.
17
Explain how and why the types of industries found in HIC may be different to those in a LIC. (4 Marks) P E P E A HIC like the UK has only 2% of the population working within the Primary industry, whereas a LIC like Ethiopia has 75% of people in this industry. This is because primary jobs pay less so not many people in the UK are willing to do them. Now try and get the other two marks.

This is because primary jobs pay less so not many people in the UK are willing to do them. Level 1 is a list (you can put a million level 1 answer but maximum marks you will get is 1 out of 4) –There is more primary industries in LIC. Level 2 is point made with some explanation (you can put a million of level 2 answers but maximum marks you will get is 2 out of 4 - There is more primary industries in LIC than HIC, as these jobs pay less. Level 3 is point made with detailed explanation (need 2 points explained in detail to get 4 marks) – A HIC like the UK has only 2% of the population working within the Primary industry, whereas a LIC like Ethiopia has 75% of people in this industry. This is because primary jobs pay less so not many people in the UK are willing to do them.
