In addition to China, Japan, Hong Kong, India, and Taiwan, countries like South Korea, Singapore, Indonesia, and Malaysia also became the poster children of economic development and high growth rates. For example, Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan were nicknamed the Asian Tigers, while a World Bank Report published in 1993 labeled Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, South Korea, Singapore, Taiwan, and Thailand as fostering a broader East Asian Miracle. 

Therefore, China is not one of the countries nicknamed "the Asian Tigers".
