In 2008, exports of textiles, machinery and electricity and high-end agricultural products were still encouraged by the Ministry of Commerce, and iron and steel exports will be restricted to a certain extent.

On April 9th, the international trade situation analysis conference held in 2008, Gao Hucheng, Vice Minister of Commerce and officials of the Ministry of foreign trade of the Ministry of Commerce, introduced the judgment and policy guidance of the Ministry of Commerce in response to the export situation in 2008 and the adjustment of export policies of various industries.

Gao Hucheng, Vice Minister of Commerce, said that the global involvement in the US subprime mortgage crisis and the slowdown in world economic growth will lead to intensified international trade protection and increased trade disputes.

In 2007, China's economy continued to maintain a relatively fast growth. The level of the open economy continued to increase, and the total import and export volume reached 21738 billion US dollars, a new record high.

At present, the world economy is slowing down and the uncertainties are increasing.

The US dollar continues to depreciate, and the US subprime mortgage crisis is still continuing.

There are various indications that the world economic growth is slowing down in an overall way.

Against this background, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has repeatedly lowered the world economic growth rate in 2008, down from 4.9% in October 2007 to 3.7%.

In the April 2nd update, the US economy grew by only 0.5% in 2008.

The statistics of the Ministry of Commerce reflect the grim situation of trade friction.

In the first quarter of this year, 8 countries and regions launched 17 cases of anti-dumping and countervailing investigations against Chinese products, involving an amount of $1 billion 910 million.

China also encountered 5 "337 investigations" against unfair trade in the United States.

The number of cases and the amount involved have greatly increased.

In the first two months of this year, the 42 major commodities monitored by the Ministry of Commerce paid more than 18 billion 590 million US dollars in foreign exchange, which led to a 14.4 percentage point increase in the total import growth over the same period, according to officials from the Ministry of foreign trade of the Ministry of Commerce.

In recent years, Brazil and Australia to China's iron ore shipping fees doubled.

The proportion of freight in CIF accounts for 60% and 40% respectively.

He said that the high price of international primary products and freight charges indicates that the international trade environment of foreign trade enterprises is deteriorating.

For the current trade situation, the Ministry of foreign trade of the Ministry of Commerce has formulated a series of measures, such as changing the mode of growth, stabilizing exports, optimizing the structure, actively expanding exports, optimizing the import structure, strengthening early warning and monitoring, coping with trade frictions, building a foreign trade credit system based on quality, and so on.

The official of the foreign trade division said that to change the growth mode of foreign trade is not to reduce exports, but rather to optimize the export structure.

"Some companies say it's wrong to talk about exports now, but that's not the case."

Stable export is very necessary, especially for employment and taxation.

Last year, China's GDP grew by 11.4%, of which 2.7% was achieved by foreign trade.

According to the survey results of 6 textile provinces in Shandong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Hebei and Fujian, the profit margin of 2/3 is only 0.62%, while the profits of other 1/3 enterprises occupy 80% of the total industry.

This figure means that although the export of textile industry is still growing steadily, only the growth rate has dropped, but the polarization is prominent.

This situation was reported to the State Council last month as the key content of the six provincial research report.

In the analysis of the international trade situation, the official of the Ministry of foreign trade of the Ministry of Commerce made the textile enterprise take a reassurance.

"This year we are going to stabilize the export of the textile industry," he said.

The impact of the textile industry is actually great, and plays an important role in solving local employment and stability. "

In view of the export of mechanical and electrical products, the Ministry of Commerce officials said, "we should see that it brings us new technologies, so we encourage them to grow steadily."

Commerce ministry officials also said that in the export of superior agricultural products, the Ministry of Commerce will take a number of measures to optimize the export structure of agricultural products and encourage horticultural products. "Agricultural products are also labor-intensive products, and we must win the market for China's products in international negotiations."

According to the export policy of the steel industry, commerce ministry officials said: "last year, the export growth of the steel industry was more than 90%, and the year before last was more than 110%.

The export growth of these products is very fast, and our energy consumption is taken away. At the same time, foreign countries also initiated anti-dumping, countervailing and so on.

It brings a lot of trouble.

Therefore, we should carry out some control measures to control such products.
