Recently, the news of textile export growth in Southeast Asian countries has frequently appeared in many media reports. The reasons for the growth are more or less attributed to the rise in China's labor costs. Order spanfer 。 Low salary advantage Is it equivalent to manufacturing advantages? What new problems are facing the textile industry in Southeast Asian countries?

　 The loss of orders is not a fault.

India's business standards report said that in the face of China's inflation and rising manufacturing costs, India hopes to acquire some of the international market share of clothing and textiles that originally belonged to China. Reported that in India textile and garment manufacturing industry, orders from the United States and Europe have increased by about 10%~15%. The head of the India Textile Industry Association said: "although India exports account for only 4% of the global garment export market, some of the orders originally planned to reach Chinese companies have now shifted to India due to the rising labor costs in China."

Since last year, many developed countries have been affected by the rising labor costs in China. Labour-intensive Enterprises began to accelerate the spanfer to Kampuchea, Vietnam and other Southeast Asian countries. Some experts point out that this is the inevitable result of the spanformation of China's textile industry. It shows the end of the demographic dividend era and the cheap labor era. The situation that industry development relies too much on low wage advantages should also be changed. Some large quantities of low value-added orders spanfer phenomenon also has certain inevitability.

According to a survey by the British recruitment organization Hays, the rise in China's labor wages has made it more attractive to Bangladesh, Vietnam, Sri Lanka and India, which are in the background of rising raw material prices.

It is understood that the German Textile Machinery Association (VDMA) has begun planning to organize professional exhibitions and industry forums for textile machinery in Vietnam to seize the opportunity for Vietnam's textile exports to rise. Statistics show that in January 2010 ~11, the total textile machinery exported from Germany to Vietnam reached 27 million euros, an increase of 84% compared with the same period in 2009. The spokesman said Vietnam textile manufacturers demand for textile machinery products in Germany. Increasingly vigorous 。

　　 Manufacturing advantages should not be based on low wages.

The labor cost advantage of Southeast Asian countries can be seen from the following data set. Clue 。 The salary level of a medium-sized textile export enterprise in China is about 100 yuan / hour, and skilled labor can reach 150 yuan / hour. According to the latest data released by the economist, in Singapore ASEAN countries, the hourly wage of manufacturing industry in Singapore was 62.4 yuan / hour, followed by Malaysia 31.8 yuan / hour, and Thailand's 11.7 yuan / hour, the manufacturing workers in Indonesia had the minimum hourly wage of 4.5 yuan / hour. In 2010,

Comparatively speaking, the advantages of low wages in India and other countries are particularly prominent. However, the existing labor force level in these countries, especially the degree of mastery of skilled technology, can not compete with the Chinese labor force, so the phenomenon of labor shortage is also reflected.

In Burma, skilled workers are still scarce, even though all manufacturers are raising minimum wages. Experts from Indonesia and Philippines called on the government to increase investment in labor training in order to cope with the increasing shortage of skilled workers.

At this stage, the India government began to gradually improve the treatment system for workers in order to fully consolidate the existing labor resources and strengthen the manufacturing advantages of low cost. In the power loom industry, the government introduced insurance plans earlier to ensure the rights and interests of the workers in the power loom industry. In this policy, the insured amount of accident insurance is 150 thousand rupees (1 India rupee, or 0.14 yuan RMB). At the end of last year, the plan was further improved. In these insured groups, every textile worker receives a education fee of 600 rupees every six months, with a duration of 4 years. At present, about 800000 textile workers are listed as beneficiaries of this policy.
