Ministry Of Commerce: Export Situation Will Not Be Reversed In The Next Few Months

Shen Danyang said that this year's foreign trade exports have achieved two goals set at the beginning of the year: the first goal is to increase export growth and export faster than GDP.

In the 1-8 month, the export growth rate reached 23.6%, significantly faster than the GDP growth rate; the second goal, we put forward the "pfer mode, adjust the structure, promote the balance", has achieved positive results.

In the 1-8 month, exports dropped by more than 10 percentage points over the same period last year. When it comes to this issue, Shen Danyang pointed out that there is an inequality here, that is, this year's export growth rate is based on the high speed growth of last year, which is actually a further development, and the growth rate in the past year is climbing at the bottom of the valley.

Last year, exports increased by 35.5% over the previous year, but in 2009 compared with 2008, it was negative growth.

In 2009, 1-8 was a negative growth of 25.5% over the same period in 2008.

At the beginning of this year, foreign trade development is facing great uncertainty in the international economy. The current international economic situation is quite unsatisfactory and there are many difficulties at home.

Shen Danyang said that in this case, this year's export growth realized this speed, which is not easy.

Shen Danyang stressed that this year's export trade has achieved remarkable results in adjusting the structure and promoting the balance. We believe that the fundamental situation will not be reversed in the coming months, and we can achieve the goal of "adjusting the structure and promoting the balance".

For the difficulties faced by some enterprises, Shen Danyang's analysis mainly comes from the following aspects: first, the international

For the question of whether the export enterprises in Guangdong have gone bankrupt, Shen Danyang said that after consulting the opinions of the Guangdong provincial foreign trade and Economic Cooperation Department and the Zhejiang chamber of Commerce, the answer given by the other side was negative.

He also reported two figures: Guangdong's exports increased by 24% over the same period last month, which is slightly higher than the average level of 23.6% in the whole country. Zhejiang's exports increased by 22% over the same period last year, a little lower than the average level of the whole country. However, whether Guangdong or Zhejiang, the export basically was similar to that of the whole country in terms of export growth.

In the first half of this year, there were 1135 new export enterprises in Zhejiang, and the newly registered enterprises in Zhejiang reached 6.4 million in the first half of this year.

Shen Danyang said that these cases also partly show that although enterprises in Guangdong and Zhejiang are facing many difficulties, they are still developing healthfully.

Faced with these problems, Shen Danyang pointed out that the next step of the Ministry of Commerce will continue to take some necessary measures, including: first, further coordinate and stabilize the foreign trade policy.

This is the voice of enterprises, hoping that the foreign trade policy can be stable. Two, we should create a favorable environment for export development, including trade facilitation, lightening the burden of enterprises, including opposing foreign trade protectionism and putting forward relevant negotiations, creating a better environment for the development of international trade; and three, guiding local business departments to strengthen coordination and services to export enterprises.

I believe that through these measures, this year's foreign trade will submit a relatively good and ideal answer.
