Service Trade Has Become A New Growth Point Of Foreign Trade.

Under the complex and changeable situation of international market, China's total import and export volume of goods totaled US $4 trillion and 160 billion in 2013 exceeded US $4 trillion for the first time, an increase of 7.6% over the same period last year, basically achieving the expected growth target of about 8% at the beginning of the year, and further increasing the share in the global market. This achievement was not easy to achieve. P

Less than P, it is even more gratifying to see that the pformation and upgrading of foreign trade and structural optimization have achieved good results.

First, the mode of trade is further optimized.

General trade grew steadily and processing trade slowed down.

General trade exports increased by 10.1 percentage points over the previous year, and the export of processing trade dropped by 0.3 percentage points over the previous year.

Two, the structure of export commodities is further optimized.

While exports of traditional labour intensive products such as textiles, clothing, footwear and furniture grew steadily, exports of high-tech products increased by 9.8% over the previous year, and the proportion of exports increased to 29.9%.

Three, the domestic regional layout is further optimized.

The proportion of the central and western regions in the national exports increased, of which 7 provinces and municipalities such as Chongqing, Henan and Anhui grew more than 15%.

Four, the structure of the international market is further optimized, and the proportion of emerging markets in China's exports has increased.

Five, the main body of operation is further optimized, and the proportion of private enterprises' exports increased steadily.

< p > last year there was another bright spot in foreign trade, that is, the total import and export volume of services accounted for the proportion of foreign trade. < a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp" > service trade < /a > became a new growth point of foreign trade.

The scale of service trade has reached a new high, and the total import and export volume has exceeded 500 billion US dollars for the first time.

Service exports achieved the first two digit growth since 2011.

This is the result of China's active optimization of trade structure and efforts to expand exports of high value-added services, and service trade has become the driving force for economic pformation and upgrading.

In 2013, trade in high value-added services such as consultation, royalties and royalties, computers and information services maintained a rapid growth, effectively enhancing the overall competitiveness of the industrial chain, and extending the value chain that participates in international division of labor.

< p > foreign trade has not only become an important support for domestic growth, but also a strong impetus to employment. It has made an important contribution to < a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp" > economic structure < /a > adjustment and social development. Moreover, the import of nearly US $2 trillion in commodities all year round has created a large number of jobs and investment opportunities for our trading partners.

< p > there are still some data to be commended.

In 2013, the global a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp" > pnational investment < /a > the total scale was only close to the level of 2012, and the global M & A activities even declined. However, China's absorption of foreign capital increased by 5.3%, which is obviously better than the global level.

This shows that China's comprehensive advantages of attracting foreign investment are still outstanding, and investors' confidence in investing in China is still strong.

The advantages of China's social stability, domestic demand, huge market advantage, growing talent advantage, increasingly prominent supporting advantages and good infrastructure still exist. Accelerating industrialization, informatization and urbanization will also provide investors with broader space for development.

In recent years, China's foreign investment has been increasing rapidly. In 2013, China's foreign direct investment in the non-financial sector was better than the global level, an increase of 16.8%, reaching US $90 billion 200 million, while the amount of foreign investment absorbed in the same period was US $117 billion 600 million, and the gap between the two was shrinking gradually. P

It is foreseeable that in the next few years, foreign investment may exceed the scale of foreign capital utilization.

China's "import and export" and "going global" balance and coordinated development are good for the world.

< /p >

< p > but we should also see that although China has become a world trading power, there are still many problems, such as big but not strong.

For example, the export industry is still in the middle and low end of the global industrial chain, and the technology and added value of products are not high, and the quality of foreign trade development needs to be improved in general.

In addition, it is also facing specific difficulties such as rising factor costs, appreciation of RMB (6.1248, 0.0003, 0%) and pfer of orders to other countries.

China has to undergo long-term and arduous efforts to pform its trading power to a trade power.
