China'S Textile Industry Is Confident That It Will Tide Over Difficulties.

A series of positive measures will undoubtedly give the Chinese textile industry in a difficult position a shot in the arm.

Many textile enterprises are delighted and applauded.

In the cold winter season, the government's concern and timely policy make the textile industry feel warm.

"As a pillar industry and people's livelihood industry, the healthy and orderly development of the textile industry is closely related to the national economy and people's living standards.

Though affected by the global economic environment, the textile industry is in a relatively difficult period. However, the effective decision of the central government and the introduction of timely and effective policies, coupled with the continuous improvement of the textile industry's own level, have made us confident that we will overcome the temporary difficulties and usher in a better and faster development.

Du Yuzhou, President of China Textile Industry Association, has never changed his confidence.

The elderly, who worked hard in textile industry for decades, has profound knowledge, extraordinary wisdom and unique insight and keen grasp of the industry. Through his analysis of the current economic situation, industry trend and interpretation of policies, I believe that different enterprises will have the same harvest.

Recognize the situation: the financial crisis has dragged down 2/3 enterprises in a difficult position and talked about the difficult situation of the industry. President Du Yuzhou thought that it was mainly because of the impact of the world financial crisis.

"This financial crisis is the most serious after the Great Depression of last century, and has a huge impact on the economy of all countries in the world.

Because now is the era of globalization, the interdependence between countries is becoming more and more closely related, and the economic recession in developed countries will have a far-reaching impact on developing countries. "

Du Yuzhou said.

Under this background, the world textile economy is certainly not immune.

As the largest textile producing and processing power, China's textile economy has been greatly affected.

In the first place, the decline of foreign market demand hindered the export of Chinese textile and clothing. According to the latest customs data, the total export volume of textiles and clothing in China this year was 1~10 US $153 billion 717 million, up 5.89% from the same period last year, down 13.84 percentage points from the same period last year, the lowest in nearly 6 years.

According to the enterprise response, orders in the first half of next year before Christmas are almost full, and many enterprises' orders are not yet available.

From the domestic market, though the overall situation is still healthy, it has also been greatly affected.

In October, the retail price index of the whole society was 4%, while the clothing category was only -1.4%.

The total retail sales of clothing increased by 20% in October, lower than the total retail sales of the whole society.

The depression of the market will inevitably put pressure on the textile enterprises.

For enterprises, the pressure not only exists, but also other factors, such as the impact of exchange rate changes, the increase of labor costs, and the rise of raw material and energy prices, make the whole industry in a relatively difficult period.

"At present, the 2/3 of the industry is losing money or losing its edge, and the problems such as tight funds and backlog of products are more serious."

Du Yuzhou said.

Confidence: textile is still a pillar industry, and it is realistic to breed opportunities in difficulties. But Du Yuzhou is still confident that the textile industry will get out of the predicament: "textile is an important livelihood industry, and also a major employment industry. It is an important industry to implement Scientific Outlook on Development.

There are about 20000000 workers in the textile industry, 80% of whom are migrant workers. Textile exports will affect the employment of 3680 people for every reduction of US $100 million, so we must pay attention to it.

Premier Wen Jiabao said in his speech not long ago that textile is a pillar industry, and that the state should introduce policies to support it, which is very beneficial for the whole industry to build confidence and get out of the predicament.

Du Yuzhou believes that in the face of the current situation, there is no need for the whole industry to lose confidence and no need to panic. Instead, there are enormous opportunities in the difficulties. China's textile industry has great potential to continue its rapid and healthy development.

Confidence comes from the strong support of policy.

Du Hui has long talked about the recent development of textile industry since the beginning of this year, especially in recent years. Recently, ten measures to expand domestic demand were introduced, and now 6 measures were introduced to promote the development of light textile industry.

The second foundation of confidence is China's huge domestic demand market.

"1 billion 300 million of the population's textile and clothing consumption is a strong guarantee for the long-term development of the textile industry, and is also an important foundation for our confidence."

Du Yuzhou said.

More importantly, in the 30 years of reform and opening up, especially since the beginning of the new century, the rapid development of the textile industry has greatly strengthened our risk ability and has overcome the difficulties.

Du Yuzhou said that at present, the technological level of China's textile industry is no longer the state of the financial crisis in 1998. Whether it is equipment level, technology level or product level, it has reached a great step, and the level of productivity has been greatly improved.

"At present, the production level of China's textile industry is at least the most advanced and strongest in Asia."

Our industrial chain is more complete, production layout is becoming more reasonable, the level of enterprise management and the level of staff and workers has been greatly improved, and the quality of products has been continuously improved. All of these will lay a solid foundation for the future development of the industry.

It should be noted that although most enterprises have encountered difficulties, we still have 1/3 enterprises to maintain better development.

In the 1~8 months of this year, the sales of industry 1/3 increased by 24%, profits increased by 33%, the average profit rate was 8.3%, 7% of the enterprises (3198 households) grew 27%, profits increased by 52%, and the average profit rate reached 15.4%.

Du Yuzhou said.

He believes that with a solid industrial foundation and a huge market, and with timely and effective policy support, the Chinese textile industry will surely overcome difficulties.

Du Yuzhou's president believes that the government's emergency policy is only an indispensable condition for the outside world. The industry must really overcome the difficulties, and the key is to further increase the internal structural adjustment and speed up the pace of industrial upgrading, which is the focus of the current industry.

"If the internal problems can not be solved, even if any policy is introduced, it will not affect the external environment.

In this sense, this difficulty also provides an opportunity for the structural adjustment, upgrading of industries and acceleration of upgrading of the textile industry. "

First of all, the way of economic growth of our industry should be changed. We should pform the extensive growth mode that depends on quantity to the quality and benefit growth mode. We must speed up the technological progress of the industry, constantly improve the contribution rate of science and technology and the contribution rate of the brand, and strengthen scientific management.

We should speed up the pace of new product development, benefit from high-tech products, and guide enterprises to continuously explore the market.

We should strengthen industry self-discipline and corporate social responsibility consciousness, strengthen the protection of intellectual property rights, do well in industrial early warning, and enhance industrial safety awareness.

We should continue opening wider to the outside world, strengthen exchanges and cooperation with our international counterparts, and closely integrate the development of China's textile industry with the development of the world's textile industry.

He said that as an industry association, enterprises should take the enterprise as the main body, constantly improve their service awareness, and help SMEs to tide over difficulties.

He said recently that the China Textile Industry Association has planned to cooperate with local governments of industrial clusters to provide guarantee for enterprise credit and help enterprises solve their financing problems.

"Textile industry is China's pillar industry, which is determined by China's national conditions. The textile industry has successfully overcome difficulties and maintained healthy development, which is also a great contribution to China's economy and society.

As long as we build confidence and do well in structural adjustment and industrial upgrading within and outside China, China's textile industry will surely overcome difficulties and develop faster and better.

President Du Yuzhou's words are firm and courageous.
