The Textile Industry Across The Taiwan Strait Should Cooperate In Depth And Seek Common Development And Innovation.

The development of cross-strait textile industry needs to conspire industrial chain innovation

With the announcement of the end of the negotiations over the more than 5 years of the p Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPP), the world's economies have expressed concern.

For not joining

On both sides of the Taiwan Strait, many cross-strait businessmen began to worry that the local industrial chain would run away together, especially the textile industry which made important contributions to the economic development of both sides of the Taiwan Strait.

But most people in the industry believe that the cross strait textile industry has an advantage over each other. Instead of moving outward to seek development, it is better for the two sides to work together to strengthen exchanges and cooperation in science and technology, talents and other aspects in the textile industry, so as to achieve common prosperity and prosperity of the textile industry across the Strait.

Taiwan's textile industry is facing a runaway crisis.

"Now Taiwan

Facing the dilemma of "internal and external troubles".

An unnamed textile operator on the island told reporters that Taiwan's textile industry has been working hard for 20 years. Although it has developed into a sunrise industry from the sunset industry, the challenges and difficulties faced by it are increasing. "Especially the promotion of the TPP agreement, Taiwan is not in it, and TPP's tax exemption requirements, textile and spinning need to be produced in the members of TPP economies. Therefore, Taiwan factories will miss many opportunities relative to Korea, Japan and other places."

The textile industry said that the textile industry in Taiwan mostly focused on yarn and cloth in the middle and upper reaches of the production. Due to the fact that Vietnam has exported large quantities of textile garments to the United States, the European Union, Japan and other places in the TPP economy, Taiwan's textile exports to Vietnam are mostly concentrated in fibers, yarns, and fabrics. In the case of Taiwan has not yet joined the TPP, Vietnam has gradually become the global textile supply chain and market Vietnam. There are many FTA (free trade agreements) and up to 7 regional agreements, which are quite favorable for the Vietnamese market in discussions and signing, which is bound to hurt Taiwan's vertical supply relationship with Vietnam's textile industry. In the long run, Taiwan's export status will also be replaced by other members of the TPP economy.

According to the reporter, a few days ago, the relevant departments of the island first announced the impact and profit assessment of TPP on some industries in Taiwan.

Among them, the textile industry is considered to be the most impacted industry after the entry into force of TPP.

In particular, 5 years later, TPP will launch a second wave tax cut and Taiwan textile industry will suffer a serious blow.

"Not just TPP, RCEP (regional comprehensive economic partnership) is also important for Taiwan."

Taiwan

Xie Guohui, manager of the development market development department, said that, like TPP, RCEP is also a free trade area. For Taiwan, joining RCEP or joining RCEP and TPP is very important. If it can not be joined, then Taiwan will not be able to compete fairly with the two participating economies. "In the face of external competition, coupled with the small size of the island, the narrow market and the limited development of the industry, the operators will have to choose to leave and pfer to Southeast Asia in order to reduce production costs and decentralization of operational risks."

As a matter of fact, it is not only the Taiwan businessmen who talk about the origin standard of "starting from yarn" that the mainland businessmen may be faced with the difficulty of running away from the TPP.

"Influenced by internal and external factors, the growth of the scale of the mainland's textile industry has obviously slowed down."

China's Knitting Industry Association said that with the adjustment and pition period of the mainland economy, the mainland's textile industry is facing the dual competitive pressures of the developed and developing economies, making the development decline and the industrial comparative advantage gradually disappear. Especially the small and medium-sized textile enterprises are facing unprecedented pressure of development. "In order to fight for orders, some small and medium-sized enterprises pfer the manufacturing base from the southeast coast of the mainland to Southeast Asia.

Now this overseas shift has become a major trend, and the shifting enterprises are spreading to the textile industry chain such as upstream yarn, dyeing and finishing.

Cross strait textile industry has its own advantages.

"Southeast Asia, especially Vietnam, is becoming the first place for cross-strait textile enterprises to take the lead, but for both sides of the Strait, the development of the textile industry across the Taiwan Strait is still good."

Chen Xiuzhong, director of Taiwan Textile Industry Association, said that both sides of the textile industry have their own competitive advantages.

"Taiwan textile industry has solid technical foundation and high-quality textile products."

Chen Xiuzhong said that Taiwan textile has the advantages of good quality and product differentiation. With the support of the advantages of small production and strong R & D capability, it can quickly respond to the special needs of customers. Facing the global market, Taiwan textile industry started early, accumulated more trade experience, and had more experience in the field of international trade and global layout.

"Functional and environmental protection are the two strengths and strengths of Taiwan's textile industry."

Yang Donghui, consultant of China Textile Industry Federation, said that Taiwan textile industry has developed a new functional cloth, relying on innovative research and development technology and environmental awareness, and now there are about 70% outdoor sports around the world.

Manufacturers use functional fabrics in Taiwan.

"Taiwan's experience in developing high technology products with high value raw materials is absolutely competitive in the market."

However, Yang Donghui also pointed out that Taiwan textile industry had new materials and new applications, but did not develop its brand. He thought it was a pity that in the future, businessmen on the island should make continuous efforts in this direction.

"Compared to the overall investment environment in Taiwan, there are no factories, no people, and a high sense of environmental protection, which is very stressful to investors. The scale of the mainland textile manufacturers is relatively large, and the products are relatively diverse."

Dai Hongyi, chairman of Taiwan silk weaving Association, said that the mainland textile industry has better cost and price advantages in the field of production factors, and the cost of raw materials, production and operation is lower than that of Taiwan. It has advantages for the layout of production and supply chain, and is highly correlated with market demand, economic scale and economic growth.

"The mainland textile industry has the most complete supporting capability of the industrial chain."

Wang Bingxiang, Vice Minister of economic operation of Tianjin Textile Group (Holdings) Limited, said that the mainland textile industry has high production efficiency, good product quality and strong overall supporting capability, and every link in the industrial chain has strong processing capacity.

"The scale and speed of the mainland's investment in the textile infrastructure is far beyond the reach of other developing economies. The upgrading of the technology and equipment of the textile industry presents a new momentum of development."

At the same time, Wang Bingxiang also said that during the "13th Five-Year" period, the mainland's textile industry is facing a new stage of development.

During the "13th Five-Year" period, the global textile industry and trade reshaped a new pattern, providing a new impetus for the mainland's textile consumption market. Enterprises should identify their own position and build their core competitiveness through innovation.

Mutual utilization of industrial resources and deepening cooperation

"Because of the fierce competition in the international market, how to make use of the respective industrial advantages of both sides to achieve complementarity and achieve win-win results is the main problem facing both sides of the Strait."

Song Guangli, a professor at the textile School of Tianjin University of Technology, said that mainland enterprises are looking forward to Taiwan's fashion design and hi-tech products. The Taiwan industry favors the mainland market. Facing the complex external environment, we expect the two sides to make the best use of their superior industrial resources and further deepen their cooperation.

He believes that to strengthen cooperation between the two sides of the textile industry, we should give full play to the complementary advantages of the industrial system, strengthen the resource integration and cooperation of the industrial chain, complement each other, promote industrial upgrading and development, and develop dividends through mutual assistance and cooperation.

During the "13th Five-Year" period, under the promotion of "one belt and one road", the economic development along the haze along Southeast Asia and the mainland textile industry is a complementary development trend, and the prospects for industrial development are generally good.

It is hoped that Taiwan enterprises can share the achievements of many years of research and development of island textiles with mainland businessmen and share the unlimited business opportunities of "one belt and one road".

"Cross Strait

The industry needs to regard the brand as a breakthrough for development.

Zheng Kunlin, deputy director of the Comprehensive Research Institute of Taiwan textile industry, said that both sides of the textile industry were mainly OEM at the early stage, and some of the manufacturers had developed their own brands. However, since 2008, the Taiwan businessmen have been developing their own brands, and the mainland businessmen began to cultivate their own brands since the 90s of last century. "If the two sides can cooperate to develop their own brands and test and verify standards, they can not only improve the profit margins of the international brand companies for a long time, but also reduce the import and export of textiles to Europe and the United States, so they need to spend layers of testing and verification fees, resulting in heavy burden on both sides of the textile industry."

"The two sides should not only cultivate brand, but also enhance brand connotation, increase brand added value and soft power, and network is booster."

Yang Donghui said that as a traditional industry, the textile industry has to pform and upgrade, not only to install intelligent and digital core, but also to expand the "Internet +" extension.

"The popularity of the Internet has made many people get used to the way that the mouse gently and one-stop service comes to the home. The textile enterprises should make their own characteristics on the basis of the real economy with" Internet + ", which is not only limited to the pformation of product marketing channels, but also can be traced back to the core links of product design and production.

On the basis of their good industrial foundation and taking the "Internet +" express train, both sides of the Taiwan Strait will surely create "

The new advantages of textile in the age.
