Action Plan For The Three Year Development Of Cross Border E-Commerce In Zhejiang

In this year's government work report, we propose to expand cross-border e-commerce pilot projects, support enterprises to build a number of export products "overseas warehouse", and promote the development of foreign trade comprehensive service enterprises.

According to the "three year plan of action for cross-border e-commerce development in Zhejiang" issued in early 2015, Zhejiang will actively support powerful enterprises to set up overseas warehouses in the main export markets of cross-border e-commerce such as the United States, Russia and the United Kingdom. By 2017, 60 public overseas warehouses that will cover the world's main export countries will be built.

At the time of the national two sessions, the General Administration of Customs issued the import and export data in February as scheduled. The overall performance is still not satisfactory.

On the whole, imports and exports, exports and imports in the first 2 months were down by 2 figures, 12.6%, 13.1% and 11.8% respectively.

Only in February, if it is worse in nominal terms,

Exports and imports fell by 15.7%, 20.6% and 8% respectively. Among them, apart from the external market downturn and the low price of commodity prices compared with the same period last year, there is another important factor, that is, the dislocation of the Spring Festival holiday.

According to the data released by the General Administration, if the Spring Festival factor is deducted, the value of imports and exports, exports and imports in the month of February after the seasonally adjusted decline will be 2.9%, 0.8% and 5.5% respectively, which is basically in line with the current international and domestic situation.

In March, more than CPI, imports and exports and other macroeconomic data have aroused global concern.

Because this report is not only a summary of China's economic and social development in the past year, but also a development goal for the new year's work.

Before the two sessions this year, there were media to take stock of the main goals of economic and social development determined by China's 2015 government work report. Of these 25 quantitative indicators, only the "import and export growth of about 6%" has not been achieved, or the actual situation has not yet reached the standard.

Seeking truth from facts is not.

A big problem has occurred itself, but many unexpected or unexpected events happened in 2015, resulting in the global trade market shrinking again after 7 years.

For example, crude oil and other commodity prices fell off cliff, geopolitical drag on some parts of the economic turmoil.

According to the latest data published by the world trade organization, global exports declined by about 11% in 2015 (according to US dollars), China's exports fell only by 2.8%, while exports of the EU, the United States and Japan dropped by 19.4%, 7.1% and 9.4% respectively, and exports of India, Brazil, Russia and South Africa dropped 17.2%, 15.1%, 31.6% and 11.5%, respectively.

In view of this, China's exports over the past year have been much better than traditional developed markets or emerging markets.

Perhaps due to the increasing number of uncertainties in the global economy and external environment, the 2016 government work report did not set quantitative goals for China's foreign trade development, but put forward the four word requirement of "stabilization and improvement".

The author believes that this practice is the performance of this government's pursuit of seeking truth from facts and respect for market rules.

After all, foreign trade, especially exports, can not be decided by the Chinese government or Chinese enterprises, but not by strong buying and selling. It must follow and adapt to the changing laws and tempo of the global environment.

However, I do not think that setting quantitative goals does not mean that we can do nothing.

In accordance with the requirements of the key work of 2016 in the government work report this year, China's opening up work is highlighted by a new word, and foreign trade also needs to go out of a new path.

In recent years, in the face of new changes in the pattern of global economic cooperation and competition, China has pushed ahead with a new round of high level opening to the outside world at the same time of deepening the reform in an all-round way.

In the overall work of opening to the outside world this year, we have stressed the importance of constantly enhancing new momentum, adding new impetus and increasing innovation advantages in development, reform and competition.

Especially in foreign trade, it is clear that "innovation and development" should be put forward. "Innovation and development" is also one of the five major development ideas of the "13th Five-Year" period proposed in the "13th Five-Year plan" proposal.
