Recently, the United States, Japan, Australia and other 12 countries in New Zealand Oakland formally signed the "trans Pacific Partnership Agreement" (TPP) agreement, agreed to free trade, and in the fields of investment and intellectual property standard.
TPP signed, this is the TPP negotiations end of another work and text after the announcement, is an important step. Of course this does not mean that TPP came into effect, the member states also need to complete their domestic ratification procedures.
Free trade is a lofty dream, can the international market pure free trade does not exist. In the background of globalization, liberalization of international trade more strongly than ever. Therefore, China put forward the "13th Five-Year" period to insisting on the concept of development and opening up, pursue a win-win strategy of opening-up, the development of the open type high level economy, and continue to improve and deepen the reform of opening up.
For Chinese, signed the TPP agreement, means that exports face pressure is more and more external. China foreign trade must take the initiative to adapt to global economic and trade environment, the "new normal" put pressure into motive force of development, enhance the sense of urgency of deepening and improving the level of opening up the reform, to open the initiative to win the initiative of China's economic development and international economic competition.
TPP had much effect on the Chinese export, it is difficult to predict. 12 the signing of the TPP member countries together accounted for the proportion of the global economy into four. It should be said that the construction of the TPP agreement in the zero tariff system, has a certain effect on the China and other foreign countries will import and export. In addition, the TPP protocol will also change the regional integration of the rules of the game, a profound impact to the global trade.
China's total import and export 3 trillion and 958 billion 644 million dollars last year, although down 8%, but is still a global trading power, of course, from the trade power there is not a small gap. Therefore, to improve the level of opening up, is to accelerate the transformation and upgrading of foreign trade. Foreign trade from driving innovation and technological progress, mode conversion in the breakthrough development bottleneck, accelerate structural adjustment and power conversion, and accelerate the transition to connotation development by the extension of the development of the pace of upgrading.
We must continue to improve the administrative efficiency, to further simplify the import and export of intermediate procedures, continue to strengthen financial support, foreign trade enterprises to increase support for SMEs, and by improving trade facilitation, further optimize the import and export commodity structure, enhance the competitiveness of foreign and other measures to support foreign trade enterprises. To further implement the strategy of free trade zone, to promote a high level of FTA construction, deepening the reform of management system of foreign investment, China power enterprises to go out and expand foreign trade development, foreign direct investment increased.
International Trade and investment rules of "discourse power" is a big problem in the future development of foreign trade China. In the face of TPP, Chinese in addition to efforts to promote the United States and Europe and other major multilateral and bilateral negotiations, should also continue to promote the FTA strategy, and actively participate in regional economic cooperation and free trade agreements, such as FTAAP (to promote the Asia Pacific Free Trade Zone) and construction of China Japan South Korea free trade area.
Chinese "Belt and Road Initiative" planning horizon is very high, the development of interests along the countries and regions, is an important strategic fulcrum to build a new pattern of China open economy, is seeking mutual benefit and common development. "The Belt and Road" to meet the characteristics of the era of globalization. The enterprise should cherish this opportunity, accelerate product and investment globalization layout, enhance the quality of the "going out", and jointly promote the China open economy has made new achievements and new progress, to a new step!
