WTO litigation kicked open import barriers next import car threshold or lower

Recently, the WTO Doha round non-agricultural products (000061) market access negotiating group urges negotiators at the end of the car market entry threshold. This means that the automobile market between the Member States will further open up the domestic car manufacturers difficult from government barriers to trade in for special protection, must be involved in international competition.

Fast import cars

DRC study results show that the automotive industry is a 1: 10 in the industry, the automotive industry 1 unit of output, you can drive the national economy as a whole, the overall increase in all sectors of 10 units of output.

According to the national development and Reform Commission statistics, China automotive industry GDP share of GDP has been more than 8%, if the entire upstream and downstream sectors of the automotive industry on the national economy by stimulating effect of far more than 10%. It has been said that the car has become pull consumer's first engine. For others, the automotive industry is equally important.

During the Uruguay Round negotiations, the automotive market entry threshold is the focus of the negotiations. Japan, the United States, EU and other car-producing countries to reduce motor vehicle and parts of import tariffs, intended to make its technical superiority, occupying the international market. While the technology behind developing countries seeking to protect the domestic automobile industry, would not significantly open car market. Finally, Member States agree to further reduce automobile import tariffs, and prohibition of import automotive setting non-tariff barriers.

These agreements did not prevent the Member States on the protection of local automobile manufacturers in disguise. In 1995, the United States under the 1974 Trade Act to impose additional tariff Japan Automobile; 1992, Poland in accordance with the EC Treaty, signed on motor vehicles from EC import tariff on imported from other countries tariffs; in 1995, the Government of Brazil requested in the foreign manufacturers have to use a certain proportion of the local parts and exports must achieve the required scaling; Philippines Government requirements in the country of registration of foreign manufacturers have to use a certain proportion of home accessories, and in Exchange, "from your self", that can be used only for the purchase of foreign currency export of the imported vehicles or accessories.

From 1993-1996, the Indonesia Government launched a series of "national car revitalization plan. For example, if you import a vehicle using a certain proportion of Indonesian production accessories, then enter the Indonesian market can enjoy tariff relief treatment, use more Indonesian production accessories, the lower the tariffs; for some brands of luxury cars, if its use in Indonesian 60% of production accessories, the sales tax rate is 20%, if there is no production of parts in Indonesia reached 60%, the sales tax rate is 35%.

India has been on its domestic automobile manufacturers to give special protection, had to pay the balance of trade against the limit imposed on imported cars. In December 1997, India has introduced a new measures, only those with India Government signed a memorandum of joint venture enterprises to obtain the production or import of the automobile license. The memorandum calls foreign producers must undertake in the first three years at least $ 5 million capital injection, you must use a certain proportion of India production parts, motor vehicle and its accessories must be maintained and export balance.

In 1965, the United States and Canada signed the Treaty, if United States car dealer sales Canada production cars remain within a certain ratio, and its "Canada-added" reaches a certain percentage, you can enjoy zero import tariff. The tariff preferences are only United States producers, producers in other countries (such as Japan) unable to get.

The Chinese Government has given the domestic automobile industry must be protected. 2004-2005, the State has introduced the automobile industry development policy and imported parts management policies, requirements if assembled vehicle's total value of imported accessories reaches 60% of the price for the car, or use a set number of core components, or use a set of Assembly parts, in accordance with the import vehicle tax rate (25%) taxes on the import of parts, accessories and more in the import rate by about 10 percentage points. At the same time, in the management of the use of imported accessories to impose restrictions.

Visible, import car trade barriers in various forms, its fundamental purpose is to restrict foreign producers, to the local producers to provide special protection. Although the WTO agreement on trade-related investment measures (TRIMS) on some non-tariff barriers specifically prohibited, the GATT (1994) and the agreement on trade in services is also more involved, but the auto industry's profits and in the important position in the national economy, it is difficult to make WTO member countries to handing the domestic market.

Action kicked open the entry threshold

There are barriers to action. As of now, the WTO has accepted the 17 cases involving automobile market access cases, of which seven were substantive proceedings. These cases include: 1996 in October and November, the EU and Japan respectively prosecution Indonesia; July and August 1998, the EU and Canada; respectively against Japan in October 1998 and June 1999, the European Union and the United States prosecuted India respectively; in March 2006 to April, the European Union, the United States and Canada against China, respectively. 10 cases or disputes parties reached a settlement agreement, either.

The car is different from other goods, vehicle importation and parts imported from the customs measures for foreign investments subject to host country of the adjustment of the investment policy. As early as in the Uruguay Round negotiations, the European Member States wish to establish a uniform investment policy of investment in developing countries, open market, and finally reached a compromise agreement on TRIMS of merely requires Member States not to force foreign investors use the host's local products or import-substituting products, could not claim balanced and export, cannot impose restrictions on other foreign exchange investment policy at present there is no conclusion.

All in all, these cases there are two common features. First, the prosecution's case, that is the prosecution violated the TRIMS Agreement, no

In accordance with the GATT (1994) "on imported cars to give national treatment and MFN treatment; the second is in favour of the prosecution have not been, and are reluctant or finally reluctantly complied with a ruling.

These proceedings have a demonstration effect, since 2007 is no longer accepting the WTO. The Member States on the non-tariff barriers to imports of motor vehicles, increasing the degree of market opening, the import duty is also declining trend. It can be said that the WTO proceedings last kicked open the imported car market access threshold.

Innovation is the only way for China's car industry

Mutual opening up of markets is not equal to each other. In the face of Japan, the United States and the EU and other automotive technology powers, developing national automobile industry pressure, and international brand manufacturers to establish joint ventures, with the latter's brand and technology advantage to a living space. Either in China or Southeast Asia, Europe and Japan brand is everywhere in the automotive market. Them in developing countries and earn enough money.

According to statistics, 2009 China Automotive companies have earned pot full of pot full of joint ventures is still the main source of profit; SAIC group to 272 million of annual sales leads the Chinese automobile market, an increase of sales volume increased by 57%, net profit increase of 900%, which Shanghai VW, Shanghai GM, and other joint brand in total sales volume of more than 90%. You can imagine, foreign investors get a huge income.

China has more than last year, the United States became the world's largest automobile market. Germany, Japan's producers prepare for enormous investment in the Chinese market. Many experts believe that China's automobile industry ROI remains considerable, competition will become more and more fierce. There are also people who think China car should get out and seize the international market.

But in my view, since foreign producers are staring at China's huge market, we first should take advantage of its geographical, keep the domestic market, and then consider the international market, not the kind to others, abandoned its own field ". Of course, China has a clear comparative advantage of some of the vehicle or parts production while taking both domestic and international markets are also fine.

In the open market conditions, the Chinese automobile industry cannot obtain directly from the Government, the only way out is the protection of independent innovation, and constantly improve quality. Fortunately, in recent years, China's electric (600795) moving automobile started relatively early, rapidly, but unfortunately, most of the car battery core part is still rely on imports, subject to the foreign countries.

Japan has asked the Chinese rare earth export restrictions relaxed that should not be excessive reaction

Third China-Japan high-level economic dialogue held yesterday in Beijing, Chinese Vice Premier Wang Qishan and Japan Minister Katsuya Okada co-chaired the dialogue. Both sides around the economic recovery strategy, bilateral mutually beneficial win-win cooperation, global and regional cooperation, such as the three thematic in-depth exchange of views, and reached important consensus. Dialogue, the relevant parts of the two countries signed a cooperation in the areas concerned.

Weak foreign demand requires mutual

This dialogue, it was held at the world economic situation, on the occasion of subtle changes. Although all major economies has been removed from the bottom of the financial crisis, but in going out recovery still road thorns. US-EU economic weakness, the demand was weak and, in this context, Japan is facing economic development from export-oriented to rely on domestic demand-type transition, foreign trade and European markets from aiming to rely on the Asian region, particularly mutual needs to advance. In this broader context, Japanese officials need to sit together on the current situation in bilateral trade for punctuation, an exchange of views as to the positive development in the future.

Currently, Japan's economic recovery has encountered no small resistance. Yen soar to its export has caused great difficulties, and the stock market decline, deflation, and a series of chain reaction. But Japan domestic market saturation, short time expansion of domestic demand and not reality. Weigh again, Japan Government or the development of economy based on the expansion of Asian exports, especially the China market.

Today, China is also conducting industrial upgrading from the previous labour-intensive enterprise oriented to the technology, capital intensive transition. In the process, on foreign capital, advanced technology also has the necessary requirements.

In addition, in this conversation not long ago, the media called China GDP over Japan became second in the world. But this is just a small episode, because the quality, the GDP per capita GDP and economic structure, and so the actual indicators, the gap between the two countries is still very apparent.

Lifting of export expansion technology

As a manufacturing powerhouse, Japan in energy saving and environmental protection, green energy advantages, wind power, electric cars, hybrid cars, solar cell, technology is a global leader. In this conversation, the Chinese side wants Japan to relax in this area of technology export restrictions. "Japan hopes that the occupation of the industrial chain of high-end, high-tech exports in more conservative", Shanghai Jiao Tong University Japan Research Center director Wang least believes, but due to the expansion of exports to China, Japan has some beginning this policy loose. This year, "Sino-Japanese Tangshan (caofeidian) eco-industrial park, Tianjin, China-Japan cooperation in low-carbon economy demonstration zone" and other cooperation demonstration projects are in a smooth way. Opportunity fleeting, the US and Europe also coveted China great energy saving and environmental protection in the market, if Japan can not grasp the opportunity, would lose in China market opportunities.

In addition, the Chinese also hoped that the two countries will further strengthen the East Asian financial cooperation on 2012 complete South Korea free trade zone official industry-university joint research objectives, jointly promoting East Asia infrastructure interconnection projects. "Japan is a leading Asian cooperation, mutual benefit not only for oneself together, can help to push this regional trade flows facilitation", Japan-Korea Economic Development Association President Wang Tai Ping said.

In the dialogue process, may request the Chinese relaxation of rare earth export restrictions. To this end, the Minister of Commerce Chen Deming, indicated that the restrictions on rare earth industry mainly for reasons of environmental protection requirements, China rare earth production, mining and trade restrictions are implemented, this approach is consistent with WTO rules. As China's important strategic resource of rare-earth permanent is the sale, its rare development strategy is the pursuit of their legitimate rights and interests, the Japanese side should not be excessive reaction.

Is your opponent is partners

Future economic and trade relations between the landmarks? so-called bystander, France Figaro in an article entitled "Tokyo and Beijing: a win-win competition law in October article pointed out, first, mutual benefit partners, followed by competitors.

The reality is. On the one hand, Japan's investment in China increasing year by year, from January to July cumulative investment has reached 24 million. Now this trend even more apparent, the Yen's appreciation leads to difficulties, and to export the consumer market "of field production" you can avoid the risks. In addition, Wang Tai Ping is of the view that Japan's location has changed from the previous simple production base into the consumer market and production bases both, not only conducive to the expansion of Japan exports, also to China to introduce advanced technology, truly complementary to each other.

More good news is, in economic and trade relations between the two countries are gradually into benign track. China will launch 12 five-year plan, the development environment, industrial structure, the eight development objectives; whereas in the field of Japan developed in the next 10 years of economic growth strategies, related to environment and energy, the Asian economy, tourism and so on six strategic areas. The two countries are closely linked to the future strategy, the priority now is to make each other strategic butt, grasp new growth points ", said Wang less conventional, play their respective strengths, to achieve win-win cooperation.

Foreign trade as a whole to better structure adjustments still need to speed up the

According to the latest statistics, customs from January to April, China's imports and exports worth 8559.9 billion, an increase of 42.7 per cent. Exports 4360.5 billion, an increase of 29.2%; import 4199.4 billion, an increase of 60.1 per cent.

Press spokesman for the Ministry of Commerce said Yao Jian, 1 to 4-month foreign trade has the following characteristics are a cause for concern.

A significant decline in the surplus scale. From January to April, import growth higher than the export growth rate 30.9 percentage points. Since 2009, the single import growth rate has been higher than 12 consecutive months of export growth. Flush pull quantity price rises, imported quickly rebounded significantly reduced scale, the surplus in October 2009, continuous decline in 7-month surplus, 1 to April trade surplus 161.1 billion, down 78.6 per cent. Of these, processing trade and foreign investment enterprise is the major source of surplus. Processing trade surplus 845.7 billion in foreign investment enterprises achieve surpluses 215.6 million, namely the overall trade surplus scale 5.2 times and 1.3 times and general trade deficit exists 393 billion. This explains the formation of China's trade surplus with the globalization of international division of labour relations.

The second is to export growth in emerging markets than traditional market growth rate. Such as ASEAN, Russia, India, Australia and other emerging markets increased 45.6 per cent respectively, 44.9, 36.8, 32.6 per cent.

Yao Jian said, 1 to 4, a significant decline in the trade surplus is mainly twofold: first, import prices, particularly primary product prices; second domestic market demand, the domestic consumer demand for overseas products. Yao Jian told reporters, China's foreign trade in the January-April, the accumulated surplus of $ 161 billion, projected annual trade surplus in 2008, $ 2900, 2009 $ 190 billion, based on a substantial drop in China's international balance of payments situation will be improved, thus contributing to the implementation of macro-economic policies to create better conditions.

Insufficient foreign demand continues to highlight the

Department of Commerce recently published the report on the situation of foreign trade in China, while the world economy continued to recover, but recovery Foundation is not solid, China's foreign trade in foreign demand shortfalls still outstanding.

On the one hand, the warmer the international market demand, but not enough power. Statistics show that China's first four months on the European Union, United States, Japan exported 30.4 percent respectively, 19.6, 19.5%, exports to the United States, Japan is lower than the growth rate of the overall export growth rate of nearly 10 percentage points. This reflects as China's main export markets of the developed economies, economic recovery is relatively slow, will directly restricting exports rebound. On the other hand, trade protectionism exacerbated the negative impact.

In addition, the overall business environment improvement, cost increases, the pressure to increase. Our enterprise on the trade environment generally cautious. From long ago concluded 107 fair, while recovery of growth in turnover is, but still below the international financial crisis levels. Buyers on the market trend is still doubt, orders, enterprises worry about Exchange rate changes, factors such as rising costs, not afraid to take a long, single, single. According to the survey, within 3 months of short single account transaction 53 per cent of the total. Some analysts believe that this year export will render the "descending" trend. In this case, continue to maintain the policy of continuity and stability as the universal appeal of foreign trade enterprises.

Changes in the way of development is critical

Commerce Department official said, overall, China's foreign trade and development environment to continue to get better, but at the same time, it should also be noted that this year the foreign trade appears more substantial rebound, with the same period last year a lower base.

Euro depreciation caused trade panic foreign textile enterprises make themselves take steering US dollar orders

"We now only € received $ orders, orders will not be received. "2 June, Jiangsu Nanjing family gardens and other electrical goods export enterprises, Mr. LEE, Deputy Chief, due to the depreciation of the euro is very powerful, the enterprise now did not dare take the euro orders for" now found more than the US dollar, the euro does not rely on the spectrum, had to stare at US dollar. "Mr. Lee said that although they now most of the export orders are from Europe, but all require a dollar.

Euro depreciation caused panic in foreign trade

2 June, to press deadline, the EUR/USD 1: 8.3706, also continued to decline. Just a half-year, EUR/USD exchange rate had a free fall, compromise "10" mark, so broken "fengjuancanyun 9", now have a Yu Yong of riding, has launched a wave breaking "8". Recently, due to the influence of European debt crisis, the depreciation of the euro has already reached 15%, which caused a lot of domestic foreign trade enterprise of hysteria.

"We used to export a value of € 100 million, resulting in loss of products, which makes our firm a dollar. "Mr. Lee said, while the depreciation of the dollar was not stable, but found that the euro is more unstable. According to the present situation, since the European debt crisis, the European economic recovery will be more difficult, this may significantly affect trade in Europe in the second half of the year.

Shanghai, Mr. leather, as seen from the end of last year signed a few euros order, now really some pain in the neck. "This year's export earnings of the United States, also fill the deficit of the European context. ”

Appreciation of the renminbi is expected to exacerbate the

"Euro depreciation is also not the only factors of bad, and now, another crisis expected from RMB appreciation. "Mr. Lee said that at present the company exports more than last year, reached 7000 million, however the profit is in sharp decline," no more than last year. ”

"This two-day there is a steady stream of orders in the second half, however, it is estimated that there will be a more substantial decline. "Mr. Lee said, now the company exports appears to be" very popular ", does not seem to be affected by the financial crisis, but in fact, a substantial increase in orders did not bring profit. He said that the reason for this, on the one hand, the European customers in the first half of the year there was a strong expectation that the appreciation of the Renminbi, the order will be concentrated in the first half of the year; on the other hand, because of the substantial undercutting resulted in order to increase the profits of enterprises, instead of a strange phenomenon.

"The appreciation of the renminbi is a fatal blow to foreign trade. "Shanghai de Chairman: Gu Xin Yi, expressed the appreciation of the Renminbi overseas now on devaluation phenomenon is serious, if you do not maintain currency stability and profitability of enterprises will be very confused.

Or a drag on economic growth in China

At present, China's exports to the EU's main products include electrical and electronic products, textiles, clothing, shoes, etc, of which the export of electromechanical products accounted for about half of product sales, the depreciation of the euro, will cause some of these exports, the export of products within a short period of time to become more "expensive", significantly reducing the competitiveness of Chinese products.

"In fact, Chinese products in the EU's share is relatively high, makes these countries on Chinese products have a certain dependence, short term use other product mass substitution is not reality. "Business flow Productivity Center analyst song Liang said, a substantial devaluation against the euro does not have to be overly pessimistic.

Song Liang said, China is in a transition period, external pressure, helps to speed up the pace of domestic industry. The worst is that because EU economic downturn, unemployment rate reached a maximum of 12 years, even though the euro is not devalued, overall spending power also fallen, affected not only the Chinese enterprises.

Cannot be ignored is that the EU is China's major export market, China trade size of 16%. Affected by rising prices, consumption growth slowed, if long-term export situation cannot be reversed, China's economic growth may slow down.

Us endorses Mexico on Chinese denim starting anti-dumping investigations

Customs: the total value of imports and exports in July to a record high again

Yesterday the General Customs Administration published data show that China's export and import values in July 2623.1 million, an increase of 30.8%, of which exports 1455.2 billion, an increase of 38.1%; import 1167.9 billion, an increase of 22.7%. From the ring than, import and export more than 6 month ring growth of 3%, following a June after monthly export value and the total value of imports and exports to a record high again (6 month refresh July 2008 of history).

Although the new import and export, import and export growth rate continues to decline, data show, July exports rose by nearly 40%, imports rose by nearly 23%, respectively, compared with 6 month dropped four percentage points and 10 percentage points. The first is to the same period last year import a higher base scale, the second is affected by the impact of domestic macroeconomic adjustment, domestic investment demand further weakness in demand for imports. "For import slowdown, Hong Yuan securities macroeconomic analyst Chen Meng root this explanation. As for the decline in the growth rate for export, Xinda securities macroeconomic analyst Xu jiarong believes that the main international economic situation recovery effect of uncertainty, on the one hand, the PMI export orders index declined for three consecutive months, on the other hand, although the European debt short-term crisis basic past, but the implementation of fiscal austerity brought economic slowdown.

The second half of China's export growth will slow down, the company believes in gold, leading indicators and external economic display export situation descending, coupled with the gradual recovery in the second half of last year, exports of high base effect, is expected to decline markedly in the second half of exports to 10%, but the global economy at the end of the second approach, the risk of external demand slowdown's impact on the Chinese economy continues to be controlled.

In the export and import of innovative high-expected fall under implemented the month July trade surplus $ 287.38 million, much higher than 6 month 200.3 billion, following a 3 month appears monthly deficit after the fourth consecutive month, a new record year, an increase of 180.6%. CICC is of the view that the surplus data is significantly higher than market expectations, pushing high appreciation of the renminbi is expected, and RMB against the dollar "non-active appreciation (depreciation of the dollar against the euro, which led to the 6.5% passive RMB against the dollar 0.88%), the short term may will continue, it is expected that by the end of the appreciation of the Renminbi 3% by the end of the dollar or 6.62.

On the same day, the General Customs Administration also announced the first seven months, China's imports and exports worth $ 16170.5 billion, a growth 40.9%. Exports 8504.9 billion, an increase of 35.6%; import 7665.6 billion 47.2 percent; the trade surplus of $ 839.3, reduce 21.2%.

To domestic reforms respond to external trade conditions

Recently, the United States Department of Commerce Secretary Locke announced 14 proposals to strengthen the anti-dumping trade law. Of these, the following three proposals is extremely easy to trigger trade friction: United States importers in the initial tariff announced after delivery of the deposit, the Department of Commerce in calculating anti-dumping and countervailing duty, the Elimination of export taxes and labor costs included in the calculation of the tariffs of account, as well as the extension of the anti-dumping the list included foreign firms warning period.

Currently, the global private sector demand still failed to activate, and the Government austerity budget deficit the Government reduced demand, which means that countries of export-oriented policy for external demand will increase trade friction.

There is no doubt that the global and then inventory, domestic export tax rebate policy adjustments, and other factors, a high-growth Chinese exports, such as the July exports increased by 38% to $ 287 billion trade surplus. However, China's export growth of these factors are not sustainable, as China's main export market economy slowdown, export to adjust the risk inventory, plus Europe and now starts competing for external requirements "mercantilism" policy, China's external trade conditions may be poor.

Dealing with trade disputes should be avoided to not to reciprocate the counter, but through effective communication and negotiation, mutual benefit and win-win to eliminate current underlay to the many barriers to international trade, the promotion of free trade. In fact, on the grounds of security, and other developed countries to contain the technology-intensive goods in international trade, and some developing countries to protect domestic strategic industry, to a certain extent hindered trade freedom, thereby artificially lower global demand. Therefore, if the current mild trade friction can contribute to the rational and moderately lower trade barriers, will help to relieve the global economy at the end of the second exploration.

The United States Department of Commerce of 14 proposals will make China's merchandise exports United States market offers significant impact. The United States should be based on positive communication, appropriate relaxed trade barriers, the United States should be appropriate to relax the Chinese high-tech exports, promote dialogue and trade. The Chinese side you should consider appropriate relax some capital-intensive industries of import controls and moderate lowering import tariffs, to promote the development of related industries. Current moderate decrease in response to important areas, key industry protection threshold, contributed both to low-cost sharing international technology spillovers and help to mitigate trade friction. Deserves to be sure, the current Chinese Government is considering developing import promotion policies, fully embodies the China trade issues, cooperative attitude.

At the same time, the current United States Department of Commerce in calculating anti-dumping and countervailing duty, the Elimination of export taxes and labor costs included in the calculation of the tariffs of account, this will affect the competitiveness of China's merchandise exports; and once China through reduced export rebate stimulate export, United States-paid based on the export of Chinese products tax measure correction. Given that China has in 2009 VAT in transition, the Chinese Government the right to cancel the export tax rebate policy, consideration should be given to allow enterprise-production investment purchase tax on value added tax-deductible, before appropriate to relieve the pressure of exporting enterprises, prevent the outflow of tax rebates.

In addition, in order to radically reduce China trade conditions facing the grim situation, having gradually rectify excessive reliance on investment and export growth pattern, that is, the perfection of corporate income tax credit standards, and other means to reduce the tax burden, effective mechanisms to promote labour collective agreements, reform of tax and revenue assignment and allocation system, promote an increased level of income, improving the domestic market of effective demand. At the same time, speeding up the monopoly of the market-oriented reform, government economic management function for domestic reform, reduce transaction costs, mitigate or even eliminate hidden income engulf, promote the development of the domestic market.

Waimei: "unprecedented" in the European Union attaches great importance to its relations with China

Since August 29, the EU foreign and security policy of the High Representative and the European Commission Vice President Ashton began her trip to China. Today she is Council Chair in Europe with Dai bingguo strategic dialogue, this was in April this year, the EU decided to enhance its dialogue with the level of the first Central European high-level strategic dialogue.

Smart select venue

In General, such high-end dialogue often selected in Beijing, Shanghai and other major cities, but this time central strategic dialogue has moved to the stage, Guiyang City, Guizhou. This is in no way arbitrary and, behind has different considerations in Europe. The current "China responsibility theory" in Europe's political and business circles of fans, the dialogue on the underdevelopment of Guizhou, allows the EU officials feel the full range of China in the field, "seeing is believing, this makes it easier for Europe to better understand why China is developing countries", former Chinese Ambassador to the EU Yuanhong told reporters. Of course the EU also has its own calculations. Ashton in China before the interview, she came to see accounts for two thirds of the Chinese population in rural areas. In fact, she spoke or innocuous, the huge Chinese rural market perhaps more attractive to the EU delegation to the eye.

In the end the Guiyang-EU strategic dialogue, Ashton will fly to Beijing and met with the Premier and Minister of Foreign Affairs Yang Jiechi, plan 4 September back to Europe. In a country visits a week, and for the EU leaders. Some Western media comments, this unusual Act describes two points: firstly, the EU attaches to "unprecedented" on relations with China and, secondly, the EU and China have a lot to say.

To warm up the two Summit

Indeed, the EU in many issues to the position with the China coordination. This conversation's top priority is to Central Europe in the second half of this year's two Summit to "warm up".

The first was held in early October EU leadership summit. During the Summit, the EU economy "troika", i.e. the European Commission-economic and Monetary Affairs Committee, the European Central Bank, as well as the President of the euro group, China's Central Bank, Ministry of finance, and other appropriate officials. Ashton had previously served as EU Trade Commissioner, advises EU economic and trade, visit can test for the Summit.

The second field is November 11 at the G20 Summit in Korea. "In global governance, the EU is necessary prior ventilation", Shanghai Institute of international studies and Director of the Center for European studies, leaf River considered that the International Monetary Fund and World Bank reforms, global financial supervision, the international investment environment, global climate change and other topics concerning the vital interests of Europe, I believe that this dialogue will be involved in the process.

In addition, the EU also has some new and old problems requires an exchange of views. There are media reports, under pressure from sovereign debt crises, the EU has phased "exit" mechanism. Ashton visit hope to persuade China to meet with their "into the same retreat". Of course, the EU would like to expand exports to China, China urged to relax the high technology export, lifting of the ban on arms sales to China, it is difficult to avoid these old topic, but the resolution up to 1-.

EU relations warming,

Over time, EU relations exist two levels of heat and cold are not. China-EU relations between individual States, and well as the overall EU there togeth.

But this situation is gradually changing. On the one hand, the economic and trade cooperation is an important part of the EU, China and the EU are the second largest and second largest trading partner. Especially in the wake of the world financial crisis, China's importance to the EU economy become more obvious. In addition, according to the last year through the Lisbon Treaty, the EU set up the equivalent of the "EU President" and "EU Foreign Minister". Ashton the "Foreign Minister" whether the power or the master of human resources than before has been greatly enhanced, pragmatic EU leaders will follow the trend of the times, push forward the development of EU-China relations.

For future relations between China and the EU, more optimistic about Yuanhong performance, close contacts in the European leaders are active signal. Of course ye Jiang also remind that the EU can fair-weather, when the economic situation better, take it with rich? this is going to challenge the wisdom of the EU leaders.

IMF or will the members share in China increased to 6% and Japan fair

September 19, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) or will the members share in China from the current 3.9% increase to 6%, and Japan.

In addition to enhancing emerging countries such as China's share, the IMF also will be lowered from some European countries share. The above message that says this is because of the IMF in recent years strengthened the economic strength of emerging countries, to enable quotas can better reflect the economic reality and make adjustments.

Industrial bank capital Centre Dr Jiang Shu at national business news reporter said the IMF members to increase the share of China, China is to be expected of the subprime mortgage crisis's performance, and overall economic scale, has been able to support China's international organizations in the greater voting rights and take on more responsibility.

Jiang Shu pointed out that the IMF in the past mainly plays an adjustment of the international balance of functions, at present, apart from being an international economic information publishing platform, but also take up to the financial stability of the Member States to provide assistance functions. In a recent Greece sovereign debt crises, the IMF had assistance in Greece $ 40 billion.

Members share in China increased at the same time, the differences between Europe and the United States has continued. Before the reform, the EU around IMF and the United States of both. Now the United States believes that the EU countries in the IMF Executive Board has too many seats, after the EU officials on the United States in IMF veto challenge. Belgium caretaker Cabinet, Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Steven · Van NAKEL you openly questioned the United States in the IMF's veto. He said: "the United States did in the IMF veto is normal?" at present, the IMF's major policy decisions must obtain 187 member countries is at least 85 per cent of the vote to pass, and the United States have the right to vote 16.74%, meaning that the United States in any one of the major decisions on actual veto.

IMF members share is based on GDP, economic viability, and the international reserves to distribution. The current share of the European countries, founding member of Germany, France and the United Kingdom's share respectively ranked third, fourth and fifth position, second only to the United States and Japan. In contrast, China and other emerging economies in the world economy has not been fully reflected. IMF quota determines the national vote, share in the top five countries have the right to appoint the Executive Director. As the world's second largest economy, China's share in the IMF 3.65% own a Directors seats; and Japan has 6.13% share and a Directors seats. Sources said that China's quota or will increase to 6% to 7%, balanced or will exceed Japan.

The anti-counterfeiting trade agreement will be published, Chinese enterprises are on the verge of risk

Recently, many countries signed the anti-counterfeiting trade agreement (ACTA) wins the international trade in counterfeit and pirated goods, regulation range including of counterfeit goods, counterfeit drugs, as well as Internet copyright infringement case. The experts believe that this is dominated by the developed countries the main international conventions on intellectual property for developing countries for the representatives of China, China export processing enterprises or to form a barrier to trade, required close attention.

Lasted more than two years of secret "-ing", States has finally on the anti-counterfeiting trade agreement (ACTA) text. According to EU officials revealed that the final agreement content within weeks official release overseas. The European Commission said that ACTA against States should how to implement the intellectual property related laws of other countries to develop standards, will be globally more effective in combating piracy. Interviewees related experts believe that this is dominated by the developed countries the main international conventions on intellectual property for developing countries for the representatives of China, China export processing enterprises or the formation of trade barriers, and therefore requires the enterprise to give full attention to the ACTA and related national intellectual property law protection.

Secret weapons development

It is reported that the first proposed the idea of this agreement originated from the United States and Japan in 2006 of a negotiation, since then, Canada, EU, Australia and other countries in the accession negotiations into the right track. Reports indicate that negotiations in early October of this year reached agreement on the principles of the agreement, but of which does not appear in more detail. In fact, the agreement text content and the negotiation process has been carried out in secret, is widely blamed for international public opinion on the sly in developed countries legislation ".

The intellectual property Institute of Peking University, Ph.d., former Director of the Centre for intellectual property development, State intellectual property office assistants Wei yan Liang that ACTA secrecy status is to prevent developing countries raised objections against participation agreement drafting and discussion of population differentiation in developed countries. From 2010, published draft, ACTA extensive, involving intellectual property protection of civil, administrative, criminal, border and digital environment law enforcement and other measures and means of protection, and to a certain extent, beyond the TRIPS agreement to existing intellectual property rights TRIPS and so on, in particular the international rules on intellectual property protection in the digital environment has made a number of new provisions, further underlines the intellectual property international development strong protection trend.

ACTA power. According to the disclosure of details waimei, ACTA more specific than the TRIPS, tougher, more operational. ACTA will give customs on immigration officers carry MP3, portable and mobile inspection rights. The DVD and other digital products stored audio and video products, whether legitimate or not, must be examined. At the same time, when officials discovered any lawless behavior when pirates out punishment, confiscation and destruction of copying equipment. People will also be given to law enforcement, public security, without the presence of the judge, can conduct a preliminary examination of the suspect. "This agreement will certainly not against copyright piracy, are also covered the counterfeiting and piracy, and other intellectual property infringement. "Wei yan Liang said. Developed strategy to

On this agreement, Wen international review column writer David Zheng to unceremoniously wrote that the "anti-piracy" against still non-developed countries. You can imagine, once such an agreement a reality, will undoubtedly be developed against developing countries and a "weapon". Beijing fangda lawyers Wu Lin told reporters that the copyright, trademark, patent, etc. are available through a variety of conventions and protocols for protection.

China international economic law: Dr. Wu Chang-Hai, based on shared interests and protection of intellectual property developed at the instigation of each other, using WTO and other multilateral fora would be consistent with the position of its interests are reflected in the number of international rules. "Such as TRIPS, for the protection of industrial property, such as essentially reflects the interests of developed countries, developing countries need to become a victim of ' objectively '. "Wu Chang-Hai with respect. However, Wei yan Leung stresses, such as ACTA mainly by developed countries to participate in and management, and essential services to the interests of developed countries, and even members of the "all" as developed by the international conventions on intellectual property, there is no precedent in history.

Chinese enterprises are on the verge of risk

Lenovo patent Management Manager Chenyuan Green said that intellectual property can be an asset or a weapon. At present, ACTA will produce no small enterprises in China. Wei yan Liang said, ACTA instigated the greatest goal is to make the 2008 global financial crisis since the buck to the "fake commodities to normal international trade of China", more severe civil, criminal, administrative measures one uniform Chinese enterprises to large-scale exit international market.

Wu Lin is pointed out that at present, China is not a ACTA participating countries, nor will soon join the Protocol, its impact is on and the agreement Member States trade activities of Chinese enterprises. ACTA once in force, these enterprises will face more tough and strict oversight and management of the intellectual property system, especially in the OEM business export behavior may face barriers. To this end, she offered suggestions, Chinese enterprises should collect relevant information, establish intellectual property early warning mechanisms. In particular, on the one hand, specification and not pirated itself, not phishing; on the other hand the need to strengthen the protection of intellectual property rights of consciousness, not infringement.

Wei yan Liang further said that the Chinese enterprises to Europe, America and Japan and other developed areas of exports will face unprecedented situation. To avoid risk, the Chinese exporters should urge the foreign customers ahead of the signing of non-infringement of third party intellectual property rights, and intellectual property infringement of the guarantee of immunity guarantees, this is the basic self protection measures.

In addition, Wu Chang-Hai, exporters should change the original principal amount by increasing exports to the development of export trade mode, depending on the technology into

Step, improve product quality and the development of science and technology content. "Only the development as soon as possible with independent intellectual property rights to the leading industry, technology and products, to break through the barriers to foreign intellectual property. "

Keep carbon emission reduction effects of globalization, the globalization of trade

Developed countries will take countermeasures may be mainly has three aspects: first, through technical and financial assistance to improve the overall efficiency of the developing countries, reducing emissions. Second, through carbon trading, supporting developing countries in the emission reduction. Third, the carbon tax, forcing developing countries to reduce emissions. The first two practices favourable to developing countries basically. And the third on the economic growth of developing countries will have a negative impact.

Carbon tax is the one aspect of environmental taxes, environmental taxes is to the domestic tax form, generally take the principle of origin or the destination principle. When a State implementation of the principle of origin and destination to another State, the same principles as burden of goods of the exporting country of taxation of environmental taxes and the burden on the environment in importing countries, there is double taxation issues.

As export commodities to burden the environment tax of both countries, which in the importing country's domestic market would not be production with importing countries to compete for the same product, is not conducive to international trade fair competition principles. Of course, the need to avoid the other extreme, countries have their own tax sovereignty and give up on a commodity tax sovereignty, can also cause importing and exporting countries the two sides of the dual exemption, so that environmental taxes to lose their effectiveness, cannot achieve the internalization of environmental costs, so that the internationalization of the market failure. Therefore, the same externality double taxation should be avoided, in General, environmental damage should receive priority right to tax and tax on excessive given the refund. For example, if the environmental problems arising from consumption, should give priority to the taxation of the importing country.

For developing countries, the reduction of costs and opportunities coexist. In the international community should actively participate in international cooperation and emission reduction, is looking for a home game for the minimum cost reduction. Development of new energy sources is a must go, should the minimum cost. New energy industry chain is generally divided into three areas: research and development, equipment manufacturing and use. Currently, the so-called overcapacity is in fact a device manufacturing surplus is the surplus industrial chain node. Situation is that too many input device manufacturing, research and development and the use of less input. Minimum cost requirements under resources and markets on the basis of a reasonable layout, timely follow up on the appropriate ancillary and policies to promote healthy and rapid development of industry. Implementation of the development of the "orderly", in a balanced approach in the development of the industrial chain of nodes development, avoiding the waste of money and resources, such as wind power "idling state."

And for developing public speaking, you must be prepared to deal with the low-carbon and energy prices. Low-carbon transformation, such as clean energy development, in addition to its own generation cost is relatively high, for the corresponding accessory power and costs are high (such as a grid of wind and solar energy), large scale clean energy development will bring electricity to substantially increase their costs, current policies and subsidies are basically aimed at generating costs, the cost of power facilities are not involved. Therefore, the development of clean energy to address the cost issues is the key.
