What are the advantages and disadvantages of China's export trade?

Advantages: intensive labor resources, mainly primary products, low cost, easy to broaden the international market, small profits but quick turnover. The export products are rich in levels and meet the tastes of people all over the world.

Disadvantages: low core competitiveness, low added value, unreasonable export structure and few high-tech products.

Textiles have always been the main export commodities of China. Textiles are labor-intensive products. The reason why China has advantages in labor-intensive products lies in its large population and low labor cost. The biggest component of textile cost is labor cost, so the advantage of China's labor-intensive products in international trade lies in the low price of our products.

First, the proportion of traditional advantageous industries in China encountering trade friction will show a downward trend. Although the future trade frictions between China and developed countries will still dominate in the fields of color TV, clothing, shoes and hats, in the long run, the proportion will show a downward trend.

Second, emerging advantageous industries, such as steel, automobiles, communication equipment and chemical products, will become new hot spots of trade friction between China and developed countries. It is easier for developed countries to take trade protection measures against trade disputes involving these industries in order to maintain their dominant position in the world economy. For example, from 1 to1in 2007, 1 1 countries launched trade protection investigations on all kinds of steel products exported by China, involving the amount of 1 1 billion dollars, accounting for the foreign countries that China encountered in that year.

Third, new forms of trade frictions such as countervailing will continue to increase. By the end of September, 2007, China * * * had been subjected to anti-dumping and countervailing investigations 10 and four anti-dumping and countervailing investigations, affecting the number of employed people120,000, and the export volume was about US$ 6,543.80 billion. In the past few years, China ranked first in countervailing cases in 2004 and 2006. It is expected that countervailing cases will remain the focus in the next two years.

Fourthly, the possibility that a trade dispute involving China will occur in a third country will increase.

On the one hand, in the field of traditional advantages, China may face challenges from other emerging developing countries, mainly manufacturing industries, thus triggering trade frictions;

On the other hand, in terms of China's emerging advantages, China will compete with developed countries in the markets of developing countries.

Fifth, the trade friction between China and some developing countries may intensify. Some Eastern European countries, such as the Czech Republic, Turkey, Ukraine, and Latin American countries, such as Mexico and Brazil, are all developing countries, and their economic structures are mainly based on manufacturing, so they lack complementarity with China in economic structure, and domestic emerging industries and pillar industries are vulnerable to the impact of China products.

Sixth, in industries where China is relatively inferior, China-related enterprises will also adopt more international trade rules to protect their own interests. In the international division of labor, each country has its own relatively inferior industries. With the gradual familiarity of China enterprises with international practices and the economic development of China, China enterprises, especially those in relatively inferior industries, will adopt more international trade rules to protect their own development.
