In light industry, textile, etc as a representative of labor intensive industry was the main force of China's foreign trade export. And from the 112th Canton fair disclosed on a variety of signs that the industry ZhongDiDuan capacity are facing more and more outstanding orders fell and productivity offshoring challenge. Experts point out that, in the old industry gradually fade out at the same time, new industry, new products and new capacity can instead, will be the country's industry pattern, the change of the new test.

Low-end manufacturing productivity gradually outflow

"Vietnamese workers 600 dollars a month, but our domestic workers wages to take the cost of 20% ~ 30%. Guangdong male British group co., LTD. The manager Mr Roh to reporter calculate a bill. In addition to wages, southeast Asia countries land costs are relatively low.

Culture is also close to the factory to be able smoothly transferred to southeast Asia one of the most important reasons. Mr Roh said: "there are a lot of chaozhou ceramic factory transferred to Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, Cambodia, besides cost lower outside, chaozhou people for hundreds of years are in southeast Asia, with business in Thailand teochiew basically can communication. Some Taiwanese businessmen also began to investment to southeast Asia."

China arts and crafts import and export chamber of commerce investigation shows that, China light industry has appeared to the transfer of momentum, especially some low-end manufacturing links to external transfer speed is faster. "In 2008, light industries maintain the high speed growth, but some industry has begun to slow growth in 2009. There is substantially reduced. China arts and crafts import and export chamber of commerce, vice chairman of LiWenFeng said.

Guangdong foreign trade department survey data show that since this year by the guangdong transferred to China's overseas investment project has 41, which moved to Malaysia and Vietnam project reached 15 and 13, they to textile clothing and shoes and hats, etc give priority to. Nike and other international big companies also appeared in recent years will be part of the OEM business transfer from China to southeast Asia practice. Our country some enterprise also active will be part of the capacity to external transfer, to keep international competitiveness.

"World factory" advantage is still in

"At present our country population dividen window tend to be closed, labor employment difficult and expensive intensifying, and in this we advantage is slowly away." South China normal university economic management academy in professor deng jun said, at the same time, the RMB exchange rate, target market has become an important factor of the outward transplant of factory choice.

In the concerned expert opinion, China is lost low-end manufacturing capacity indeed will produce a certain impact. The traditional manufacturing industry is our traditional advantages, is also to keep foreign trade growth, stable employment also have a role to play. "And electronic industries, shoes and hats, clothing compared, the furniture and so on labor intensive industry product characteristics decided to these industries to ocean transportation, very tall to the requirement of is unlikely to move inland reduce cost pressure, these industry in the global coastal area gradient transfer, is the international industrial adjustment mature path." Deng said to king.

Yantian ports from the information to confirm it. According to relevant controller introduces, since the first half of this year, whose volume decline index is one of dongguan, shenzhen furniture exports decline significantly, the ocean shipping needs natural is also on the decline, "these production many to southeast Asia transfer".

But the personage inside course of study thinks, our country labor-intensive industries in high-end capacity has remained stable, even if low capacity outflow will not too fast, this is mainly because China has maintained "the workshop of the world" advantage. "Factories in southeast Asia, a large defect is the related industrial chain. You have to do ceramic soil, no supporting refining factory, dig out is useless." Guangdong four-way group deputy chairman tsai town pass said, in addition, the quality of workers is also a large block. Although southeast Asia labor costs low, but workers liquidity big, weekly liquidation wage practice also let enterprise's liquidity affected, to the enterprise management ability is also a big test.

CAI town in general opinion, China no matter in the investment environment, or in production cost-effective products, and the products the diversity, still keep the advantage.

Lost the back from where?

Along with the low-end manufacturing capacity continuous outflow, our country foreign trade pattern is from quantity to pull prices pull quietly transformation. "From this year's foreign trade figures, light industry products on price growth was mainly pull. 1 ~ 8 month jewelry growth by 70%, but the average unit price rose 60%. 1 ~ 9 months furniture rose 30%, of which 21.5% in the price of." LiWenFeng said.

LiWenFeng think, our country foreign trade need to face up to the fact is: the past comparative advantage is disappear, and the new advantage remains to be cultivation. From the price pull mode to see, although there are also some business good enterprise through the development of new products for bargaining rising advantages, but most still rely on cost to promote.

So, in low cost advantage habbit is after, China manufacturing lost capacity should be back from where?

The expert thinks, made in China to develop new foreign trade growth. "Of the transformation and upgrade of significance lies in the industrial chain to high-end propulsion, make our country industry department to an advanced level in the world." Deng in jun said, enterprise individual coping measures is committed to improving self-directed innovation and cultivate the independent brand, alternative low productivity and realize the upgrading of product class, which will eventually drive the entire industry form mature technical ability and the complete development system. "In the new economic environment digging a new hot spot is also very important." LiWenFeng said, from light industry products to see, even in the face of the global economy down, but the basic demand and new consumption hotspot is still in. For example, people in the economic bad more willing to beautify the courtyard, usually on bamboo products and outdoor products demand is higher. Many Chinese enterprises in this field to concentrate one's efforts, it has become the export of light industrial products this year new luminescent spot.
