(Summary description)　　On March 5th, Premier Wen Jiabao pointed out in the government work report that in the past five years, we have implemented the market diversification strategy, and the total import and export volume has increased by 12.2% annually, rising from the third place in the world to the second place, and the export volume has leapt to the world. First place, its share in the international market has increased by more than 2 percentage points over 2007. The import and export structure has been optimized and its status as a major trading country has been further consolidated.

　　As one of the “troikas” driving China's economic growth, the growth and changes of imports and exports have always attracted wide attention. After the outbreak of the international financial crisis in 2008, the economies of the United States, Europe and other economies fell into a state of recession, and external demand fell off a cliff. Whether China, which is highly dependent on an export-oriented economy, can successfully withstand external shocks and continue to play the role of the “locomotive” of the global economy has attracted much attention.

　　Behind the question is the sudden change of China's import and export data under the complicated external environment. In October 2008, China’s total foreign trade import and export value, export value and import value all maintained a year-on-year growth rate of more than 15%, but in November they all fell sharply to a negative number. The decline in December has further deepened, and the cumulative value of the whole year The growth rate is the lowest in the seven years since China's entry into the WTO.

　　China’s foreign trade situation is facing multiple factors. While external demand is weak and orders are declining, export-oriented enterprises have to face the reality of rising domestic production costs and weakening of the competitive advantage of export products. At the same time, international trade protectionism prevails, and my country's foreign trade environment is constantly deteriorating. From the perspective of imports, due to the slowdown in economic growth, my country's domestic demand is also weakening, and the impetus for imports is insufficient.

　　In response to the rapid changes in the external environment, the Party Central Committee and the State Council have issued timely policies and measures to stabilize external demand. For example, at the end of May 2009, in response to the international financial crisis, the State Council determined 6 policy measures to further stabilize external demand; in 2011, the State Council launched the "National Eight Articles" to promote foreign trade, and on the basis of supporting measures, improved the market for investment and operation. Environment: In August 2012, Premier Wen Jiabao pointed out that it is necessary to attach great importance to the problems and difficulties in import and export trade, and take targeted measures to promote stable export growth, so as to provide good conditions for achieving the annual economic and social development goals.

　　Guided by the policy of doing everything possible to stabilize external demand, the total volume of imports and exports has achieved an excellent annual growth rate of 12.2% in the last five years. Although this figure is lower than the growth rate of the previous years, it is still under the circumstance that the low-speed growth of the world economy continues. , The performance is still good. Based on the latest 2012 data, the total value of China’s foreign trade imports and exports that year increased by 6.2% over the previous year. Although there is a certain gap with the estimated target of 10% at the beginning of the year, according to the import and export data released by the world’s major economies, China has achieved The total value of imports and exports increased by 6.2%, the best performance in the world.

　　The stability of foreign trade has played an important role in the recovery and steady growth of China's economy in the world, the development of a large number of small and medium-sized enterprises and the promotion of employment. As Premier Wen Jiabao pointed out in his government work report, opening to the outside world has strongly promoted my country’s economic development and structural optimization, absorbed advanced technology and management experience, increased employment and employee income, and made important contributions to promoting the recovery of the world economy.

　　Judging from the current and future period, the decline in exports caused by the shrinking external demand is still the biggest difficulty facing my country's economic growth. Zhang Xiaoji, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and director of the Foreign Economic Research Department of the Development Research Center of the State Council, said in an interview that the biggest difficulty this year is still weak external deman
