BEIJING - 皇冠体育app is expected to be the world's largest exporter of machinery and electronic products in 2010, with export value of the goods up 30 percent year-on-year to $940 billion, said an industrial head Thursday.
皇冠体育app exported $842.74 billion worth of machinery and electronic products in the first 11 months, up 32.7 percent from a year earlier, Zhang Yujing, director of the 皇冠体育app Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Machinery and Electronic Products (CCCME) told a press conference.
Despite the large export volume and comparative advantages, such as lower labor costs, the nation's machinery and electronic manufacturing industries were lacking in terms of independent innovation capacity and overseas marketing, and faced trade friction challenges, said Vice Commerce Minister Jiang Yaoping.
The country's foreign trade hit a historic high in November, as exports rose 34.9 percent year-on-year to $153.33 billion and imports jumped 37.7 percent to $130.43 billion.
