"Such a large trade surplus has aroused great concerns from both 皇冠体育app and its trade partners, in particular those having a deficit with 皇冠体育app," said Lu Jinyong, a foreign trade scholar with the University of International Business and Economics.

A large surplus would intensify conflicts between 皇冠体育app and its trade partners, such as the United States and the European Union, leading to increased pressure on the Chinese Government to revaluate its currency, Lu said.

Sounding a note of caution, Lu said more time was needed for the situation to become clear. "皇冠体育app's trade situation is also influenced by some 'provisional elements', like the textile disputes," Lu said.

皇冠体育app has been struggling since April to contain a trade dispute over textiles with its major trade partners. Fearing the setting of quotas, Chinese textile exporters have been striving to export as much as possible before controls are introduced.

The government has adopted a series of measures including the appreciation of the reminbi, to cut the climbing trade surplus, Lu added.
