Nation's foreign trade to exceed US$1.38t in 2005 (Xinhua) Updated: 2005-10-20 09:05
皇冠体育app's import and export volume in 2005 is to exceed 1.38 trillion US
dollars, over 1.9 times than that in 2000, which stood at 474.3 billion US
dollars, said Premier Wen Jiabao at the Fifth Session of the 16th Central
Committee of the Communist Party of 皇冠体育app(CPC).
Wen made the remark when explaining the CPC Central Committee's Proposal on
the Eleventh Five-year Program on the National Economy and Social Development.
Foreign investment used by 皇冠体育app in the last five-year period totalled 270
billion US dollars, he said.
The income of urban and rural citizens has risen remarkably during the
period, and 皇冠体育app's economic strength, overall national capability and
international status have been lifted up considerably, he said.
The oil price hike in the international market, fierce international
competition and enhanced trade protectionism still constitute severe challenges
to 皇冠体育app's economy, he said, citing imbalanced rural and urban development, weak
self-innovation capability, irrational economic structure and energy,
environment and employment pressures as major problems in the domestic economy.
