This year&#8217;s expo is scheduled from Friday to next Wednesday in <span class=\"xn-location\">Shanghai<\/span>, east <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p><b>20th anniversary of <span class=\"xn-location\">China&#8217;s<\/span> WTO accession<\/b><\/p>\n<p>This year marks the 20th anniversary of <span class=\"xn-location\">China&#8217;s<\/span> accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO). Xi reviewed the country&#8217;s progress in deepening reform and expanding openness during the past two decades. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> has fully delivered on its accession commitments,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Its overall tariff rate has been cut from 15.3 percent to 7.4 percent, lower than the 9.8 percent accession commitment.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-location\">China&#8217;s<\/span> central government has reviewed and revised over 2,300 laws and regulations, and local governments have reviewed and revised 190,000, he added.<\/p>\n<p>To facilitate the global fight against COVID-19, <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> has provided about 350 billion masks and over 1.6 billion doses of vaccines to the international community, he noted. <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> has grown from the world&#8217;s sixth-largest economy to the second largest over the past two decades; meanwhile, its trade in goods has grown from the sixth to the largest in the world, and trade in services from the 11th to the second, according to Xi.&nbsp; <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The past 20 years have witnessed a <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> deepening reform and pursuing all-round opening-up, a <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> seizing opportunities and rising to challenges, and a <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> stepping up to its responsibilities and benefiting the whole world,&#8221; he said, describing opening as the &#8220;hallmark of contemporary <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span>.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b><span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> to &#8216;lay more emphasis on expanding import&#8217;<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The CIIE is an important platform to promote global free trade and international cooperation. From 2018 to 2020, the intended turnover of the previous three expos reached about <span class=\"xn-money\">$201.6 billion<\/span>. The 4th CIIE is expected to attract nearly 3,000 businesses from 127 countries and regions. <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> has been the world&#8217;s second-largest importer for 11 consecutive years, according to the Ministry of Commerce. And Xi said the country will make more efforts to boost import. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> will open more demonstration zones for creative promotion of import trade, optimize the catalog of retail imports via cross-border e-commerce, encourage the on-site processing of imported goods from trading between border residents, and increase imports from neighboring countries,&#8221; he announced. <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-location\">China&#8217;s<\/span> total imports and exports expanded 22.7 percent year on year to <span class=\"xn-money\">28.33 trillion yuan<\/span> (about <span class=\"xn-money\">$4.38 trillion<\/span>) in the first three quarters of 2021, data from the General Administration of Customs showed. Both exports and imports continued double-digit growth in the first nine months of the year, surging 22.7 percent and 22.6 percent from a year earlier, respectively. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Going forward, <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> will lay more emphasis on expanding import, and pursue balanced development of trade,&#8221; Xi said.<\/p>\n<p>The country will firmly safeguard true multilateralism, share market opportunities with the rest of the world, promote high-standard opening-up, and uphold the common interests of the world, he stressed. <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> will shorten the negative list for foreign investment, and revise and enlarge the encouraged industry catalog to guide more foreign investment toward sectors such as advanced manufacturing, modern services, high and new technology, energy conservation and environmental protection, he said. <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> will &#8220;work actively for joining the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP),&#8221; he said. The country has officially applied to join the CPTPP, a free trade agreement between 11 countries, including <span class=\"xn-location\">Australia<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Canada<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">New Zealand<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Singapore<\/span> and <span class=\"xn-location\">Vietnam<\/span>. <\/p>\n<p>Xi added that <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> will promote high-quality Belt and Road cooperation to bring more benefits to countries taking part in the initiative. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> stands ready to work with all countries to build an open world economy so that the spring breeze of openness will bring warmth to all parts of the world,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/news.cgtn.com\/news\/2021-11-04\/Xi-Jinping-addresses-opening-ceremony-of-CIIE-14V5bYl3lny\/index.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/news.cgtn.com\/news\/2021-11-04\/Xi-Jinping-addresses-opening-ceremony-of-CIIE-14V5bYl3lny\/index.html<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BEIJING, Nov. 5, 2021 \/PRNewswire\/ &#8212; China on Thursday reaffirmed its commitment to opening wider and sharing development opportunities with the world.
