"Sowing" to promote world economic recovery

The 2020 China International Trade in services Fair (cifis) closed in Beijing on the 9th. As the first major international economic and trade event held by China offline since the outbreak of the new crown epidemic, the service trade fair highlights the spirit of openness and cooperation and injects confidence and momentum into the world economic recovery.



Affected by the continuous spread of the epidemic, the global economy is sluggish. How to return to the growth track as soon as possible is a common test facing all countries. Throughout the history of the development of human society, the world economy prospers when it is open and declines when it is closed. Under the influence of the epidemic situation, the recovery of the world economy needs to be open rather than closed. As the first major economy to recover growth since the outbreak of the epidemic, China's hosting of this trade fair not only reflects the great strategic achievements in the fight against the new epidemic, but also shows the determination and sincerity of unswervingly expanding opening up to the world.



At the service trade fair, China announced a series of new measures to expand opening-up, from establishing and improving the management system of negative list of cross-border service trade, to promoting the construction of pilot open platform for innovative development of service trade, from continuing to relax market access of service industry to actively expanding the import of high-quality services, all of which convey a clear signal of China's pursuit of a higher level of opening to the outside world. According to Gao Le, President of BMW Group in Greater China, these measures "reflect China's clear willingness to further open up".



The FTC will build a platform and bridge for cooperation with the world. Nearly 200 top 500 enterprises from 148 countries and regions participated in the fair. According to preliminary statistics, the report card of the service trade association is brilliant. There are 97 authoritative published achievements, 99 first innovation achievements, and 240 agreements and agreements signed Many people believe that the FTC has activated the momentum of global cooperation. Guo Jie, chief professor of finance at Durham University, believes that the successful holding of the fair will help enterprises strengthen international exchanges, expand new markets, and seek and create new opportunities in the changing situation.



The FTC is a "seeder" to promote the recovery of the world economy. Service trade is of great significance to the future development of global economy and trade. According to the forecast of WTO, the global trade in services will maintain a rapid growth rate in the future and become a new driving force for Global trade and economic growth. Alvaro Echeveria, vice president of the Asia Pacific chamber of Commerce in Chile, believes that the successful hosting of the fair will play a very positive role in the recovery of the world economy. Hu Yishan, chief consultant of the Malaysia Pacific Research Center, believes that the service trade association will help countries to carry out more in-depth exchanges on cooperation in the field of services.



The fair conveys the concept of openness, inclusiveness, unity and cooperation held by China. China's one belt, one road project has been steadily advancing in the past year. The Sino ASEAN trade and investment cooperation has maintained strong growth. Facts have proved that this concept is a good way to promote the recovery of the world economy and a magic drug to achieve common development. It always reminds people: under the background of economic globalization, the economies of all countries depend on each other, and the interests of different countries blend unprecedentedly. only by abandoning prejudice and seeking cooperation can we achieve win-win results.
