Chinas exports rebounded vigorously in May，highlighting the nation s resilience in foreign trade，and the sector is expected to expand steadily in the months ahead given the effect of supportive policy measures that have been put in place to bolster the economy，industry experts and analysts said on June 10.

Stable growth in foreign trade will help shore up the overall economic outlook and market confidence，making the country more attractive to foreign investors，they said.

The nation's exports in May beat expectations by jumping 15.3 percent year- on- year to 1.98 trillion yuan （$300 billion），while imports rose 2.8 percent to 1.47 trillion yuan，according to customs data released on June 9.

The total value of China's imports and exports in May reached 3.45 trillion yuan，up 9.6 percent year-on-year，lifting the trade value for the first five months to 16.04 trillion yuan，or 8.3 percent higher than a year ago.

“The strong foreign trade performance in May was mostly attributable to reining in the resurgence of domestic COVID-19 cases，which enabled improvements in logistics and an acceleration of product production and shipments，”said Gao Lingyun，director of the international investment division of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences ，Institute of World Economics and Politics.

業(yè)內(nèi)專家和分析人員6月10日指出，中國(guó)5月份出口強(qiáng)勁反彈凸顯出我國(guó)外貿(mào)的韌性，隨著一攬子穩(wěn)經(jīng)濟(jì)政策措施落地見(jiàn)效，我國(guó)外貿(mào)進(jìn)出口在未來(lái)數(shù)月有望繼續(xù)保持穩(wěn)定增長(zhǎng)勢(shì)頭。

專家指出，外貿(mào)的穩(wěn)定增長(zhǎng)將有助于提振整體經(jīng)濟(jì)前景和市場(chǎng)信心，增加我國(guó)對(duì)外國(guó)投資者的吸引力。

海關(guān)總署6月9日公布的數(shù)據(jù)顯示，我國(guó)5月份出口總值打破了預(yù)期，達(dá)到1.98萬(wàn)億元，同比增長(zhǎng)15.3%;進(jìn)口1.47萬(wàn)億元，同比增長(zhǎng)2.8%。

我國(guó)今年5月份的進(jìn)出口總值達(dá)到了3.45萬(wàn)億元，同比增長(zhǎng)9.6%，從而使我國(guó)今年前5個(gè)月的進(jìn)出口總值達(dá)到了16.04萬(wàn)億元，同比增長(zhǎng)8.3%。

中國(guó)社會(huì)科學(xué)院世界經(jīng)濟(jì)與政治研究所國(guó)際投資研究室主任高凌云指出，5月份外貿(mào)表現(xiàn)強(qiáng)勁很大程度上要?dú)w功于本土新冠疫情得到控制，從而使得物流改善，產(chǎn)品生產(chǎn)和發(fā)貨加快。

tributed to the growth of trade value，but the influence was quite limited compared with the strong rebound in exports，”he said，adding?that China，s foreign trade will continue to expand and upgrade，as policies recently released to strengthen the sector need some time to deliver their full effect this year.

Starting in March，China has withstood the most challenging test yet in the fight against COVID-19，as domestic cases erupted in various places including the Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta regions，its major manufacturing and export hubs.

To help enterprises cope with the difficult situation，the government has been rolling out policy measures that mainly target smoother transportation and logistics，refining government and financial services，reducing enterprise costs，and strengthening trade facilitation.

Analysts said stabilizing foreign trade and investment has become especially important，as China strives to sustain growth and keep market entities and employment stable despite the complex internal and external environment.

Zhao Ping，vice-president of the Academy of China Council for the Promotion of International Trade，said the advantages of China's complete industrial chains will be further unleashed to bolster the competitiveness of its foreign trade enterprises as the epidemic eases，and carefully designed policies are now in place to buoy the economy.

Raymond Siu，chief financial officer and interim president of US-based paints，coatings and specialty materials company PPG's arm in the Asia-Pacific region，said that China has the most comprehensive and resilient supply chain system，and as it continues to open up，foreign companies are benefiting from increased opportunities in the growing Chinese market.

貨膨脹會(huì)促使貿(mào)易值增長(zhǎng)，但是相比出口的強(qiáng)勁反彈，這方面的影響相當(dāng)有限。他還指出，中國(guó)的外貿(mào)將會(huì)繼續(xù)擴(kuò)張升級(jí)，因?yàn)榻诎l(fā)布的穩(wěn)外貿(mào)政策需要過(guò)一段時(shí)間效果才能完全顯現(xiàn)。

國(guó)務(wù)院總理李克強(qiáng)6月8日主持召開(kāi)國(guó)務(wù)院常務(wù)會(huì)議，承諾將部署進(jìn)一步穩(wěn)外貿(mào)穩(wěn)外資舉措，提升對(duì)外開(kāi)放水平。他還要求打通堵點(diǎn)、完善配套，充分發(fā)揮政策效應(yīng)。

中國(guó)經(jīng)受住了迄今為止抗擊新冠疫情最大的考驗(yàn)。自今年三月以來(lái)，國(guó)內(nèi)多地暴發(fā)疫情，包括主要制造業(yè)和出口中心所在的長(zhǎng)江三角洲地區(qū)和珠江三角洲地區(qū)。

為了幫助企業(yè)渡過(guò)難關(guān)，政府出臺(tái)了一系列政策措施，主要目標(biāo)是暢通物流、精簡(jiǎn)政府和金融服務(wù)、降低企業(yè)成本、促進(jìn)貿(mào)易便利化。

分析人員稱，中國(guó)力圖在復(fù)雜的內(nèi)部和外部環(huán)境中穩(wěn)增長(zhǎng)、穩(wěn)就業(yè)、穩(wěn)住市場(chǎng)主體，因此穩(wěn)外貿(mào)穩(wěn)投資變得尤為重要。

中國(guó)國(guó)際貿(mào)易促進(jìn)委員會(huì)研究院副院長(zhǎng)趙萍表示，隨著疫情緩解，中國(guó)完整產(chǎn)業(yè)鏈的優(yōu)勢(shì)將會(huì)進(jìn)一步釋放以增強(qiáng)外貿(mào)企業(yè)的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)力，精準(zhǔn)的經(jīng)濟(jì)扶持政策現(xiàn)在也已就位。

美國(guó)顏料、涂料和特殊材料公司PPG亞太區(qū)首席財(cái)務(wù)官、代總裁雷蒙德·邵（音譯）表示，中國(guó)擁有最全面最有韌性的供應(yīng)鏈系統(tǒng)，隨著中國(guó)繼續(xù)對(duì)外開(kāi)放，外國(guó)公司將會(huì)從不斷擴(kuò)大的中國(guó)市場(chǎng)帶來(lái)的更多商機(jī)中獲益。
