Domestic And Foreign Market Demand For Textile Industry In 2012 Is Hard To Shrink.

On January 10th this afternoon, the seventh annual meeting of China spinning round table forum was held in Beijing.

Wang Tiankai, chairman of the Chinese people's Political Consultative Conference and President of the China Textile Industry Federation, pointed out that the environment that the textile industry needs to face in 2012 is still very complicated. From the big environment, the development situation of the textile industry will be tight, especially in the first half of the year.

The following is the full text of Wang Tiankai's speech:

In 2012, the environment faced by the textile industry is still very complex. From the perspective of the environment, the development of the industry will be tighter, especially in the first half of the year.

On the one hand, the European debt crisis continues and the world economic recovery is weak, which will have a significant negative impact on consumption.

Especially the developed countries such as the United States and Europe, which are the main consumers of the international market, have a weak economic recovery, and the unemployment rate remains high. The demand for the international market is expected to remain weak.

Export enterprises are facing insufficient demand, and competition pressures and trade frictions will become more prominent.

On the other hand, the difficulty of consumption growth is increasing, and the demand for international investment has slowed down. The pressure of China's economic growth in 2012 is expected to increase further.

With the fluctuation of raw material prices, the increase of labor force and other factors and the fact that the financing environment of SMEs has not yet reached substantial improvement, textile industry will face greater difficulties as a competitive industry.

Nevertheless, textile and clothing, as the basic attributes of daily necessities, have determined that domestic and international market demand will not shrink significantly. Especially, the fundamental needs of our domestic demand market have not changed fundamentally. The income growth of urban and rural residents will remain at a speed not lower than that of economic growth. Policies and measures to improve people's livelihood and expand domestic demand will also continue to be implemented.

With the gradual easing of inflation pressure, the domestic demand for textile and clothing has been steadily expanded and will continue to be the primary support for the development of the textile industry.

At the same time, we should see that although the international market competition is more intense, the mature and complete industrial system of our textile industry has formed an integrated competitive advantage, and the quality and market share still have obvious international competitive advantages.

At the same time, tightening external environment has formed a market forced mechanism, bringing a new round of shuffling to promote industrial upgrading and adjustment.

Therefore, it is expected that the production and marketing efficiency of China's textile industry will continue to increase in 2012, and the main operational indicators of Enterprises above designated size are expected to maintain a two digit growth rate, but the growth rate will slow down compared with the previous year.

The end market will have less space to raise the price of consumer goods, and it is expected that the decline in the export and profit growth rate of the industry will be more obvious. The difficulties faced by small and medium-sized enterprises, especially the processing SMEs, will be more prominent. According to the above judgment on the overall economic situation of the textile industry, the overall keynote spirit of the central economic work conference should be certified and implemented in the whole industry in 2012. In order to expand domestic demand as the strategic basis, in line with the Central Committee's efforts to speed up economic restructuring and strengthen the work of independent coordination, we should take full and objective understanding of the grim situation facing the new year and all kinds of difficult problems, and further enhance our confidence in the development of the industry, and take targeted measures to deal with it positively. Among them, due to the economic downturn

The Textile Federation mainly considers the following three aspects. First, we must pay close attention to the operation of small and medium-sized enterprises and coastal export processing enterprises.

Once the external demand is falling and the domestic economy is down, these enterprises will face greater pressure and affect the stable operation of the whole industry.

Efforts should be made to strengthen investigation and research, accurately grasp the operation trend of these enterprises, and timely reflect their operational status and policy demands to the relevant government departments, further promote the financial support of small and medium-sized enterprises in China and implement the structural tax reduction policies, so as to overcome difficulties for them, stabilize employment, pform and develop, and create a favorable environment.

Second, under the influence of the downward pressure of the economy, the total contradiction of the industry will be highlighted.

International trade frictions may intensify. On the one hand, we must strengthen industry restrictions, standardize market order and trade practices, and prevent excessive competition.

On the other hand, we must speed up structural adjustment, correctly guide enterprises, do a good job in internal strength, rationally and steadily run production enterprises, strengthen internal management, reduce production costs, strive to develop new products, new channels, new markets, fully fulfill corporate social responsibilities, and do everything we can to do what they can.

Third, as an industry organization, the China Federation of textile industry will concentrate on the analysis and research of industrial policies, actively communicate and coordinate with the relevant departments of the government, build on the reform of the cotton circulation system, develop bottlenecks, make breakthroughs in key policy areas of textile enterprises, conscientiously do well in basic work such as industrial exhibitions, domestic consumption development, public service platform construction, technology and information information, industrial pfer guidance, independent brand building, and management innovation achievement promotion, so as to provide effective help for stable operation of enterprises.

Comrades, 2012 is an important year for the textile industry to carry out the "12th Five-Year" plan.

Facing the critical period of pformation from big to strong, undertaking the arduous task of accelerating pformation and upgrading. Although the external environment has undergone complex changes, the operation and development of the industry are faced with various risks and challenges, but only after environmental friction and deep adjustment and pformation can the textile industry truly become an industry with risk resisting ability and sustained and healthy development.

As long as we strengthen our confidence, adhere to scientific development and speed up the adjustment and upgrading, we will be able to defuse various risks and successfully accomplish the task of steady progress in the 2012. Thank you.
