擁抱變革、分享機遇、共促發展……9月7日,2021年中國國際服務貿易交易會(以下簡稱“服貿會”)圓滿閉幕。本屆服貿會規模擴大,國際化水平提升,總體成果數量、交易金額均超過上屆。中國推動高水平開放的決心堅定,助力世界經濟復蘇的誠意滿滿?!胺Q之約”譜寫中國與世界共贏的新篇章。
行走于服貿會會場,代表新技術、新業態、新模式的互動場景,座無虛席、討論熱烈的論壇,活動密集、人頭攢動的成果發布廳,“機遇”可謂無所不在。
機遇源于服務貿易發展的巨大潛力。近10年來,全球服務貿易平均增速為貨物貿易增速的兩倍,在國際貿易中的占比和地位穩步提升。服務貿易對內加速產業要素整合優化,成為經濟的重要增長極;對外促進國際分工合作,成為國際貿易的重要組成部分和國際經貿合作的重要領域。
中國連續7年保持服務貿易世界第二大國地位,與世界近240個國家和地區有服務貿易往來,服務貿易進出口額占全球總額的比例持續提升?!爸袊铡币殉蔀椤叭蚍铡钡木薮笠妗?/p>
機遇源于數字賦能激發的創新動能。隨著數字要素加速融入,服務的可貿易性大幅提升。疫情下,傳統服務貿易受到較大沖擊,數字貿易發展勢頭強勁,占全球服務貿易比重進一步上升,展現出強大韌性。
作為全球貿易大國,中國數字經濟產業蓬勃發展?!笆濉睍r期,中國數字貿易增長47.4%,占服務貿易的比重從30.6%增至44.5%。預計到2025年,中國可數字化的服務貿易進出口總額將超過4000億美元,占服務貿易總額比重將達到50%。
機遇源于中國合作共贏的開放姿態。當前全球疫情起伏不定,世界經濟復蘇面臨挑戰,服務業開放合作成為推動復蘇的重要力量。中國順應服務貿易全球化趨勢,著力推進服務貿易領域開放,不斷優化合作環境。從在全國推進實施跨境服務貿易負面清單到探索建設國家服務貿易創新發展示范區,本屆服貿會再次釋放出高水平開放信號。
共享服務貿易發展機遇,共促世界經濟復蘇和增長。服貿會讓世界看到更加開放的中國市場,感受到做大“服貿蛋糕”的中國擔當和提振世界經濟的中國力量。面向未來,中國與世界有“服”同享的精彩將持續展現。
The 2021 China International Fair for Trade in Services (CIFTIS) concluded on September 7. It advocates the concept of embracing changes, sharing opportunities and jointly advancing world development. Compared with the last session, the CIFTIS this year features a bigger scale, a higher international level and a larger amount of achievements and transactions. China has been firmly promoting high-level opening-up and genuinely facilitating the world economic recovery. The CIFTIS has created a new chapter of win-win situation between China and the world.
In the last decade, the average growth rate of global trade in services was twice that of trade in goods, and the proportion and position of the former in international trade were steadily raised. China has remained the second largest country in the world in service trade for seven consecutive years. It develops trade in services with nearly 240 countries and regions and its proportion of import and export of service trade in the world’s total volume continues to increase. “Chinese services” have become a driver of “global services”.
As the global COVID-19 pandemic has not been fully controlled and the world economic recovery is hindered, open cooperation in the service industry has become a crucial force to advance economic recovery. Following the trend of service trade globalization, China is endeavoring to promote the opening of the service trade sector and continuously optimizing the cooperation environment. This session of the CIFTIS will show the trend of high-quality opening-up again by implementing the negative list for cross-border trade in services nationwide and trying to build a national service trade innovation and development demonstration zone.
