Act as world China's trade policy and its new measures will have an impact on the trade and investment of other WTO members in the first big cargo trading countries and the second largest economies. Therefore, China's trade policy and trade practices, including the textile and clothing trade, have been highly concerned by WTO members. WTO members strongly agree with the important role played by China's economic growth in promoting world economic and trade recovery, affirming China's achievements in changing the mode of economic growth, attaching importance to China's economic development and expanding domestic demand and pushing up the import demand to them.

In the past 20 years, the global textile and garment trade has been mainly affected by three major trends: first, the elimination of quota protection; next year, the world trade organization will receive a quota cancellation of 10th anniversary; two, China and Vietnam have joined the WTO, textile and clothing trade has increased significantly; three is the adjustment and transformation of the global textile industry. These three trends have an important impact on the change of the world textile and garment trade pattern, and the emerging force of trade in the global textile industry value chain has also promoted the transformation of the trade of some emerging economies from low end to high added value.

First copy The "Bali package agreement" of multilateral trade agreements, of which trade facilitation has the most obvious impact on Global trade, can enhance the efficiency of cross-border trade, reduce costs, create jobs and enhance global trade.

At present, the global trade governance structure is undergoing a new adjustment period: the Doha round is advancing hard, especially the vigorous development of global regional economic cooperation, and its role has become increasingly prominent. This will lead to the development of global economic and trade rules, and more to rely on regional trade, such as the trans Pacific Strategic Economic Partnership Agreement (TPP), the trans the Atlantic trade and investment partnership agreement (TTIP) and the service trade agreement (TISA). With regard to these more sensitive agreements, the WTO's attitude is very clear. It hopes that regional and bilateral cooperation can complement each other with multilateral cooperation, expand trade agreements covering countries, and establish sound and reasonable global trade rules.

　　 hope Within the multilateral trading mechanism, China will achieve global benign co governance with major developed and emerging economies, seek common interests, establish new big power relations and economic order, and promote the development of multilateral trading system.
