National Development and Reform Commission at the Guohong Hotel held a news conference to introduce China's economic operation in 2006 and 2007, macroeconomic policy. Economic Operation Bureau inspector Zhang Li told the meeting that the textile industry is an important pillar industries for many years to increase employment, promote urbanization, improving people's lives and promote social and economic development made a positive contribution.
The current scale enterprises manufacturing employment accounts for about 15% of the number; industrial added value accounted for 7% of the national industrial added value; exports account for 15% of the country.
1, made great achievements in the textile industry is also facing severe challenges
Zhang Li, said that in recent years, particularly since China's accession to WTO, at home and abroad, driven by strong market demand, the textile industry developed rapidly. "15" made significant achievements during the textile industry. In 2005, China's textile fiber processing volume of 26.9 million tons, than the "Ninth Five-Year" at the end nearly doubled, average annual growth of 14.6%, accounting for the global fiber processing volume of more than 36%; textile and apparel exports of 117.5 billion U.S. dollars, than the "Ninth Five-Year "end up 1.3 times average annual growth rate of 17.3%, accounting for the global textile and apparel trade, about 24%. "Eleventh Five-Year", the textile industry to maintain rapid growth. In 2006, textile and industrial added value up 14.6%, 25.3% growth in exports, up 28.3% efficiency. Rapid development in the industry, the industrial structure to improve operational quality and efficiency increased year by year, technology advances achieved remarkable results, overall labor productivity has improved significantly.
Zhang Li pointed out that at the same time, the textile industry is also faced with resources, environmental constraints and increasingly fierce competition in international market challenges. In the new situation, the industry's deep-seated contradictions and increased daily. First, a lack of innovation. Exports are mainly OEM. Second, structural problems still exist. High-tech textiles lower proportion of large enterprises generally lack the core technology and ability to cross-border allocation of resources, greater gap between the eastern Midwest. Third, the low utilization rate of resources, pollution is relatively serious. Printing and dyeing industry, water industry has been second in the nation, wastewater emission volume is the sixth, but the lower the use of recycled water, only 7%; Fourth, market competition is not standardized. Resulted in different regions and unfair competition among enterprises, intensified in some areas of expansion of low capacity and raw materials between supply and demand.
Second, technological progress, accelerate structural adjustment
Zhang Li believes that the industry faced new challenges and structural problems, according to the scientific development concept, vigorously push forward the restructuring of textile, accelerate the transformation of the mode of growth, promote industrial upgrading, is of great significance. This is not only further strengthen and leverage competitive advantages of our textile industry to maintain the sustained and healthy development of textile industry needs, but also to promote the optimization and upgrading China's industrial structure and realizing the harmonious development of important economic and social content. Promoting the textile industry to enhance the capacity of independent innovation important restructuring of 2006, the National Development and Reform Commission and Ministry of Finance and Administration of Taxation and the People's Bank etc. ministries jointly issued a "speed up the textile industry restructuring and industrial upgrading Several Opinions "(the" Opinions "), clearly the" Eleventh Five-Year "idea of restructuring the textile industry, principles, goals, adjust the focus and the related policy measures. "Eleventh Five-Year" restructuring of the textile industry, the overall objectives are: striving to "Eleventh Five", China's textile industry has greatly increased its capabilities of independent innovation, forming a group with independent intellectual property rights, international influence with certain key technologies, well-known brand and business groups; further optimize the industrial structure, a substantial increase in the overall level of equipment, saving energy, substantial progress in environmental protection, basic built a new road to industrialization meet requirements of industrial development model. "Opinions" also put forward specific energy saving, environmental protection, the three binding targets, namely, tons of fiber consumption decreased by 10% compared to 2005, the unit value of fiber to use 20% less than in 2005, tons of fiber than water reduced 22% in 2005, the unit value of sewage discharge reduced by 20% compared to 2005.
Zhang Li explained that, in order to seriously implement the "Eleventh Five-Year" textile industry restructuring objectives, and continuously improve the quality of economic operation, the current focus of the work carried out by the textile industry include:
One is to actively promote technological progress, and enhance independent innovation capability. Vigorously implement the Platform for the textile industry made technological progress of 28 key advanced technologies and 10 new sets of key equipment, research and industrial projects, to industry and technological innovation almost as soon as possible to reach the international advanced level. Guide enterprises and social capital to increase R & D investment, to support enterprises to establish R & D center, continue to seek state support for the textile technological innovation, enhance independent innovation capability.

Second, efforts to implement energy saving. Strengthening the policy guidance, improve the industry awareness of energy saving and pollution reduction; study the establishment of the statistical index system, to implement the responsibility system and the evaluation of energy saving evaluation; support the implementation of textile industry, energy saving technology, marketing and promotional support; support waste polyester and fiber recycling, encourage the development of recycled fiber; actively explore the textile industry of effective demand side management measures; of printing and dyeing industry, access conditions to develop, improve market access threshold; speed up eliminating backward production capacity, strengthen the import of used equipment technology review.
Third, pay close attention to changes in market conditions, improve the industry to resist risks. Textile industry in 2007 the external environment is not easy, RMB appreciation, export tax rebate rate down, increasing gap between the supply of cotton, crude oil price ups and downs, chemical products such as anti-dumping multiple factors will have an effect on the industry running smoothly. Faced with an increasingly challenging environment, resource constraints, associations and enterprises should focus on a smooth running, close attention to macro-economic trend, strengthening countermeasures, adjust business strategy, operational risks.
Fourth, accelerate the economic growth mode. In 2006, the textile industry to support the restructuring of work, the state set up a "restructuring of the textile industry change the growth mode of special funds" (short textile special), around the "key technologies and equipment of textile research and innovation, environmental protection and energy saving, textile The new R & D and industrialization of the fiber, the industry innovation in public service platform, applied basic research and generic technology research, "the areas of promoting economic growth pattern to financial support. Districts in relation to the central support units to seize a favorable restructuring of the textile industry the opportunity to play all the enthusiasm, and levels of responsibility, careful organization of project implementation, and point to an area in China's textile growth mode.
Fifth, the promotion of industrial clusters of public service platform. The face of the majority of SMEs industrial clusters, innovation in general less than the current situation in the textile industry clusters to promote strong set of product R & D, quality testing, network information, training and logistics functions in an industrial cluster innovation service platform to drive change the growth mode of SMEs industrial clusters, industrial upgrading of the road to go. The region should strengthen guidance for building innovative service platform and, in capital, technology, talent, sites and other fields necessary to support and enhance the service function of public service platform, to improve service levels.
Sixth, the textile industry to promote its own brand building. National Development and Reform Commission is working with industry associations to study "on promoting China's own brand apparel industry, building the views." Enterprises in the region and to develop appropriate training and development, brand planning, good organization and implementation of brand building.
7 is to enhance corporate social responsibility system.
