Shenzhou-15 astronauts returned to Earth safely with fruitful results.
Here’s what you need to know about China in the past 24 hours中国经济要闻
The fully implemented Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership pact will significantly enhance economic integration in the Asia-Pacific region and sustain the long-term and stable growth of the global economy, the Ministry of Commerce said on Friday.
The ministry"s comments came as the Philippines became the final member to activate the RCEP agreement on Friday, making the mega free trade pact effective for all signatory countries. Under the agreement, more than 90 percent of trade in goods among approved member economies will gradually be tariff-free.
The full-force implementation of the RCEP demonstrates the commitment and actions of all 15 participating countries toward supporting a multilateral trading system that is open, free, fair, inclusive and rules-based, said the ministry, stressing that it will notably elevate the level of trade and investment liberalization and facilitation in East Asia.
The RCEP came into force on Jan 1, 2022. It is a mega free trade agreement involving Australia, China, Japan, South Korea, New Zealand and the 10 members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations. The 15 nations are home to 2.27 billion people with a combined GDP of $26 trillion and total exports of $5.2 trillion, accounting for about 30 percent of global trade in goods.
In another statement released on Friday, the ministry"s head of international trade and economic affairs said that the fully implemented RCEP pact will boost China"s high-level opening-up to the world.
The official emphasized the importance of ensuring the high-quality implementation of the RCEP, as it will foster the integration of regional industrial and supply chains, unlocking new opportunities for international economic and trade cooperation for localities, industries and companies, as well as facilitate the advancement of higher-level institutional opening-up from an elevated starting point.
Bolstered by favorable tariff policies and their complementary trade structures, China"s foreign trade with the other 14 RCEP members grew by 7.5 percent year-on-year to 12.95 trillion yuan in 2022, according to data from the General Administration of Customs.
The momentum has also been sustained this year, with China"s imports and exports with these countries surging 7.3 percent year-on-year to 4.1 trillion yuan in the first four months of 2023.
6月2日，《区域全面经济伙伴关系协定》（RCEP）对菲律宾正式生效，标志着RCEP对15个签署国全面生效。RCEP的全面生效充分体现了15方支持开放、自由、公平、包容和以规则为基础的多边贸易体制的决心和行动，将为区域经济一体化注入强劲动力，全面提升东亚贸易投资自由化便利化水平，助力地区和全球经济长期稳定发展。
2020年11月15日，东盟10国和澳大利亚、中国、日本、韩国、新西兰共同签署RCEP，并推动协定于2022年1月1日正式生效。2023年6月2日，RCEP对菲律宾正式生效，至此，协定对15个签署国全面生效。RCEP区域总人口、GDP总值、货物贸易金额均占全球比重约30%，协定对15方全面生效标志着全球人口最多、经贸规模最大、最具发展潜力的自由贸易区进入全面实施的新阶段。
业内人士普遍认为，RCEP全面生效实施，将带动成员国相互推进贸易投资，为区域经济一体化注入强劲动力。
商务部国际司负责人指出，在各方共同努力下，RCEP实施以来，成效初步显现。各成员间货物贸易往来更加密切，区域内贸易成为稳定和拉动各成员对外贸易增长的关键力量。同时，受益于RCEP生效实施释放的积极信号，本地区持续成为全球投资的热点区域，大多数成员利用外资呈现积极上升态势，区域整体吸引绿地投资增势强劲。
商务部数据显示，2023年1至4月，中国与RCEP其他成员国进出口总额为4.12万亿元，同比增长7.3%，占中国外贸进出口总额30.9%。从吸引外资看，1至4月中国实际利用RCEP其他成员投资额近89亿美元，同比增长超过13.7%。
商务部表示，RCEP为我国广大企业带来实实在在的红利和实惠。RCEP叠加我国和RCEP其他成员已生效的双边自贸协定，为企业更好享惠创造了良好条件，帮助企业降低了贸易成本。2022年，我国企业在RCEP项下享惠出口货值2353亿元人民币，可享受进口国关税减让15.8亿元；享惠进口货值653亿元，减让税款15.5亿元。2023年一季度，我国企业在RCEP项下享惠出口货值622.9亿元，可享受进口国关税减让9.3亿元；享惠进口货值182.5亿元，减让税款4.8亿元。
