10、”, but this did not mean that from 2005, the members can export and import textile without limited. china and asean are countries in asia and also are powerful nations of textile exports. these countries have many similarities in the geographical position，the natural condition and the technical leve

11、l in production. so these countries have many similarities in trade structure. that means there are much competition in product export and market especially in textile trade between china and asean. therefore before the truly forms of the global textile trade integration, the area become to be the p

12、ressure to china day by day. under the quick development of china and asean textile trade, this article is to study the textile industry of china and, using the comprehensive analysis, to discuss bilateral exportation structures of textile and their trade relation.on april 30, 1999, cambodia joined

13、the asean officially, 10 countries (brunei, cambodia, indonesia, laos, malaysia, burma, the philippines, singapore, thailand and vietnam) the formed finally. in the asean-10, we designated that thailand, vietnam and indonesia three countries (hereafter refers to as “the association of southeast asia

14、n nations three countries”) to take the research sample, because they have occupied the quite big share in the entire trade. first indonesia is the first largest textiles producer and exporter; speaking of thailand, the textile industry is also the very important industrial department. since 1985, t

15、hailand already had become one of important textile clothing export state, every year more than 60 hundred million dollars exports, the clothing export accounts for 55%, occupies the global market share 2.5%, in the world clothing exports in the national rank to be situated 12th; vietnam, as an emer

16、ging textile clothing production and export state, in global 153 countries which produces and exports the textile, occupies 16th place, estimated that will enter first 10 to 2010. thus it can be seen, indonesia, thailand and vietnam will pose the significant threat to our country textile industry, i

17、t is necessary to analyze our country and the textile industry foreign trade situation.chapter i the comparison of the textile industry development situation between china and major country in asean1.1 the status of the textile industry in national economy china has been the largest textile product

18、and export country in the world, its textile products and clothes exports has been the first place of the world in 1995. china joined in the wto in 2001, after that our countrys textile and clothes exports kept increasing fast, the textile industry had been the pillar industry of the national econom

19、y and the important industry to earn foreign exchange through export. the textile export scale increases by yearly average 16.4% rate every year, occupying 23% of the countrys exports. its share in the worlds textile products exports has been reached 16%. the large external surplus from exports has

20、been an important way of the stash of foreign currency and fund for accumulation, and it is very important to the national economy.the textile industry is important to most country in asean. indonesia is the largest textile product country and the textile export country in asean. its the worlds 11th

21、 largest textile producing and exporting country. textile industry is always the largest industry in indonesia, its output value, exports and employment scale are at the top place in all the other industry of the country. the condition of natural resource; labor force and the cost of land are very c

22、onvenient to develop textile industry. speaking of thailand, the textile industry is also the very important industrial department. since 1985, thailand already had become one of important textile clothing export state, every year more than 60 hundred million dollars exports, the clothing export acc

23、ounts for 55%, occupies the global market share 2.5%, in the world clothing exports in the national rank to be situated 12th. to thailand, textile industry is an important industry to earn foreign exchange through export, and a good way to deal with the problem of the employment, and it plays an inf

24、luential role in the industrialization. vietnam, as an emerging textile clothing production and export state, in global 153 countries which produces and exports the textile, occupies 16th place, estimated that it will enter first 10 to 2010. now, the textile industry has been the pillar industry of

25、vietnam. high quality and cheap labor forces and the trade environment improved make vietnam textile industry develop fast. so, above all, they will be an important challenger to chinese textile industry.1.2 the textile raw material resourcesthe raw material problem restricts the development of chin

26、ese textile industry. the raw materials for chinese textile industry are abundant. there are various textile materials in china, and the quantity is plentiful. china can enjoy an absolute advantage, but it doesnt mean china can enjoy a competitive advantage. in terms of different textiles, chinese s

27、ilk and clothes have great competitive power in the international market, cotton spinning and woolen spinning are also have competitive power. but competitive power of chemical fiber and dyeing are weaker. the two textiles emphasize the textile production technology and the craft; its just a weak li

28、nk of chinese textile industry. cotton industry which has resource advantage in china has been in a monopoly state over a long period. the imperfect market mechanism has limited circulation of commodities. all these reasons enable the domestic cotton price to be higher than the international cotton

29、price. the enterprises have to import most of its raw materials from pakistani and other country. at the same time, the domestic textile industry working capacity grows too fast; the price competition is getting intense. these situations make the shortage of the resources more and more serious.the r

30、aw materials for textile industry of asean are deficient, not good and relying on imports. indonesia imported 22 million package of cotton in 2007, the major cotton supplies countries are american (48%); australia (28%) and brazil (8.7%). in 2006, indonesia imported most cotton yarn from china (16.4

31、%) and pakistani (41%), and also imported cotton cloth from china (57.2%) and pakistani (9.4%). in 2006, vietnam imported cotton 138 thousand tons, valued at 196 million dollars, imported reels thread 231 thousand tons, valued at 361 million dollars, the cloth import value 1.913 billion. thailand is

32、nt rich in the production of textile materials either; and half of the clothes materials have to be imported from other country. anyway, they have insufficient textile materials supply, and the technology is far behind other countries. these make high-cost in their enterprises, and reduce their comp

33、etitive power in the international market.1.3 cost of the labor forcealthough now the technology of textile industry develops fast, the textile industry is still labor-intensive industries. the international competitiveness of the textile industry is decided by the quality and cost of the labor forc

34、e. because of the abundant human resources and lower paid in china and asean, as the comparative advantage theory and the factor endowment theory say, these countries have human cost advantage in the textile. now each countrys labor cost of textile industry has a rising trend. in china, the wages of

35、 labor force are still in a low level, but recent years, the wages have a rising trend too. from 1995 to 2007, the labor force wages of chinese textile industry grow 105%; the wage level in 2007 was 2.07 times that of the wage level in 1995, the growth is much faster than indonesia and thailand. alt

36、hough, in the beginning, the labor force cost of textile industry in thailand is in a low level, nowadays the labor force wage grows faster and faster. now the wage level in thailand is higher than china, and even almost twice higher than indonesia and vietnam. because of the lower wage level and th

37、e good trade environment, the textile enterprise in thailand starts to shift to vietnam.chapter ii competitiveness of export trade between china and the major countries in asean2.1 the present situation of textile export between china and the major countries in aseanthe textile occupies an important

38、 position in china and asean; it is also the important content by constructing the free trade area between china and asean. while china and asean both belong to resources and labor-intensive export-oriented countries, at present they are basically at the same stage on development, both sides have th

39、e keen competition in the textile international market.china and asean have kept a positive development situation of textile trade, recent years, the most textiles china imports from asean are cotton yarn, textile raw materials and intermediate goods and so on, but china exports to asean is various

40、categories of textile and clothing which are extensive, and the most product is knitting clothing and cotton yarn. generally speaking, in the textile trade between china and asean, asean still occupies the upstream of industrial chain, while china occupies the downstream; in the aspect of clothing t

41、rade, china has the strong export superiority to asean; in the aspect of textile raw material and intermediate product, both sides have the big quantity of import and export, they have a good cooperative prospects in trade and processing.in the 2004 list of global textile export, china ranked the se

42、cond, its export were $33.43 billion which occupies 17.2% of the world export share; thai ranked the third that increased by 21%. but in 2004 the export of textile in asean occupied only 1.0% in the entire export of. from 2005 to 2007, the textile export in china arrived at $115 billion, $114 billio

43、n and $117.2 billion. in these three years, indonesias textile products had a rapid development, in 2005, its textile export reached at $8.61 billion, and in 2007 it was $100.03 billion. the figures show that in the list of textile export, china still holds the overwhelming superiority to most count

44、ries in asean.2.2 compare on the export similarity index of textile product between china and the major countries in aseanwhen researching on the degree of competition in various countries about the common market, it always uses the similarity index to compare various countries export. compared with

45、 other trade index in reckoning the export structure, export similarity index has the merit lies that its increasing can reflect many characteristics such as the rapid economic grow, the evolution of industrial structure and industrialization advancement. whats more, this index over time tends to co

46、nvergence. the index can be measured in two different territories, namely the commodity territory (export commodity) and the market territory (exports destination). although the results of measuring belong to different territory, they are equal with each other when the index chooses the suitable wei

47、ght in measuring process. this article takes the market territory as the research field, uses the similarity index modified by glick-rose to measure the export similarity index of world market in china and asean, this index shows as followed with the formula:in the formula, x represents the export a

48、mount, its superscript i represents the export commodity, the two subscripts represents export country (country i or country j) and export destination (country w). xliw / xiw said the proportion of the total of commodity l which country i export to country, xliw / xiw said the proportion of the tota

49、l of commodity l which country j export to country w。 the range of parameter s (ij, w) is from 0 to 100, if the distribution that country i and country j export the commodity to country w are completely the same, the index value is 100; otherwise, the index value is 0. if the index rises along with

50、the time lapses, it indicates that both export structure of the countries tend to be restraining, simultaneously it also means that these two countries are getting more and more intense on competition in the world market.compared with other indexes, similarity index of export modified by glick-rose

51、has the following characteristics: (l) it uses export share replaced by the export amount in order to adjust the problems which is bright by the national different scales. (2) it hypothesis that the influence caused by unbalanced trade is corresponding proportion in counties, the adjustment can remo

52、ve the influence of deviation caused by the unbalanced trade. (3) it calculates the trade scale in a high level, thus overcomes the problems of the examination deviation.using the export similarity index to calculate the similar level of textile export structure in china and the three countries in a

53、sean from 1981 to 2007, and then we can analyze the changed situation of competition in the export domain of textile. in order to smooth the year border change by some merchandise trade, here we use the average value of three yeas as a group. from the following table, we can know that, generally, th

54、e similarity index of export product in china and asean are all very high. the index between china and indonesia and thailand has achieved 73% and 75%, the index with vietnam also achieved a high level by 69%, and they displays a high convergence speed.this indicates that china and the three countri

55、es in asean have a similar evolved way in industrial transfer; it reflects china and the three countries in asean have more and more competitions in the long-term of world market. compared from the time series, we can see that, around the index canceling the quota with 2002 to 2004, there is an incr

56、easing; it indicates that as the time global textile realizing the integration to provide unprecedented development opportunities in various countries, it also intensifies them a higher competition in the world market. it is noteworthy that the similarity index of indonesia and thailand had declined

57、 since 1998 and 1995 separately, this means that a rising specialized labor division degree in the world market.the similarity index of textile export between china and the three countries in asean in the world market (unit: %)year81-8384-8687-8990-9293-9596-9899-0102-0405-07average52.5261.2664.7868

59、a and major countries in asean3.1 the textile trade cooperation on processed products of china and major countries in aseangenerally speaking, the textile export trade development pattern of china and asean countries is basically quantity-increasing type. the degree of product processing is not high

60、, but looked from the segmentation profession that both sides respectively have the superiority, such as chinas yarn, deep processing fabric which is still very popular in the asean market. the export of such products in total exports accounted for more than 60%. although the chinese apparel exports
