Chinanews, Beijing, Apr. 27 – China is trying to make some policy changes in order to control the export of high energy-consuming, high-polluting resource products. In doing so, China will gradually reduce the tax rebate1 level for primary processed products, said Jia Yinsong, deputy director of the State Development and Reform Commission, on Thursday.
In recent years, Chinese government has taken a series of measures to control the export of high energy-consuming goods. As a part of these efforts, the government has reduced the tax refund2 for exported rolled steel. However, during the first quarter of this year, the export amount of high energy-consuming goods soared, which aroused the government's attention. During the first three months of the year, China exported 14 million tons of rolled steel and 1.78 million tons of steel billets, up 120% and 98.1%, respectively, compared with the same period last year. In addition, the export of coke and iron alloy3 also increased by 20% and 70%, respectively. In regard to the widespread saying that China will reduce tax rebate for textiles, Jia didn’t respond to it directly. However, he said that Chinese government would take effective measures to trying to drag down the huge trade surplus. Although during the first three months of the year, trade surplus shrank to some extent, still trade surplus stood at 46.44 billion US dollars. So it might take some time before China can finally reduce huge trade surplus dramatically.
