The News Office of the State Council held a press conference on Monday (March 20). Some reporters asked questions that the Customs Department released data not long ago. The total value of import and export in China in the first two months of this year fell by 0.8%.The increase in the number of air containers in the port has aroused concern for everyone's concerns about import and export foreign trade this year.
Yu Jianhua, director of the General Administration of Customs, responded that the reasons for the accumulation of containers include the excessive amount of new containers in the previous period, the low domestic stacking cost, and the short -term return of the empty box after the foreign epidemic was relieved.The role of sexuality.
Yu Jianhua said that a large number of empty boxes are ready to go at the port of China, which also reflects that the international market is still optimistic about China's export capabilities in the next stage of China.From the latest data from the customs, since late February, the amount of export boxes has continued to grow.
According to CCTV news reports, a reporter recently visited the largest container loading and unloading dock in Zhoushan Port Ningbo a few days ago and found that at the third container terminal, the wharf thread of 3.74 kilometers was almost full of container cargo ships.The bridge is busy loading and unloading the goods.There are 49 bridges along the dock, of which 45 bridges are hanging normally.
However, the pier also has the accumulation of container aircraft.According to the dock staff, the container over four layers is stacked together, and basically all are empty boxes.The person in charge of the port revealed that the number of empty boxes stored in the port at present is about 140,000 standard boxes.
Wu Guangji, deputy manager of the operation and operation department of Ningbo Beilun Third Container Pier Co., Ltd., said that according to the normal production level, this is a scope value for normal acceptable.He explained that there was a pile of container aircraft accumulation in the pier. On the one hand, the reasons for the air box of foreign trade, and the second was that the newly added container caused a large amount of return after the entire production and usage cycle.
Public data shows that the container shipping market has risen in 2021, and the global container of more than 7 million standard boxes has been produced, which is nearly three times the conventional year.Nowadays, the period of port congestion and "a box of difficulty" has passed. The "one increase and one decrease" of container supply and demand has caused more empty boxes at this stage.
Some experts point out that although the number of empty boxes, container freight, etc., are some indicators to observe the development trend of foreign trade, they are not all indicators.Gu Xueming, Dean of the International Institute of International Trade and Economic Cooperation of the Ministry of Commerce of China, said that container freight rates have reached a record high after the epidemic, and now it has begun to fall as the shipping market is normalized. This is also an inevitable result of the resumption of freight rates.So these indicators (changes) do not mean that China's foreign trade scale will decline.
