Free AccessEconomist Urges China to Continue to Develop Manufacturing
BEIJING (MNI) - China needs to insist on developing its manufacturing
sector while new industries come into being and the country's industrial
structure is upgraded, according to an economist and advisor to the National
People's Congress.
"Manufacturing is the backbone of the real economy," Yin Zhongqing, vice
chairman of the Financial and Economic Affairs Committee of the National
People's Congress, said at a forum entitled "Explore New Reform, Evoke New
Power" on Thursday in Beijing.
"Developing new industries could also add new momentum" to the economy, he
said. "We cannot separate these two things or put them against each other."
Traditional industries stabilize economic growth, boost employment, and are
major sources of revenue, Yin said, adding that both the amount and quality of
these industries need to be enhanced. He also pointed out that the trend at the
local level is that too much emphasis is placed on new industries and
traditional industries are ignored.
Yin said that although manufacturing becomes less important to any
economically maturing country, it should not mean that the manufacturing sector
is given decreased status.
"Some developing countries fell into the 'middle income trap' because they
gave up on the manufacturing sector too early," Yin said, referring to the
situation where a country's growth slows after it achieves middle-income levels.
"Some developed countries also face economic structural imbalances due to the
underdevelopment of their manufacturing."
Yin argued that China's manufacturing sector is the foundation for its
service sector, with the service sector ultimately serving the manufacturing
industry. China is also on the path of seeking new growth engines amid an
economic slowdown, thus the integration and development of both the
manufacturing and service sectors are very important, Yin said.
The expanding gap between China's capital outflows and slowing capital
inflows is also a concern for China, Yin said. He said some Chinese companies
are not "going out," but "moving out," and as they do so are moving not only
their assets overseas but also their resources, leaving China at a disadvantage.
Yin also said that the Chinese government plays too big a role in the
economic development, with "over-intervention" by the government a serious
problem.
He stressed the need to specify the boundaries of the government and the
market, and utilize the market's decisive function in resource allocation to a
greater degree to achieve the goal of supply-side reform.
