ASEAN commercial vehicle production capacity low varieties less Chinese exports can be





After 10 years of long negotiations, China and the ASEAN free trade's door at 1 January of this year. Since then, has 13 million population of China and has 6 billion people in the 10 ASEAN countries establish closer trade relations.

In the first quarter of this year, China-ASEAN free trade area starts to show. The data from the State Ministry of Commerce show that 1 ~ March, China-ASEAN .1percent $ 629 billion, an increase of 61%, higher than the total amount of foreign trade in China 44% year-over-year increase, ASEAN has become China's third-largest export market and the fourth-largest trading partner.

Riding on the China-ASEAN free trade area of the start of the spring breeze, China on the ASEAN Automotive exports also radiate vitality. According to customs statistics, a quarter of our total to 10 ASEAN countries export car 12866 units, an increase of 120%, significantly higher than the motor vehicle exports grew 52% in the total export volume of vehicles throughout the proportion reached 12%.

Over the years, in order to protect the domestic automobile industry, ASEAN countries not only to automobile imports from high tariffs, also set a number of non-tariff barriers to trade. Before 2005, Malaysia has 3.0 liters displacement motor vehicle tax of up to 300% of the import duties (now reduced to 50%), and the introduction of import permits system. The greatest market potential, Indonesia had 1.5 l the following displacement cars charged 65% of the import duties, 1.5 ~ 3.0 l auto charge 70% of the import duties. These tariff and non-tariff trade barriers, seriously hindered other national car manufacturers to enter the local market.

According to China and the 10 ASEAN countries agreements, from 1 January this year, China and ASEAN 6 old Member countries (Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand) 90% of the merchandise for zero tariff; 2015, China and ASEAN four new Member countries (Viet Nam and Laos, Cambodia and Myanmar) will also be achieved 90% products tariff-free.

Gradually open customs gate, Jean associated with domestic market growth of China's automobile enterprises see new opportunities. However, some experts cautioned that car was most ASEAN countries classified as sensitive products, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand and other countries with the automotive industry to the automobile imports of caustic to high tariffs. These barriers, not because of the free trade area of the start but quickly disappeared.

In the ASEAN countries, China-ASEAN free trade agreement concerns persist. Some South-East Asian producers fear that cheap Chinese goods massive influx will threaten their survival. Indonesia and the Philippines industrial organization had strongly urged the Government to protect the vulnerable sectors. Indonesian lawmakers hartarto said that some "fragile industry is not ready and the import of Chinese products competitive. If the Government is implementing a zero tariff, these industries will perish. "In his list of 12 industries, including automotive parts.

"The voice of the opposition would undoubtedly be delaying ASEAN on China auto import tariff reductions. "Engaged in automobile distribution in more than 50 years, sales network throughout the 10 ASEAN countries of Chan Sang International CEO because Le told reporters.

The case, why in the first quarter of this year in China on the ASEAN Automotive exports occur because of high growth?, analysts say, according to the current master, South-East Asian economy is recovering, automotive market as a whole to improve, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and other countries in the first quarter of this year's increase in car sales, was the first to benefit is Thailand etc ASEAN internal car-producing countries.

ASEAN related institutions prediction borne out of this because music. Thailand Bangkok Bank overseas Chinese Affairs recently published research report, in 2010, Thailand automotive production is expected to grow 20% over last year, reaching 120 million units. Of these, Thailand's domestic car sales expected to grow than 2009, around 9% reached 60 000 vehicles; vehicle export volume is expected to grow 8%-12% to $ 57.5 million ~ 59.5 million units. The Indonesian Association of the automotive industry (Gakindo) forecast that this year the Indonesian automotive production will exceed 70 million units, an increase of 50.6%, of which export 10 million units.

The forecasts of an important background is, according to the agreement, six Member States of ASEAN and old from 1 January this year, the automotive and auto parts import tariffs reduced to zero. Based on this, transnational automobile companies to expand production capacity in the ASEAN or the construction of the joint venture.

Because music is of the view that the vast majority of Japanese, European, American multinational automotive companies in Southeast Asia has production bases in the ASEAN countries, China export cars no advantage over a short period of time. However, the Chinese commercial vehicles in the ASEAN has great potential. In addition to Thailand, other ASEAN countries commercial vehicle production capacity is negligible, Thailand production of commercial vehicles varieties and very limited, as China's commercial vehicle business offers a broad market space.

Statistics show that in recent years, China's exports to ASEAN's car most of the commercial vehicle. In the first quarter of this year, China's total exports to ASEAN, commercial vehicle 10783 accounted for ASEAN automobile export volume of 84%. Last year, the 10 ASEAN automobile sales total

About 190 million, including commercial vehicles account for 1/3.
