中國福州港與馬來西亞巴生港簽署《友好港合作意向書》

6月15日，中國福建省福州港口管理局與馬來西亞巴生港務局在馬來西亞首都吉隆坡簽署《友好港合作意向書》，締結成為友好港。

福州港位于中國大陸東南部，是中國沿海主要港口之一和綜合運輸體系的重要樞紐。巴生港位于馬六甲海峽，是馬來西亞最大的港口。目前福州港已有2條集裝箱航線掛靠巴生港。此次雙方簽約成為友好港，未來將在港口建設、運營、信息技術、招商引資、人員交流等領域展開合作，促進雙方港口業(yè)和航運業(yè)發(fā)展，服務21世紀“海上絲綢之路”建設。

中國與東盟致力于提升藥用植物資源保護與開發(fā)合作

6月15-22日，廣西—東盟藥用植物資源保護與生產(chǎn)培訓班在中國南寧舉行。老撾、柬埔寨、緬甸等東盟國家從事藥用資源管理和研究的人員在中國廣西進行學習與交流。

近年來，中國中醫(yī)藥資源的過度開發(fā)使得一些藥用資源面臨枯竭的窘境。東盟國家藥用資源種類多、產(chǎn)量大，但是部分東盟國家在傳統(tǒng)醫(yī)藥技術等方面的推廣應用尚顯薄弱。因此，中國與東盟加強藥用植物資源保護與開發(fā)合作，將有利于雙方實現(xiàn)資源和技術的優(yōu)勢互補以及傳統(tǒng)醫(yī)藥資源的共享。

業(yè)內(nèi)人士認為，根據(jù)泰國對華免簽證后中國游客由200萬飆升至400萬的情況看，若馬來西亞對中國游客免簽證，則中國游客數(shù)量保守估計將增長50%。這對于從2014年以來，市場出現(xiàn)下滑現(xiàn)象的馬來西亞旅游業(yè)來說，將打開一個全新的局面。

1 China to promote cross-border e-commerce as incomes rise

June 23, 2015 (China Daily) -- China will increase support for crossborder e-commerce as the world's second-largest economy shifts from manufacturing to higher-value services, the government said. China's e-commerce industry has been booming in recent years, with companies like Alibaba Group Holding Ltd and JD.com Inc benefiting from a rising middle class with more disposable income. The government released policy guidelines that include tax policies aimed at boosting domestic consumption and pilot projects to ease overseas payments, according to a statement posted on the central government's website www.gov.cn. Chinese e-commerce firms will be given state support on international projects while credit insurance services will also be introduced.

2 Government backs creation of emerging industries board

June 17, 2015 (China Daily) -- The State Council, China's cabinet, issued a statement officially supporting the creation of a strategic emerging industries board on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, to help high-growth and innovative enterprises raise funds through the capital market. It is the first time the central government has given its official nod to such a move, said analysts, who now expect the board to be in place soon. The launch has been widely viewed as Shanghai's effort to catch up with domestic rival, the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, which has already been successfully attracting technology and innovation-driven companies to list on its Nasdaq-style startup and growth enterprise board, known as ChiNext. "It is obvious that head-to-head competition between the two stock exchanges over initial public offerings for startup companies is growing," said Xu Hongcai, an economist at the Beijing-based China Center for International Economic Exchanges.

3 China regulates new EV makers

June 5, 2015 (China Daily) -- China is set to regulate pure electric vehicle makers' production conditions from July 10 and encourage innovative companies to join the research and production. The future EVs should have a max speed faster than 100 km/h. The regulation said that future trial-produced EVs should number at least 15 units, with a driving range per charge no shorter than 100 km and can accelerate from 0 to 50 km/ h within five seconds. It requires that an EV maker must be a company registered in China and that it has thorough research and development experience in concept design, system and structure engineering, testing and finalizing the model. A company is also required to have intellectual property rights in an EV, and master the core technologies in its control system, power battery system, vehicle integration and lightweight structure. And the carmaker needs to be capable of testing related technologies.

4 Repo market opens to short-term foreign loans

June 5, 2015 (China Daily) -- China has opened a market for short-term loans to foreign banks, giving them access to cheaper yuan funding as policymakers encourage greater global use of the currency. All overseas yuan clearing and settlement banks that participate in the interbank bond market can conduct repurchase agreements and move the funds abroad, the People's Bank of China said in a statement. There are 107 offshore lenders that can exchange debt with their local counterparts and the change will make repos possible for most of them, including HSBC Holdings Plc and Standard Chartered Plc. The change comes as China seeks to bolster the case for the International Monetary Fund to grant the yuan reserve status later this year.

5 Plan for emerging industries on cards

June 6, 2015 (China Daily) -- China will come out with a five-year plan (2016-20) for the development of its strategic emerging industries and to further boost its innovation efforts, the nation's top economic planner said. The National Development and Reform Commission highlighted a number of priorities for reform, including facilitating an innovative drug approval process, opening low-altitude airspace, opening up of broadband services to private investors and promoting charging facilities for electric vehicles. At the same time, the government will also encourage strategic emerging enterprises to expand channels for fund raising through initial public offerings, bond issues and crowd funding. Wang Changlin, head of the research department of industrial economics under the NDRC's Academy of Macroeconomic Research, told China Daily that related investigations and studies are underway.

6 Regulators target 'abuse' of IPR

June 5, 2015 (China Daily) -- The National Development and Reform Commission, one of the three agencies that deal with antitrust activity and investigations, is drawing up guidelines covering monopolistic conduct and the abuse of intellectual property rights, an official involved in the effort said. The guidelines will affect IPR products and service providers, a broad group that includes the information technology and telecommunications industries, the medical sector, vehicles, machinery and seeds for the agriculture sector and other technology-intensive activities. In April, the State Administration of Industry of Commerce, one of the three regulators, announced a set of rules collectively called the Prohibition of Abuse of IPR to Eliminate or Restrict Competition, which will take effect on Aug.1.

7 Margin trading regulations revised

June 13, 2015 (China Daily) -- The rules covering investors' use of margin trading and short selling were relaxed in a draft document released by the China Securities Regulatory Commission. Deng Ge, the CSRC spokesman, told a news conference that the CSRC will drop restrictions that are no longer compatible with the current conditions involving margin trading and short selling. The revised rules scrap a requirement that investors wanting to use these methods must trade with the same securities brokerage for more than six months, as well as a requirement that the clearing and settlement capital must be placed in escrow with a third-party financial institution. Deng said that the overall risks of margin trading and short selling are manageable, but he urged securities firms to maintain a "prudent" balance between the scale of their business in these areas and their capital.

8 China proposes double taxes on excess emissions

June 11, 2015 (Xinhua) -- The State Council, China's cabinet, released for public opinion a draft law on environmental taxes, which proposes business taxes for pollutants, solid waste and noise. The draft proposed rates ranging from 350 yuan ($57) to 11,200 yuan on various industrial noises according to the decibels level. It also set rates of 1.2 yuan on a stipulated quantity of air pollutants, 1.4 yuan on a stipulated quantity of water pollutants, and a range of 5 to 30 yuan for each ton of different kinds of solid waste. Rates will be doubled for emissions in excess of the stipulated amount. Taxes may also be halved if emissions are below half the national standard. Provincial governments may "appropriately" raise rates taking local environmental conditions into account.
