Over the past year, China has lowered its import tariffs on 3,408 products from ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) countries in line with their free trade agreement, announced Ministry of Commerce spokesman Chong Quan on Friday.

 

"The ASEAN countries have also cut their import tariffs on some products imported from China," he said.

 

Chinese customs figures show that from July 2005 to May 2006, China's import volume from ASEAN reached US$74.15 billion, up 20.6 percent on the previous year, while China's exports to ASEAN grew 23.1 percent to US$55.57 billion.

 

The facts prove that Sino-ASEAN free trade arrangement bolsters bilateral trade and is mutually beneficial, Chong said.

 

The two sides are now negotiating on two agreements about service trade and investment, according to Chong.

 

Over the next few years, China and ASEAN will continue to cut their tariffs on more than 7,000 products, and gradually open service and investment areas, he said.

 

By 2010 when the construction of the free trade area is basically complete, most of the tariffs between China and ASEAN will be abolished, he said.
