Commerce minister confident of 6% trade growth

Commerce Minister Gao Hucheng said on Saturday that China is confident of managing 6.1 percent of trade growth this year, even though both international and domestic market demand remain soft.

The minister said China's exports volume in March will show a positive performance as the country's manufacturing activities recovered in a stable pace after the Spring Festival holiday in February.

Eager to enhance the country's exports abilities, Chinese government will offer more policy and fiscal supports to its export enterprises to help them create new market growth points through international E-commerce activities and some other flexible trading methods.
