Silk enterprises are calling for state support policies

2008 National Silk Fashion Design Competition Guangdong Division "Sili Cup" finals recently held in Guangzhou. According to Ge Hui, president of China Silk Association, there are four major shortcomings in the silk industry at present: the lack of attention to brand building; the production and design of silk fabrics can not meet the demand; the export-oriented, inadequate attention to domestic demand and the backward sales style in China; While ignoring the elderly. The competition aims to enhance the silk brand design and innovation. "A combination of factors such as rising labor costs and the appreciation of the renminbi have substantially reduced the profits of silk enterprises; many SMEs are having difficulty in lending." In view of the current difficult winter textile and garment enterprises, Gehui believes that in the aspect of export tax rebates, some textile and apparel Export tax rebate rate increased from 11% to 13%, but the state should further reflect the supportive efforts to prevent excessive deceleration of economic growth.
