CRI听力:China to Boost Manufacturing Equipments Export in 2015

China's export sector is expected to be dominated by railway equipment and nuclear power technology in 2015.

The National Development and Reform Commission says China's export of manufacturing equipment in 2014 was worth more than 300 billion US dollar, nearly 20 percent of the overall export total. The export of railway products was valued at nearly 4 billion dollars in 2014.

Wang Xiaotao, the Deputy Director of the NDRC, says that in the coming year, China plans to further push forward railway exports as China has many advantages in this area.

"First of all, our systematic integration technique is complete and mature, which is one of our advantages. We also have other prominent advantages in cost, delivery time, quality and cost performance ratio. Last but not least, by absorbing and digesting all kinds of new technologies, we've mastered a variety of production capacity under different standards. This is also a big step ahead of our competitors."

In reference to the promotion of nuclear power technology overseas, Wang says China will strengthen measures concerning designing, construction, equipment supply and maintenance in this sector.

On Thursday, China and Argentina signed a deal to build a nuclear power plant for the South American country, which is a good start for China to seek international coordination and cooperation in this sector.
