政府工作报告（十七）

进一步扩大对外开放，更好地利用国内国外两个市场、两种资源。要转变贸易增长方式，注重优化进出口结构，努力改善进出口不平衡状况。支持具有自主知识产权、自主品牌、高附加值的产品和服务产品出口，继续控制高耗能、高污染和资源性产品出口。推动加工贸易转型升级和合理布局。适当扩大进口，增加先进技术、关键设备和国内短缺资源进口。继续积极有效利用外资，着力提高利用外资质量。扩大服务领域对外开放。支持有条件的企业“走出去”，按照国际通行规则对外投资和跨国经营，在境外建立加工基地、营销服务网络和研发机构。建立政策支持和服务体系，完善境外投资协调机制和风险控制机制。

We will open still wider to the outside world and make better use of domestic and international markets and resources. We need to change the pattern of growth of foreign trade, improve the mix of imports and exports, and correct the imbalance between imports and exports. We will support the export of service products and high value-added products with Chinese intellectual property rights and trademarks and continue to control the export of highly polluting products, resource products and products that consume excessive quantities of energy. We will speed up the process of upgrading the processing trade and improving the geographical distribution of the processing trade industry. Imports will be expanded by a suitable amount, particularly imports of advanced technology, key equipment and resources that China lacks. We will continue to make energetic and effective use of foreign capital and strive to improve its performance. We will further open the service sector to foreign competition. We will support qualified enterprises in going global, making overseas investments, conducting international business in conformance with general international practices, and establishing processing centers, marketing and service networks and R&D centers in other countries. We will institute a policy support and service system and improve the mechanisms for coordinating overseas investment and risk management.

今年，我国加入世贸组织过渡期将基本结束，要增强做好各项应对工作的紧迫感。进一步完善涉外经济管理体制和机制，提高贸易和投资便利化水平。运用世贸组织规则，支持重点产业提高抗风险能力和国际竞争力。健全应对贸易争端的有效机制，妥善处理贸易摩擦。有步骤、有重点地推进区域经济合作和自由贸易区谈判。在世贸组织新一轮谈判中发挥建设性作用。

Since the transitional period for China's accession to the WTO will basically end this year, we need to heighten our sense of urgency to be sure we complete all related work. We will improve the system and mechanisms for managing foreign economic activities to better facilitate trade and investment. We will make use of WTO rules to make key sectors more risk-resistant and more competitive internationally. We will make the mechanism for dealing with trade disputes more efficient and handle trade frictions properly. We will carry out negotiations on regional economic cooperation and free trade zones in a step-by-step and focused manner. We will play a constructive role in the new round of WTO talks.

（七）高度重视解决涉及群众切身利益的问题

7. Paying close attention to solving problems related to the vital interests of the people

我们要牢记执政为民的宗旨，坚持一切为了人民。要抓紧解决广大群众最关心、最直接、最现实的利益问题，尤其要切实做好就业、社保、医疗、安全生产等工作。

We must always keep in mind our obligation to run the government for the people and do everything for their benefit. We need to promptly solve practical problems concerning public interests that the people are most concerned about and that affect them most directly. In particular, we must do a good job in work related to employment, social security, medical care and production safety.

继续实施积极的就业政策，千方百计扩大就业。进一步解决体制转轨遗留的下岗失业人员再就业问题和重组改制、关闭破产企业的职工安置问题。国有企业下岗失业人员再就业扶持政策再延长三年，并根据各地实际将适用范围逐步扩大到城镇集体企业下岗职工。加大对军工、森工等困难行业下岗职工再就业的支持力度。中央财政今年安排再就业补助资金251亿元，比上年增加42亿元。地方财政也要增加这方面的投入。重视做好高等学校毕业生就业、退役军人的安置工作，搞好城镇新增劳动力和进城农民工就业工作。加强职业培训和就业服务体系建设。切实维护劳动者的合法权益。
