Many of the products we are using today are produced in China. In the past few years, trade between Australia and China has been strengthened. China is one of the world's largest economies. It plays an increasingly important role in the formation of the world economy, accounting for one third of the world's gross domestic product, accounting for the total import from 2000 to 2003 (The Economist 2004). There are 3 billion people living in various items, from foodstuffs to luxury goods, toys, clothing items, gifts, most automobile parts, to Australia, consuming various items.
Due to the free trade agreement with China, the economy is often unstable depending on the amount of trade between Australia and China. This is mainly because the economy is heavily dependent on the world market. This means that companies, employees and consumers are more likely to lower the economy. This could lead to a decline in GDP, a decline in domestic wages and a decrease in export demand in Australia, but even if the quality of imported goods and trade goods from China is low, Australian SMEs sell their products can not. Generally, the Australian labor force is far more expensive than the Chinese labor force, but the quality is usually much better. Different prices, Australian citizens tend to purchase Chinese products. This led to the closure of small and medium enterprises and the shift to the cheap labor force of large Australian companies.
Australia and China have traded goods with each other for years. Due to the content and quantity of transactions decided by the Australian government, the government plays an important role in this relationship between the two countries. The Australian and Chinese governments are doing a lot of discussions on trade relations and also considering free trade with each other. The Australian Chinese Business Council (ACBC) is an Australian business organization that has an impact on trade between the two countries and is trying to improve trade. ACBC has spread throughout Australia and has branches / industries in all the Australian states, providing information on activities and economics.
Trade is the exchange of goods and services between two or more parties. Trade can be done at the international or national level and may be done between different countries, different states, or just between states. In relation to China, Australia often exports large amounts of wool, iron and coal. Australia tends to import large amounts of computer accessories and industrial machinery from China. On April 18, 2005, Australia and China agreed to begin negotiations on a free trade agreement (FTA) after considering a feasibility study of the joint free trade agreement. The study was completed in March 2005 and concluded that both Australia and China will achieve great economic benefits through negotiations on free trade agreements. Australia's People's Republic of China Free Trade Agreement is a bilateral free trade agreement (FTA) between the Australian government and the Chinese government.
