BF is proud to introduce the Australian China Expo 2016 (ACE 2016) into our annual event calendar. As China’s demand for Australia’s premium products and services continues to grow, and develops Australia’s SME market. ABF has been heavily involved in supporting and facilitating the Australia-China relationship with a focus on SMEs in Australia. ABF has over the past nine years established the major national Sino-Australia Business Forum Australia China BusinessWeek (ACBW), which is now presented in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide and Hobart. ACBW 2016 China is also presented this year on 8-11th September in Xiamen, China. I recommend ACBW 2016 for Australian companies engaged or seeking to enter the China market.

For the SME business sector, the B2BEXPO is the first of an annual event and together with the B2B Seminar Series provides an excellent platform for small business. ABF looks forward to expanding the B2BEXPO over the coming years and providing small business with the latest trends, solutions and showcase of the latest products and services. I thank all our exhibitors and attendees in joining us and making both B2BEXPO and Australia China EXPO 2016 a success and to acknowledge and thank the following sponsors for their support: American Express, Oracle, AusFocus, Australia-China Expo Council, ACES, jobactive, AusIndustry, Mercedes Benz Sydney, ServCorp, Austrade, Inside Small Business, Smart Company, and other media partners, and thank the NSW Government for their ongoing support.

China Digital Conference 2016 Sydney

here are over 300 million Chinese consumers connected online and spending continues to grow exponentially, in 2015, the Chinese online retail sales reached $589 billion.

Paving the way By Ray Evans, Founder & CEO, Australian Business Forum

While China offers many opportunities for Australian small businesses, it is not an easy market to understand and penetrate – but help is at hand, thanks to Australian Business Forum initiatives.

“Understanding cultural and business knowledge is especially important in China.” RAY EVANS Founder & CEO, Australian Business Forum

nderstanding the vast China market, and how business can take advantage of the opportunities it offers, is something most Australian businesses have yet to realise. As China’s economic and cultural relationship with Australia continues to grow, it has become increasingly important for Australian businesses to understand how their business can interact and attain Chinese clients or consumers. Following the launch of the ChinaAustralia Free Trade Agreement in December, Australian businesses have unprecedented access to the market, with nearly 96% of goods now able 24

to enter China tariff-free. While this presents an enormous opportunity for businesses already engaged in that market, it does not guarantee success in such a competitive environment. Consistently, the two barriers to success in China for small Australian businesses, centre around the lack of knowledge and lack of networks.

Understanding cultural and business knowledge is important to any international market-entry strategy, but is especially important in China where forging personal relationships is often the precursor to securing business deals. Similarly, creating a network in business and government circles in China is imperative for success. HELP AT HAND For small business, investing time and capital into improving knowledge and networks can be difficult with limited resources, which means many small companies struggle when entering the market. Recognising these issues, the Australian Business Forum (ABF) has sought to address this through its business platform. For 10 years, ABF has been co-ordinating initiatives that focus on improving knowledge of the Chinese market, and fostering networking opportunities for small business.

ABF BULLETIN JUNE ISSUE

ABF has produced events such as Australia China BusinessWeek, China Digital Conference and China Lunch Club, which are held across Australia and China, attending thousands of small businesses each year. These events are complemented by ABF’s four central hubs: ABF Event, ABF Digital Media, ABF Corporate Club and ABF Business, platforms that promote Australian small business to a wider audience. This approach has created a valuable and inexpensive gateway for Australian small business to interact with the China market. With an audience profile evenly split between Australian small businesses, Australia-based Chinese businesses, inbound investors and business from mainland China, the ABF platform has been able to help build networks and assist with marketing.

‘This approach has created a valuable and inexpensive gateway for Australian small business to interact with the China market.’ NEW EXPOS ABF is dedicated in providing the Australian SME Business Sector with high profile events to showcase products and services in both Australia an China. Following the inaugural B2BEXPO and Australia China EXPO in Melbourne and Sydney, ABF will be returning to China in September with the ABF Australian Pavilion at CIFIT in Xiamen on the 8-11th September. This is an excellent opportunity to connect with potential Chinese clients

and develop brands in China. Last year, over 100,000 visitors attended with thirty-two provinces and sixty countries participating. This is one of a few major events in China where visitors are able to meet representatives from all Chinese provinces in one place and provides an unique opportunity. ABF will also be presenting ACBW 2016 China Mission also to Xiamen following last year when seventy-five delegates attended. If you are engaged with or about to enter the China market, I strongly recommend attending CIFIT 2016.

Understanding the Chinese Consumer By Benjamin Sun, Co-Founder & Director of Think China

arketers need to understand that the difference between the China and Australia markets is not only about the “Great Firewall” and language barriers, but more importantly, the consumer motivations and behaviours. In other words, why do they buy?

the rising global economy in the 1950s and 1960s, consumption behaviour of China’s parents reflect their desire to enhance the lives of their children, and subsequently their own lives, by providing products and opportunities that they may, in the past, have been denied.

One important fact is the Chinese government’s implementation of the one-child policy in 1979. Demographers estimate that the policy averted at least 200 million births between 1979 and 2009. From an online marketing perspective, it is important to recognize that the majority of China’s online consumers between ages 20 to 40 are from those only-child families.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN TO MARKETERS?

For the parents and grandparents (post-50s) of the ‘one-child’ children, having lived through The Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution, they consider it an imperative to improve the conditions and experience for their children. Similar to parents in post-WWII America and Europe who wanted their children to benefit from

The 20 to 40 age group presents is a huge market and, unlike their elders, they are more willing to try new things, to indulge in luxury goods, are more brand conscious and more receptive to foreign ideas. The older generation are hesitant to spend money on themselves, but are more compelled to buy for the benefit of their child/ grandchild. One way to reach China’s older generation, one could argue, and as many local companies and increasingly more foreign enterprises are beginning to realise, may be by appealing to the Confucian values of respect for family elders; adopting an indirect marketing strategy.

Today, spending within the Chinese family is bottlenecked; ‘Post-50s’ are more financially secure, generating more disposable income, and allocating these funds directly to support their only-child or grandchild. It is important for Australian marketers to understand this social phenomenon in order to create more effective marketing campaigns to target their relevant audience.

jobactive helping employers find the right staff to fit their business

ecruiting staff can be time consuming and costly, and it can be difficult to find the right person. This is where jobactive can help— jobactive is a recruitment service that can help you find the right staff, with no cost to your business. Your local jobactive provider can screen and shortlist job-ready candidates for you, provide support after your new employee starts work and as they settle into a job, and provide access to wage subsidies, if you hire an eligible job seeker. This includes up to $10,000 if you hire an eligible mature age job seeker. The type of support jobactive offers you can also be tailored depending on your business and your recruitment needs. jobactive providers want to make sure that the person you hire is the person who stays with you—helping that person get a sustainable job, and

helping you keep your turnover rate down and keep your focus on running your business. Last year when Children’s Services Director at Primary OSHCare Suzanne Blythin found herself looking for a new HR manager, she decided to contact her local jobactive provider to see what help they could provide for her familyowned organisation. Within a day of meeting with a jobactive provider, Suzanne had already received a résumé that was perfect aligned with what she had discussed. And the ongoing benefit for Suzanne is that her new HR manager is now using jobactive to keep up with the demanding recruitment needs of the business. As a result they’ve filled 20 positions across Primary OSHCare’s 32 centres in NSW. “Working with [our jobactive provider] has been really good for us,” Suzanne says.

“Our staff are required to have safety and certificate checks completed as well, and they do all this on our behalf. It saves us a lot of time and money…” jobactive also offers online services and an app that can help you manage your own vacancies. Through the jobactive website, you can: •

Advertise job vacancies at no cost

2 Lesser-Known Reasons Behind Ecommerce’s Rise in China By Mark Tanner, CDC 2016 Forum Chair; Founder & MD, Shanghai China Skinny

sk a Chinese consumer about shopping, and around half will instinctively think about doing it online. A typical online shopper in China shops online three times more frequently than the global average according to PWC research. Many have heard the buzz around China’s massive ecommerce numbers such as the 417 million shoppers spending $250 billion a year; the $14.3 billion spent in 24 hours on Single’s Day and the 1.7 million logistics staff who delivered them. But it’s not until you are on the street in China and experiencing it, that you truly appreciate it. Consumers in stores, in offices, on

public transport and almost everywhere are constantly on their smartphones perusing products and reviews. City streets are crowded with fully laden delivery men on electric bikes, and office foyers and workstations are piled high with packages bought online. The world’s largest ecommerce market didn’t happen by accident; there are a series of interrelated factors that have driven China’s soaring adoption of online shopping. Although the wellknown factors such as convenience,

range, poor physical retail infrastructure, price comparisons and deals (35% of online sales are discounted versus 14% of goods bought in physical stores) all drove adoption, here are a couple of the lesser known contributors to the enormous popularity of ecommerce in China: 1. TRUST Although ecommerce has a reputation for peddlers of fakes, most of this occurs on the C2C platform Taobao. The faster-growing B2C platforms such as Tmall or JD require the licensed trademark holder or a nominated party to sell products, meaning the likelihood of buying a fake is much lower than other channels in China. And if you do buy a fake, you can get refunds as B2C retailers must hold money in trust for such complaints. There are also the consequences of negative reviews, which are detrimental to online stores. All this contributes to online stores being more trusted than traditional stores.

customer service feedback. If a vendor provides great service from end-to-end, it is likely they will get positive feedback meaning their store will rank higher in searches. There is not a similar incentive to provide such feedback in most physical retail stores, meaning Chinese consumers are actually more loyal to ecommerce platforms than any other brand or retailer in China, which has helped drive sales. THE FUTURE OF ECOMMERCE IN CHINA The above factors will only become stronger, assisted with increased Government support and some remarkable innovation, particularly in China’s O2O space, ensuring that China’s ecommerce growth will continue for some time yet. Whilst the opportunities for ecommerce are significant in China, it is a hotlycontested channel with more than 8 million vendors on Taobao alone. Companies such as China Skinny can ensure you stand out from the crowd.

2.SERVICE The experience in a physical retail store in China is typically very poor. Whereas ecommerce service in China is among the best in the world. 80% of Chinese consumers will ask the vendor a question before buying online and if responses aren’t immediate, the shopper will just go to one of the other countless vendors. A significant factor in rankings on ecommerce platform search results is

New ombudsman to support small business and family enterprise By office of the Australian Small Business and Family Enterprise

he Office of the Australian Small Business and Family Enterprise Ombudsman (ASBFEO) commenced on 11 March this year. Former CEO of the Australian Chamber, Ms Kate Carnell, was appointed to the Ombudsman role. The role of the ASBFEO is to advocate for small businesses and family enterprises, to provide access to dispute resolution services, and to ensure that government policies take into account the needs of small businesses and family enterprises. The ASBFEO has recently launched a new and innovative online platform called thinkBIGsmallTALK to engage directly with small businesses and family enterprises, and to find out from them what they would like the office to focus on as their advocate.

The interactive website is a dynamic digital forum that allows users to not only put forward their views and opinions, but to rate the ideas of others and offer practical measures that will positively shape the Australian small business and family enterprise landscape. A discussion paper has also been launched, which contains ideas about the kinds of topics the small business community may be interested in raising with the ASBFEO.

Australian Government support for business By AusIndustry

he Department of Industry, Innovation and Science through AusIndustry provides Australian businesses with information and advice to help them innovate, grow and be competitive. The National Innovation and Science Agenda (NISA) is a blueprint for transforming Australia into a leading innovation nation, right up there with the likes of Israel, Singapore and the Republic of Korea. Australia is fortunate to have the key ingredients needed to turn this vision into a reality: •

STRONG ECONOMIC FUNDAMENTALS AND A STABLE INVESTMENT CLIMATE

•

DIRECT ACCESS TO MARKETS IN ASIA – THE WORLD’S ECONOMIC ENGINE ROOM

•

GLOBAL REPUTATION AS A TRUSTED SOURCE OF GOODS AND SERVICES

•

HOME TO SOME OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH ORGANISATIONS IN THE WORLD.

Innovation and science are absolutely critical for Australia to deliver new sources of growth, maintain high

wage jobs and seize the next wave of economic prosperity. AusIndustry supports NISA by connecting businesses to specific government assistance programmes, like the Entrepreneurs’ Programme and the R&D Tax Incentive. The R&D Tax Incentive is the Government’s single largest investment in business innovation and is a vital part of the effort to support growth and new opportunities. Businesses in nearly every sector of the economy benefit annually from the programme and the support it provides in offsetting some of the costs of undertaking research and development (R&D). Australian companies such as Huon Aquaculture, the successful Tasmanian company recognised for being the premium producer of fresh and smoked salmon products, have benefitted from rapid growth as a result of innovation. By conducting R&D to overcome challenges unique to the Australian environment, the company has benefitted from R&D tax assistance for over fifteen years and now employs more than 450 highly skilled people across Australia.

The Entrepreneurs’ Programme uses experienced advisers and facilitators, drawn from industry, to ensure businesses get the advice and support needed to improve their competitiveness, productivity and to seek growth opportunities. Practical support for businesses, researchers and entrepreneurs includes: tailored advice from people with relevant private sector experience, co-funded grants to commercialise novel intellectual property in the form of new products, processes and services, funding to take advantage of growth opportunities, and connection and collaboration opportunities. Eligible businesses may also receive financial assistance in the form of matched funding grants to help support projects and implementation initiatives. Businesses seeking more information about government information and services for all Australian businesses, industry and industry sectors should take a look at business.gov.au - a single hub of information. For more information, visit business. gov.au or call 13 28 46.

跨境电商角逐“一带一路 One Belt One Road”

“

一带一路”是指“丝绸之路经济带”和“21世纪海上丝绸之路”的简称，是中国对外主要经济战略。一带一路是指主动发展国际合作伙伴关系的一种发展理念。根据中国经济网2016年最新数据显示，截至2015年底，我国与“一带一路”相关国家贸易额约占进出口总额的四分之一，投资建设了50多个境外经贸合作区，承包工程项目突破3000个。 2015年，我国企业共对“一带一路” 相关的49个国家进行了直接投资，投资额同比增长18.2%。2015年，我国承接“一带一路”相关国家服务外包合同金额178.3亿美元，执行金额 121.5亿美元，同比分别增长42.6%和 23.4%。

中西方电商合作，将为国际贸易合作提供更为便捷的交流环境，实现各国的开放自由贸易。 2015年“双十一”时，中国消费者在电商平台疯狂消费了1000亿人民币，约合200亿澳元。

网站全球速卖通、海外淘宝的商品正以中国为核心经过“一带一路”沿线国家的线下物流，流通辐射到周边的东南亚、俄罗斯、东欧、中亚等国家。在2015年，阿里巴巴成立了澳洲分部，澳洲最大保健品网站Chemist Warehouse淘宝店也陆续开张。京东也开设了“澳洲馆”，与葡萄酒庄 Treasury Wine Estates签订协议，每年承销35万支Penfolds红酒。为了帮助澳大利亚企业更好的了解中国市场和线上拓展，澳大利亚商务论坛也在4月28日及6月2日分别在墨尔本和悉尼举办中国数码峰会，邀请了包括目前中国领先线上运营公司之一China Skinny的Mark Tanner先生为大家带来最新中国市场运营解析和趋势分析。

在新华网2015年报道中，中国国际贸易促进委员会副会长王锦珍介绍了“一带一路”政策下跨境电商情况，２０１４年中国跨境电商交易规模为４．２亿元人民币，预计到２０１６年将达到６．５万亿元人民币。“一带一路”下的 50

中国新型消费阶层的崛起？

亚

洲逐渐增长的收入正创造出一批新的消费者。这个消费阶层绝大多数都产生于中国，基于现在中国的工作人口已经远高于欧美的工作人群。随着中国消费者购买力的升高，他们的需求和喜好也成为了全球经济一个很重要的影响因素。

他们是谁

的年收入。他们的需求和购买力会随着中国的发展持续上升。

城市中产

根据中国国家统计局、高盛全球投资研究的数据表明，中国有近1亿4千万的中产阶级，他们的年收入大约为1万2 千美金。他们中间有近一半的人为近年受中国收入上涨政策影响的人群。

上。随着可支配收入的增加，消费也跟着改变。但负担能力，尤其对于城市中轨阶层来说，仍然是一个问题。随着消费水平的提高，中国消费者开始更多关注身心健康及家庭教育。这些方面对于一个有老龄化人口的国家来说尤其重要。中国政府在过去十年也一直增长对于健康产品的补助。根据上图可

根据2013年中国国家统计局、高盛全球投资研究、美国国防部和美国劳工统计局的数据看，中国消费市场现在主要被为数不多的中产阶级占有。但只有不到2%的群体收入达到了需要纳税的标准。因此现在我们看到的中国仅仅就是将来世界发展的冰山一角。中国的消费群体基本可以分为四个等级，而将来发展的主要力量将集中在“ 城市中产”的白领和“城市主体”的蓝领阶层上。

金字塔顶

中国最富有的人是影响全球高端产品需求的主要力量。根据中国国家统计局、高盛全球投资研究的数据显示，这140 万的高端收入人群每年拥有50万美金

城市中轨

这部分消费者是由蓝领和一些到城市寻求更高收入的农民工组成。根据中国国家统计局、高盛全球投资研究的数据，这部分群体大约为2亿4千万，他们的年均收入大约为6千美金。这部分群体有望看到中国收入的最大幅度提升。这也会让他们在除必需品花费的额外花费显著提高。

农民工

这部分工作人群消费较低，人口基本为 3亿9千万，其年均收入仅为2千美金。他们的收入基本维持其日常支出。

消费模式

食物和服装占中国个人消费的一半以

知，从2004年到2011年，在保健市场中中国消费者个人人均消费由50美元上涨到近90美元。

电子商务

低汽车保有量限制了消费者的移动性，但随着移动互联网的广泛使用，低运费和网上的低价销售增多，中国的电子商务市场在近年腾飞。中国消费市场近年已经显著增长，娱乐产业、健康产品与服务仍有巨大增长空间。目前，中国只有11%的人口达到了中产阶层。由于这个队伍正在逐渐扩大，其对将来全球经济的影响也会不同。但是，企业还是需要了解中国的城市主体和城市中产阶级来调整定位、产品及价格，以满足他们的需求。 WWW.ABF.EVENTS

李克强总理决定推动《中国制造2025》与“互联网+”融合发展 “中国制造2025”是中国工业未来10 年的发展纲领，概念由2014年12月首次提出，以实现中国由制造业大国到制造业强国的转变。中国计划用三个十年来实现此目标， “中国制造2025” 是“三步走”的第一步，将指导中国进入全球制造业的第二方阵。“中国制造2025”主要围绕创新驱动、智能转型、绿色发展展开。

工业4.0 对全球经济意味着什么

工业4.0：互联网+制造业工业4.0是继第三次工业革命—“信息革命”后的第四次工业革命，也就是现在常用的“物理信息融合”，核心就是“互联网+”。互联网技术紧密的将市场和企业相连接，消费者提出要求，制造者根据要求设计出产品，降低了产销之间的信息不对称，催生出“C2B 商业模式”。而工业4.0是实现这一模式关键环节，工业4.0代表了“互联网 +制造业”的智能生产，能够真正实现“C2B2C”的商业模式。

根据世界经济论坛的工业互联网的调查报告，超过74%的受访企业认为工业4.0对最优化配置资产、减少运营成本、提高员工生产率、创造新利润等“非常或极其重要”。据估计，到2030年，与不采用工业4.0技术相比，工业4.0可以使全球GDP多增加 15万亿美元，亚太地区多增加约4.2万亿美元。

税改来袭：跨境电商与代购的存亡考验？

重磅消息：2016年3月24日，中国财政部、海关总署、国家税务总局正式发布《关于跨境电子商务零售进口税收政策的通知》。我国将于4月8日正式实施跨境电子商务零售（企业对消费者，即B2C）进口税收政策，并同步调整行邮税政策。 “此政策对于跨境电商有何影响？”“ 什么产品受税改价格将会上调？” “ 对于购买哪些产品的消费者成本将会上升？”“代购热潮是否将就此泯灭？” ，政策一出，双轨制下各方疑问接踵而来——针对这些问题，澳大利亚商务论坛（Australian Business Forum）今天整理了相关专家及行业信息，将简要分析新税改如下。

一、跨境电商面对税改的第一反应新规出台后，赶在4月8日政策实行节点前，海淘、天猫、聚美优品等众所周知的跨境电商纷纷展开大型促销活动，解决库存积压。其中疯狂促销主要集中在：母婴产品、保健品与化妆品类。

二、那么新税改到底规定了什么据中华人民共和国财政部关税司原文颁布，为营造公平竞争的市场环境，促进跨境电子商务健康发展，经国务院批准，自2016年4月8日起，我国跨境电子商务零售进口商品将不再按邮递物品征收行邮税，而是按货物征收关税和进口环节增值税、消费税。

同时，因保留行邮税，并取消行邮税费 50元以内免税等政策，跨境电商与近年异常火热的个人代购，在此次双轨制改革下，都将面临需要重新洗牌的严峻形势。

需要注意的是本次颁布的“新税率”只是短期内的暂行政策，而一旦限额以下的增值税和消费税的临时优惠结束，进口关税的减免被取消，新的税率还将上涨。

四、跨境电商的机遇与挑战

根据新税改后的税率计算，单价在 500元以下的原本处于免征额度内的商品将受影响较大，如食品、保健品、奶粉和纸尿裤等，这类商品通过跨境进口方式消费者成本将升高。但对于高档化妆品而言，调整后的税率相比调整前的行邮税税率，消费者成本降低。因此，跨境电商平台及代购纷纷以新税改为噱头清理相关积累库存，根据税改价格调整了采购清单。

新规颁布后，税收双轨制下，“天猫国际、京东全球购等大的电商平台，可能会采取与供应商积极协调、重新整合供应链、减少货物品类、优化成本等方式积极应对，跨境电商进口产品的价格不一定会与综合税率的提高线性相关。” 有多年跨境电商从业经验的深圳市星空物语科技有限公司总经理梅星星说道，但一二十人甚至更小的跨境电商团队，则可能会面临重新洗牌。“这些小团队因为在供应链上议价能力弱，最终可能被兼并或被淘汰。” 而跨境电子商务企业对企业（B2B）进口，虽仍按照现行有关税收政策执行，整个跨境商务行业的洗牌，预计也将一定程度波及到B2B企业的相关

三、如何解读新税改鉴于诸多外国品牌皆通过跨境贸易和代购渠道销售产品，澳大利亚商务论坛特地于2016年4月28日的中国数码峰会（China Digital Conference），请来中国著名市场营销、市场研究及数字营销机构China Skinny，对此次新税率及其个中影响作出分析。以下是此次分析的简要图解。
