New Zealand’s exporters are diverting shipments originally bound for China into other markets as demand from the country’s biggest trading partner cools, an official from the country’s central bank said Thursday.
紐西蘭央行1名官員週四表示，隨著該國最大貿易夥伴的需求減弱，紐西蘭出口商正在將原本銷往中國的貨物轉往其他市場。
“We’ve certainly seen many of our exporters looking at, and actively diverting, product that they would have been looking to put into China, into other markets as well,” said Karen Silk, assistant governor at the Reserve Bank of New Zealand. “It is not the only export market.”
紐西蘭儲備銀行助理總裁凱倫‧希爾克表示：「我們確實看到許多出口商正在考慮，或積極將原本打算銷往中國的產品，轉移到其他市場。中國並非唯一的出口市場。 」
Silk’s remarks reflect how the slowdown in China’s economy has rippled through to businesses elsewhere. Growth in the world’s second-largest economy slowed to multi-year lows in the second quarter, weighed down by tepid domestic demand and a prolonged real estate slump.
希爾克的談話反映出中國經濟放緩已波及其他國家的企業。受國內需求疲軟和房地產市場持續低迷拖累，這個全球第二大經濟體第2季經濟成長率放緩至多年來最低。
