按照党中央、国务院决策部署，商务部与财政部、人民银行、税务总局、银保监会、外汇局等部门密切协作，联合下发通知，通过加强普惠金融服务、发挥专项资金引导作用、优化出口退税办理等有针对性的财税金融支持举措，帮助相关行业企业有效应对疫情影响，推动行业复苏与高质量发展。	In accordance with the decision and plan by the Central Committee of the CPC and the State Council, the Ministry of Commerce, in close collaboration with the Ministry of Finance, the People’s Bank of China, the State Taxation Administration, the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, and the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, issued a notice to help enterprises in relevant industries to effectively cope with the impact of the epidemic and promote the recovery and high-quality development by strengthening inclusive financial services, leveraging the role special funds in guiding development, streamlining the process of export tax rebates and other targeted fiscal and financial support measures.

【束珏婷】:按照党中央、国务院决策部署，商务部近日发布了《关于加强“十四五”时期商务领域标准化建设的指导意见》，对“十四五”时期农产品流通等七个商务重点领域的标准化工作做出了具体规划，主要出于以下三方面考虑：	Shu Jueting: According to the deployment of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, MOFCOM recently released the Guidelines on Promoting Standardization of Business under the 14th Five-Year Plan. This Guidelines comes along with concrete plans for the standardization in seven key business areas during the period of the 14th Five-Year Plan including the circulation of agricultural products based on three considerations:
一是通过标准化提升重点民生领域商品和服务质量。	First, improving the quality of goods and services in key areas concerning people’s livelihood through standardization.
农产品流通、现代服务业等事关民生福祉。	Agricultural products circulation and modern service industry are closely related to people’s well-being.
《意见》提出在这些领域加快推进农产品市场、社区便利店、居民服务业等配套标准建设。	The Guidelines proposes to accelerate the standardized construction of supporting facilities such as agricultural product markets, community convenience stores and residential services in these key areas.
通过标准化推动企业全面提升产品和服务质量，使广大消费者选择更丰富、消费更放心，更好满足人民群众对美好生活的需要。	Through standardization, enterprises could provide products and services with higher qualities to consumers, who would then enjoy wider choices and reassuring shopping experiences, to better meet their aspirations for better lives.
二是通过标准化提升商贸流通效率水平。	Second, improving the efficiency of commercial circulation through standardization.
加强标准化建设有利于构建方便、快捷、安全的流通网络，提升流通效率，帮助商贸流通业降本增效。	Strengthening standardization is conducive to building a convenient, fast and safe circulation network, improving circulation efficiency, and helping the commercial circulation industry reduce cost and increase efficiency.
同时，针对国内国际双循环存在的堵点、痛点问题，《意见》将内外贸一体化单列为一个重点领域，支持开展标准化对外合作与交流，探索通过标准的桥梁和纽带联通国内国外两个市场，更好服务构建新发展格局。	At the same time, to unclog the domestic and international dual circulation system, the Guidelines singles out the domestic and foreign trade integration as one key area. It will support standardized international cooperation and exchanges and explore standardized connections between foreign and domestic markets to better serve the building of a new development paradigm.
三是通过标准化推动商贸流通创新规范发展。	Third, promoting innovative and standardized development of commercial circulation through standardization.
通过加强商贸流通数字化标准建设，顺应数字经济快速发展趋势，发挥标准的引领作用，以数字化转型推动商贸流通创新发展。 。	By strengthening the construction of digital standards for commercial circulation, we could follow the rapid development of digital economy and leverage the leading role of standards to promote the innovative development of commercial circulation through digital transformation.
同时，通过研究建立全流程的大数据管理标准，更好促进电子商务新业态新模式规范发展	In addition, by building whole-process big data management standards, we can advance the standardized development of new e-commerce business types and models.
关于您提到的第二个问题，在跨境电商方面，为引领行业健康发展，今年以来，我们组织各跨境电商综试区开展了“跨境电商规则与标准建设专项行动”。	On your second question, in order to lead the healthy development of cross-border e-commerce, since this year, we have led comprehensive cross-border e-commerce pilot zones to carry out the “special action for the construction of cross-border e-commerce rules and standards”.
北京、浙江、福建、广东、四川等地综试区积极参与起草国家标准。目前，已发布跨境电商领域国家、行业、地方、团体和企业标准共计41项，其中国家标准11项，初步形成了适应跨境电商发展的标准体系。	Pilot zones in Beijing, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, Sichuan, etc. actively participated in the drafting of national standards. At present, 41 national, industrial, local, group and enterprise standards for cross-border e-commerce have been issued, among which 11 are national standards. A preliminary standard system in favor of cross-border e-commerce development has taken shape.
下一步我们将继续推进相关工作。	In the next step, we will continue to work on this.
