● China has long been a major trading partner, export market and import source of Australia, accounting for about one-third of its total exports and one-quarter of its total imports in 2022; Australia is China's sixth largest trading partner.

● The economy is developed, the people have high incomes and strong consumption capacity, and the median weekly wage of full-time adult workers is 1,600 Australian dollars (about 7,500 yuan).

● Light industry is backward, and consumer goods are mainly imported.

● The economies of China and Australia are highly complementary. China has strong trade complementarity with Australia in capital-intensive and labor-intensive products, and has significant comparative advantages.

Australia and China have great potential for economic and trade cooperation. As Australia's demand for various consumer goods and light industrial products continues to increase, it has great complementarity with China's import projects.
