According to "Beijing Daily" reported that by the end of May, China State Post Bureau issued to Federal Express and UPS domestic express business license application for publicity, caused uproar in the aviation industry, the China Air Transport Association is carried out strongly against it.
Aviation Association Market Research Fellow Zhu Qingyu recently published an article that foreign companies such as access to domestic express business license, it will cause serious impact on China''s air cargo development. Zhu Qingyu noted that the international air transport industry is divided into nine kinds of traffic rights, which for an airline of another country since their arrival cities, and then connect to arrive franchise market countries in other cities, known as the "eighth freedom rights" . If the Chinese government approved FedEx and UPS domestic express business license, will make his disguise to get "the eighth freedom rights." But "so far," China and the US Eighth Air rights "are not yet open to the other side." The implication is very clear, if the above two foreign companies to obtain a license is a violation of traffic rights to China.
Historically, the global aviation industry for aviation companies to set up business in another country at the navigation outside the city are very concerned about, because thus allow other domestic aviation market expansion, and made ??unequal economic interests and to make tax relief range unequal.
"Our EMS to go to the United States to apply the same business certainly be banned, such as Europe, DHL, currently in the United States can not operate regional express, can only operate city express." Zhu Qingyu says, "which is very subtle, so we to State Post Bureau to submit our views and hope that they can learn. "
In fact, the reason for objection to the issuance of these two major international and domestic express delivery business license, it is also worried about his "to express in the name of the real line of air transportation," will be the already bleak living conditions of domestic air cargo companies to form a lethal blow. Zhu Qingyu analysis to FedEx, for example, its just a courier business in China, but he is behind the world''s largest air cargo companies. "Such enterprises to enter the Chinese market, how could no effect on the air transport industry."
For Aviation Association''s opposition, FedEx executives have innocently responded: "We started early domestic express business in China in 2007, but after 2009 the introduction of the new postal law, we need to apply for a new license, nothing more." domestic express delivery experts also believe that FedEx and UPS courier company''s identity only appeared in China in the form of charter air transportation, and the law on foreign-funded enterprises in China engaged in the courier business charter and without any restrictions. More comments that the federal, UPS express license to apply for the Chinese, like the wedding scene in the Air co-final opponents that appear suddenly to the approving authorities "say no."
Nevertheless, the Air Association of objections seem to have had the effect, it is now the General Post Office publicity release date has passed more than a month, but the two companies are still pending license. Insiders predict, because this is quite powerful Aviation Association opponents, foreign investment in order to obtain express license will be difficult in China.
