3.3 Using Private Sector to Lead the Development of E-commerce
In China, the principle part, which leads the development of E-commerce actually, is ambiguous if it is not the government. By now it is little doubtless that MII (Ministry of Information Industry) plays a main role in governing the Internet in China, which is one of the departments of Chinese Central Government. With its empower CNNIC (China Internet Network Information Center) began to regulate Chinese Internet, which is called non-profit organization. Actually CNNIC works to allot domain names, IP numbers, and solve any dispute from them, hence CNNIC is the sole party in leading the Internet development, which is directly controlled by MII. Even those ISPs, which are the ChinaNet, CERNET, CSTNET, China GBNet, and UniNet, are national corporations so they are influenced by the government.
It is little bad to lead the Internet development by public sectors, which are mostly non-profit, in current Chinese situation. Because public sectors dominate more resource and information than those private ones they can layout the development of Internet in a long-term plan. Similarly since the complex situation in China it is difficult to satisfy each class or region. It is therefore an overburden task for private sectors to carry out currently. Meanwhile Chinese government has to pursue new more applicable regulation and permit private sectors to be more important because government deeply involved in economic area is definitely improper if the Chinese present circumstance has not been considered roundly.
4.Conclusion
Although, according to an IDC (International Data Corp) report, “China has become Asia-Pacific region’s second-largest IT market, and it is poised to poised to overtake Australia to become the largest in the region” it is involved with some issues, which are indicated above mainly. In fact Chinese current E-commerce regulation, Internet as well, is criticized by many different interests entities, some of them are foreign investors. Despite the fact that these issues a little impact the foreign investors’ enthusiasm presently with little double it is still workable and suitable for the reality, subsequently it is enhancing the development of E-commerce. While on the other hand it is worth retaliating that these regulations will impact the development of E-commerce really, if there is no change being made when the situation is changed latterly.
Because China has entered this new developing economic area later than those developed countries any problem, even simple, is a new issue for it, which has never been knew by Chinese government. For those reasons mentioned above, Chinese government does not want to copy the American regulations directly so it is understandable to regulate Internet with some problems if those regulations are very good. It is also proved that those regulations are feasible by the delightful statistic.
