Abstract

Since the Belt and Road Initiative was proposed by Xi Jinping, the ASEAN-China Free Trade Area has been increasingly upgrading. In this background, this article thoroughly analyses the complementation of the aquatic trade between China and ASEAN based on the HS classification, by calculating the Grubel-Lloyd Intra-Industry Trade Index, Bruelhart Marginal Intra-Industry Trade Index successively. The results show that the aquatic trade is mainly inter-industry trade and overall, the aquatic trade between China and ASEAN is more complementary than competitive and has great potential.
