Beijing, May 1 (IANS) China has called for increasing imports and stabilising exports in order to promote a more balanced growth in foreign trade, a media report said Tuesday.

Import of consumer goods will also be increased "appropriately", the guideline said.
It said increased imports and balanced development of foreign trade will accelerate scientific and technological innovation and improve people's consumption.
