China Government gives more favorable policies to Outsourcing Industry
China government is to carry on a series of incentives to boost the nation’s services outsourcing industry, such as tax rebates and credit support. In order to launch more favorable policies for the services outsourcing industry, the commerce ministry will work with related government departments such as the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Taxation.

In 2006, its offshore outsourcing revenue grew more than 40 percent to $1.4 million, but that still accounts for just 2 percent of the global market.
The China government will encourage multinational companies to set up services outsourcing operations in the nation and they are also welcome to set up joint ventures with Chinese outsourcing companies. The government will first promote some key regions like the Shanghai, Nanjing and Hangzhou Yangzi Delta area and Pearl River deltas. In addition, local governments will be encouraged to support major outsourcing companies in those regions.
Last year, The Ministry of Commerce launched a pilot project to develop 11 bases, including Beijing, shanghai, Dalian, Nanjing and Suzhou for services outsourcing across the country. All these are meant to attract 100 multinational corporations to transfer part of their outsourcing business and create 1,000 large-scale international services outsourcing companies. In recent years, outsourcing companies from all over the world have been expanding aggressively in China in order to take advantage of its low cost talent pool and take a slice of booming IT service market. One of the largest IT companies HP currently has some 2,700 engineers in China. Tata Consultancy Services which is one of India’s most powerful IT outfits established a new outsourcing joint venture in Beijing with Microsoft and three Chinese partners in February and it hope that its headcount in China can increase tenfold to 5,000 by 2010. Thus, it can become one of the largest players in the country.
