2004-2005年度中国外商投资企业500强排行榜已于近日出炉。据商务部外资司相关排名资料显示,年度中国外资企业销售额500强中制造业领域占八成,专家认为该状况依然与中国属于劳动力密集型国家有关。而排行榜中还有一个值得注意的情况是,来自素有“避税天堂”之称的维尔京群岛投资企业数量居第3位。据介绍,外商投资企业500强排行榜是以参加外商投资企业联合年检企业上报的2004年度的销售数据为排名依据。 The Top 500 Foreign-Funded Enterprises in China 2004-2005 has been released recently. According to the relevant ranking data of Foreign Investment Department of the Ministry of Commerce, the manufacturing sector in the top 500 foreign-funded enterprises in the year accounted for 80% of the manufacturing sector, and experts believe the situation is still related to the fact that China is a labor-intensive country. And there's a noteworthy point in the leaderboard that ranks No. 3 in the Virgin Islands investment company known as “Tax Haven”. According to reports, the list of top 500 foreign-invested enterprises is based on the 2004 annual sales data submitted by the joint annual inspection enterprises participating in the foreign-invested enterprises.
