Do you mean relative to the Eurasian (stable continental) frame or an absolute (e.g., ITRF) motion?
Typical published values: the Amur (Amurian) Plate moves roughly east–southeast at about 8–12 mm/year; a convenient representative value is ≈10 mm/year.
If you need a precise number, tell me the reference frame (Eurasia, North America, ITRF) or I can give a GPS/plate-model citation with the rotation pole and formal rate.
