Aren't these all "Special" zones?
Nope, they're literally just downtown.
1 u/KazTheMerc 2d ago I know Shenzhen is. Shanghai HAS a Free Trade Zone, but it's only part. 2 u/cookingboy 2d ago No, your info is woefully outdated. Special economic zones don’t mean anything anymore. They meant something until the early 90s. Now entire China runs on state capitalism. 1 u/KazTheMerc 2d ago Huh. That's as of 2025. Learn something new every day!
