Citations[edit]

I notice that there is only one citation within this article. With something as important as this, there must be citations to support what is represented, or it can simply be counted as original research.DETHREAPER (talk) 02:38, 22 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Versions[edit]

There is a dispute between two versions. To see the other version: [1], to compare: [2]

Disputed[edit]

Can someone make a problem statement detailing what this dispute is? SchmuckyTheCat 21:53, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)

SEZ is an arrangement within mainland China. — Insta ntnood 06:20, Mar 29, 2005 (UTC)

what country is that? SchmuckyTheCat 06:56, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)

The sovereign State is the PRC. SEZ is an economic arrangement within mainland China, as an economy. — Insta ntnood 07:55, Mar 29, 2005 (UTC)

do these even exist[edit]

I believe that starting in 2008 or 2009 china scrapped its existing corporate tax system including the 15% special rate for the economic zones and has gone to a 25% rate for everyone.Peppermintschnapps (talk) 19:12, 30 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

no, where are you getting this info? -----

The SEZs of China do still exist yes, but their significance have been altered as the chinese economy has opened up more and more. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.157.251.207 (talk) 13:42, 4 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Why is "List of SEZs" listed twice?[edit]

There is both a table and also a short section both labeled "List of SEZs", are these both needed? Is it possible to combine the two into one section or perhaps rename the sections? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.127.254.198 (talk) 11:29, 11 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

kashgar[edit]

why is there no mention of kashgar (added as SEZ may 2010)? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.126.210.99 (talk) 07:50, 22 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Repetition in introduction[edit]

"Special Economic Zones of the People's Republic of China (SEZs) are special economic zones located in mainland China." Also, this may not be accurate as Hainan is an island; i.e. not mainland China. If you are saying 'mainland China' in order to imply that Taiwan is the real China, it might be better to say PRC instead. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.9.7.31 (talk) 09:31, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The China Price[edit]

PROPOSE DELETION: What has the "China Price" section got to do with anything?

Sounds like someone trying to plug a book Jaredjeya (talk) 22:18, 27 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
