China's Economic Zone and STIPs

 

The fourth zone is the Coastal Economic Zone in the South, consisting of the provinces of Guangdong,Guangxi, Fujian, and Hainan, which, except for Fujian (East China), are all in South China. This area is where China first opened up to foreign countries.

With a solid foundation of more than 10 years, the coastal zone area will act as the bridge and window for foreign economic trades and as the base for earning foreign exchange through exports.

The fifth zone is the Economic Zone in the Middle Reaches of theYellow River(in North and Central China) and encompass es the provinces of Shanxi (located in the west of the Taihang Mountain Range), Shanxi (in the middle reaches of the Yellow River and the eastern part of Northwest China), Henan (in the middle-lower reaches of the Yellow River ), and the mid-western part of the Inner Mongolia AR.

This belt, with a combination of rich and high quality coal resources, possesses many favorable conditions to grow into a power base of energy resources and a heavy industrial zone.

The sixth zone is the Economic Zone in the upstream Part of the Yellow River and includesGansu Province, the Ningxia AR, andQinghai Province, all in Northwest China.

With a rich resource of water, this area will continue to increase the number of hydroelectric power stations, in order to become a base that will use water and electricity as the main energy. Besides, the food and feed industries will develop alongside the development of raw and processed materials.

The seventh zone is the Economic Zone in the Middle and Lower Reaches of the Yangtze River, made up of Hunan (Central China), Hubei (Central), Jiangxi (East), and Anhui (East) provinces.

With convenient transportation, this area will be built into an economic corridor, mainly based on the high water consumption industry as well as the important agricultural production base.
