The ninth zone is the Economic Development Zone in Northwest China'sXinjiangAR.
Occupying one-sixth of China's territory, and with a rich supply of petroleum as well as mineral resources, this zone will focus on the development of the petroleum chemical industry, and will accelerate the development of agriculture and stockbreeding along with the processing industry.
The tenth zone is the Tibet Special Economic Zone. Due to the differences in climate and geography, Southwest China's Tibet AR has been developed slower than other parts of China. Therefore, Tibet, as a special region, still needs the government's support both in finance and policy, in order to modernize its economic system as soon as possible.
National Science & Technology Industrial Parks of China
In the past century, the fast advancement of science and technology and the enormous growth of the economy have brought about unprecedented progress and profound social changes in human civilization. Based on advanced technology and sustained innovation, high-tech industries have made the swift transformation of knowledge into products while at the same time becoming the most dynamic element of the knowledge economy.
At the beginning of the 1990s, to meet the challenges of the new technological revolution, the Chinese government made a strategic decision to speed up the development of high-tech industries, hence the creation of China's own National Science and Technology Industrial Parks (STIPs).
