Dr. Singh's comment on this article
Dr. Singh has reviewed this Wikipedia page, and provided us with the following comments to improve its quality:
The article is extremely uneven.
Some countries are treated in way too much detail, others get a line or two of description (though often with links to country-specific articles).
The main problem is that there is almost no conceptual framework or summary evaluation of SEZs, or cross-country comparison.
We hope Wikipedians on this talk page can take advantage of these comments and improve the quality of the article accordingly.

Not just in China
Not that I "know very far", but as far as I know, this term is applied not just in China; I've changed the introduction to reflect this. I don't know how much of the main body is China-specific, however. Maybe someone can help with that now o/?

When the article addresses "some countries," the statement is vague and can be misleading when targeting "Chinese labor camps." Furthermore, in addressing this perspective as a concern, perhaps a separate section could be added regarding global and domestic critiques of SEZs, if they pose such an importance. Additionally, there should be information added regarding the effects of the several forms of SEZs mentioned. More in-depth examples of different countries could be added, including the specific laws, quotas, or tariffs involved, as well as their consequences, both positive and negative.

Free economic zones (FEZ), free economic territories (FETs) or free zones (FZ) are a class of special economic zone (SEZ) designated by the trade and commerce administrations of various countries. The term is used to designate areas in which companies are taxed very lightly or not at all to encourage economic activity. The taxation rules are determined by each country. The World Trade Organization (WTO) Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures (SCM) has content on the conditions and benefits of free zones.
