The financial crisis caused by the sub-prime crisis of U.S. has swept the world, and China is no exception. In China, the low import and export manufacturing enterprises of coastal areas has been hit in the first place. In order to help coastal areas shake off the impact of financial crisis, our Government has proposed a strategy that manufacturing industry in eastern coastal areas shift to the mainland and the coastal areas commence industrial-upgrading. In 2009, the found of the first inland Bonded Port Area of China who is also the only one by now - Chongqing Cuntan Bonded Port Area - is a response to this strategy.
