From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Kunming High-tech Industrial Development Zone is a state-level high-tech industrial zone established in 1992 in Northwest Kunming, Yunnan Province, China. It is administratively under Kunming Prefecture. It covers an area of 9 square kilometers. The zone is located in the northwest part of Kunming city, four kilometers from Kunming Railway Station and five kilometers from Kunming International Airport.

Yunnan province has rich deposits of phosphorus, salt, aluminum, copper, lead, zinc, tin and is famous for its production of Yunnan tea, coffee, rubber, and tobacco. Kunming's key industries draw on these resources to manufacture steel, non-ferrous metals, building materials, chemicals, diesel engines and machine tools. In the past few years, the traditional economy has diversified through growth of advanced technology industries such as biotech, optoelectronics, and information technologies. Many of these industries are located in the Kunming High-tech Industrial Development Zone. These key industries accounted for 80% of the Kunming's US$9.3 billion gross industrial output value in 2004, a 26% increase over 2003.
