I like how they changed the name from autonomous zone to zone of employment and economic development and then it got passed.

I sense it'll end up being a sweatshop farm and the "employees" will be paid so little that they won't be able to leave.

The us used to allow small towns like this. Employees would get paid in company minted currency. Then they'd only be able to shop at stores and restaurants owned by the company. This sort of thing is of course illegal now.
