We would probably note that the trends starting in the 1980's, i.e. the loosening of trade and investment restrictions, continued as mainland China gradually opened up. Development spread from the southern coastal provinces to the North and through the interior.
我們也許就會注意到這個趨勢由八○年代開始，貿易投資的限制逐漸放寬，中國大陸逐漸開放；大陸沿海省份的開發持續向北、向內陸延伸。
