Following the deadly factory explosion on Saturday morning, many other factories in the city have suspended production on Sunday for more thorough safety hazard checks. Many also say the incident has posed doubts about the effectiveness of safety supervision1 in Kunshan, a city well known for its role as an intensified2 production base in China.
Kunshan is a county-level city located in east China’s Jiangsu Province, just 70 kilometers away from Shanghai. With its geographic3 advantages, the city has since the 1990s rapidly grown into a capital-intensive and export-oriented economy.
According to a local government report, by the end of 2012 Kunshan had attracted over 5,000 investment projects from 65 countries and regions, with total investment at over $30 billion. Over 60 Fortune 500 companies have set up factories in the city. In 2013, the city’s total industrial output value stood at almost 890 billion Yuan or $150 billion.
