FTA is different than FTZ

The article describes mostly free-trade-zones like freeshop, etc. - these are different than Free Trade Area/agreements/zones like EFTA, NAFTA, Balkans FTA matrix, etc.

Ok, I moved the FTA stuff to free trade area as it's not the same thing as a free trade zone. --Vikingstad 18:56, Jun 19, 2005 (UTC)

The article did not address FTZ in developed countries and did not explain the use of FTZ for logistics and re-branding activities.

dfference between ftz and fez

this may be a really stupid question, but what's the difference between FTZ and a Free economic zone?

Unverfied alteration to criticism

I'm not very good at this yet. THis user http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Ramin786&action=edit&redlink=1 added unverfied unsourced content under criticism, undermining the verfiable content already posted. I'm deleting it.

It was second to last paragraph in Criticism section: "Of course, even where no taxes are paid at all, the workers' salaries are themselves the major benefit to the host country. Moreso given that the salaries paid must be higher than workers' alternatives, so long as the company hopes to attract workers."

Best, Sam_gunn. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sam gunn (talk • contribs) 23:01, 7 September 2010 (UTC)

FTZs in Jordan

There are two or three such zones (or areas?) in Jordan: Zarqa, et al. See articles on Jordan. As far as I could see, not listed in the section List of free trade zones of the article. There could be a reason, so I hesitate to add. Svato (talk) 14:32, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
