The 8-square-kilometre West Jimei Industrial
Development Zone is located to the north of National Highway 324 and
between the Yongquan and Feipeng Industrial Parks. A number of
enterprises including Yongquan Group and Feipeng Corporation have set up
their business here. The zone is within easy accesses to the National
Highways 324 and 319, Fuzhou-Xiamen-Zhangzhou Expressway and
Yingtan-Xiamen Railway. It is 15 kilometres distant from Xiamen Gaoqi
International Airport, 17 kilometres away from Dongdu dock and Haicang
Harbour respectively. The county-level Highway 403 still under
construction runs through the zone. In its southwest lies the 220 KV
Lilin Transformer Substation and the Tianma Tap Water Factory nearby
supplies water for both domestic and industrial use. 4 square kilometres
of the area have been given over to the development of electronics and
information industries (including the manufacturing of optical and
electrical products) and their ancillary industries; on 2 other square
kilometres, companies manufacturing electrical appliances, various
instruments and metres, environmental protection equipment and chemical
and engineering machinery are to be set up. Furthermore, an R&D and
training centre and a product exhibition division for the
electro-mechanical industry will also be developed on this plot of land.
The remaining 2 square kilometres are stet aside only form landscaping,
evidence that the development of this industrial zone has taken the
ecological preservation into full consideration.
