| Abstract | Yiwu county of Zhejiang province in China is a notoriously poor farming community; its population say they have suffered poverty for 2,000 years. However a marked change emerged after 1978, when the economic reform policy was announced. The farmers in Yiwu took advantage of the opportunity offered to turn this impoverished region into a big textile marketing centre. |
