This project is a bit different than the normal incentives given to encourage a company to locate in a particular state.

I believe this is a 50 square mile zone that will be owned and operated by the Chinese, including bringing over Chinese workers to manufacture goods in this country.

I’m not really sure of the details and I’m too tired to look them up, but do it.

Did some research if you want to read the law and the governors take on it here's the site. http://www.project60.idaho.gov/
If you want the lib side of the story, sad that it seems more reasonable, here's the Statesman take on it.

I would point out that the free trade zone doesn't give a piece of Idaho to the Chinese. In fact it appears to be a limit on where these investors can locate their businesses. Also keep in mind these investors are private individuals not the Chinese government.
