Development history

In June 2003, when president Hu Jintao visited Kazakhstan, Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev proposed to establish a free trade zone in the border area of Horgos. A year later, Xinjiang and Almaty signed the Framework Agreement on Establishing the International Border Cooperation Center between China and Kazakhstan in Horgos.

In 2005, during the Astana Summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, Hu Jintao and Nazarbayev both decided to start the construction of the cooperation center. At this point, Horgos made a high-profile appearance on the political and economic map of China and became one of the hottest areas in western China at that time.

Today, the China-Kazakhstan Horgos International Border Cooperation Center has become the only international border cooperation center in the world and a demonstration zone for economic and trade exchanges between countries under the framework of the SCO.

"I missed the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone and the Shanghai Free Trade Zone, and I can't miss the China-Kazakhstan Horgos International Border Cooperation Center." This is a sentence on the publicity board on the side of the Party Working Committee Building in Horgos Economic Development Zone.

Free trade zone has tax incentives, so in just a few years, hundreds of film and television companies came to Horgos to register subsidiaries and tax havens, which is called Hollywood. "
