YIW · Yiwu's compact 2009 T1 plus 2014 T2 is a ¥1.5 city bus and a T1 sofa CIP — the tradeoff is a thin international bank, no metro, and no skip-immigration.
HGH · A new T4 plus three metro lines under the GTC, paid for with a T3/T4 split, a still-closed T2 leftover trap, landside PP rooms that waste an airside visit, and unpublished annual on-time stats.
