Xiamen One of Most 'Open' Chinese Cities

According to a recent report, Xiamen (厦门) is the third highest ranked city in China in terms of economic, technological and social openness.

Shenzhen (深圳) and Guangzhou (广州) are the two cities ranked ahead of China. Both are much bigger than Xiamen in terms of size and population. I'm a bit surprised that Shanghai isn't included in the top cities from this report, but I'm not sure exactly what criteria were used. Anyway, I guess this means for those of us that want a somewhat smaller, less crowded, less polluted, but still "open" environment in China, Xiamen is the place to be.
