I have mixed feelings too. I am from the country next to Honduras. On one hand our countries would definitely benefit from places with more straightforward regulations. I believe some successful cities in China are special economic zones and that's where they are copying the idea from. Our day to day regulations in Central America make even cross border investment very complicated. They are simply not written in a way that are inviting for foreign investment. Both El Salvador and Honduras have had this Special Economic Zones proposed. They were opposed by the left wing in Honduras, and opposed by the right wing in El Salvador. I'm not sure what will happen to them now that the left win won in Honduras.
