Inflation in Shenzhen

Because of this regulation and control, there is a less likely chance of a significant appreciation/depreciation of the Chinese Renminbi (Yuan) in a short amount of time.In addition, the Chinese Renminbi has shown a trend of appreciating over the past several years and it is very possible that it will gain value over the currency used in your native country in the years to come.
