The State Owned and Operated .CN is lowering the price of a domain name registration to somewhere about 13 cents. .CN is wholly subsidized and manipulates the use of .CN for the perceived good of the country. They are entitled.
  But the rub comes in international markets where other ccTLDs and TLDs are not subsidized or controlled by the government. They cannot compete fairly. Hence tariffs and trade agreements.
  A government owned and subsidized industry in one place should have no bearing on the prices charged in competitive free markets.
