I've read lately somewhere, can't remember that that the iPhone5 will have both CDMA and GSM. Is this correct? If so, can it work in China? (unlocked)

That information has not been announced yet.
This is a rumors site. Unless it's announced by Apple, your guess is as good as ours.
Now, in reference to China carriers, I believe a lot of their networks run on CDMA, of which you'd need a Verizon iPhone.

I have no idea what spec the iphone5 will have but CDMA phones are not locked.
For a CDMA phone to work in China it must operate on the correct frequency and the Carrier must be willing to register it on their network.
Awesome!
Yes, but it must be unlocked. I'm on the latest baseband so I purchased a Gevey sim tray to unlock mine.
