Forums > Living in Kunming > Extending F visa

160 Yuan for tourist visa extensions, not sure about the F visa though. You'd have to go and check it out. Also, the process should take 5 days and you can't seem to pay extra for a rush service.

Forums > Study > Are there any programs in Kunming for foreigners to become qualified as Chinese teachers

Many, if not most of the Thai students at universities such as the Yunnan University of Nationalities (云南民族大学) are there on 2+2 programs where they spend 2 years in Kunming and 2 years at home to become Chinese language teachers in their home country. Enquire as to whether a similar program is available for you, which would allow you to study in Kunming or elsewhere in China and get the qualifications you desire that would allow you to teach in schools back home.

Forums > Living in Kunming > Is Kundu safe?

I find that if you ask first and engage people nicely, they will almost certainly offer you some drinks anyway. In fact, they may even offer you many more drinks that you'd like and even the fruit or other food that they've ordered. If you steal a drink from someone's table, then of course you're asking for trouble.

Forums > Travel Yunnan > nearest Yunnan-Laos border crossing to Kunming?

Bringing any vehicle across to Laos shouldn't be a problem...it's certainly much easier than the other way around as China is very fussy about these things. BTW is your bike registered in China, for example Yunnan? If so, find out what the requirements are at the local vehicle management station or equivalent that may be able to assist.

Hopefully enough money can also be raised in the future for her eventual kidney transplant.

According to the article re: railroad in Laos, this Malaysian firm wants to build a 220km connection between Thailand and Vietnam NOT the one up to the Chinese border that's been talked about and cancelled, then revived again so many times.

The plan by the Lao government to still go ahead with the railway project is unbelievable. Neighboring Vietnam voted not to go ahead with a planned Ho Chi Minh to Hanoi high speed rail link due to concerns about profitability (i.e. not enough Vietnamese would be able to afford a ticket despite having a reasonably sized middle class at least in Hanoi and Saigon).

Now Laos, with only just over 6 million people and a tiny middle class wants to do the same? Good luck! However, I wouldn't be surprised if in 6 months from now I read in the Vientiane Times that the project has been put on hold again.

I'd suggest stick to a normal speed train that locals will actually be able to afford, going high-speed while neither Thailand nor Vietnam, two neighboring economic juggernaughts have plans to do the same is quite far fetched, I'll believe it when I see it but it seems like a crazy idea for now!

The only good news is that Laos can take control of the railway project and not have to worry about the previous 5km land concession on either side of the tracks that was previously demanded by the Chinese side.

Also, scally is correct about the reasons for Naw Kham being tried in China and logically Kunming, the closest major Chinese city to the area where the attacks occurred would be the best place to try him.

Incidentally, the 9 renegade Thai soldiers also implicated in the attacks will be tried in Thailand.

Well, he killed only Chinese sailors and based on this story, he has had run-ins with the Chinese authorities before. Overall, it's good that this criminal has been brought to justice. Also, by being tried in China he will receive the punishment he deserves.

The Mekong River in the 2000s should be about tourism and trade, not murder, drug trafficking and mayhem. Those latter three things should firmly be entrenched as relics of the past.

What do you mean by "foreigners"? Everyone who is a non-citizen of Myanmar and wants to travel there is a foreigner. I doubt Burmese citizens require visas to return to their homeland.

Horrible tasteless, thick-crusted "cardboard" like pizzas that are a far cry from what they should be like. Way overpriced too. Wine may be good, but why bother when the nearby Prague Cafe makes much better pizza at a more reasonable price?

Great Mexican food and ice cream, excellent Raspberry smoothies and an overall good atmosphere. Can't do much about the low ceilings on the second floor, but the early closing time could be adjusted, after all, the nearby French Cafe closes at 1am.
