Forums > Living in Kunming > Getting a chinese driving license

I noticed that my driving license number is my old passport number. Can anyone confirm that it's not problem when you show up to renew the license with a new passport that has a different number?

Bump. Any reviews of ebikes on the market that meet new restrictions? Are they hopelessly underpowered, or just capped at 20kph? Do they have enough umph to carry two adults? Can they be souped up or have a rom update after purchase that will lift the speed restriction? Just curious if anybody has any firsthand experience with this.

Probably a spammer dug up the thread and posted some spam. Then admins deleted the spam, but the thread still shows as recently updated in the system, so it gets bumped to the top.

Forums > Living in Kunming > Transferring cash out of China

I Googled Swapsy. I would be very wary of that service for transferring large amounts of cash within a single calendar year. The way the service functions, I would think that each party in the "swap" would be liable for income tax on the money they receive from the other, and the Swapsy website does nothing to address that issue.

@Dudesons, Diandongche are unfortunately not on their list of accepted items.

@Alien Agree it's not ideal to ship to Beijing. But I think if you consider the small amount of pollution caused by trucking it to Beijing vs the benefit of proper disposal it's a net environmental benefit. As mentioned in the article, if anybody has leads on licensed facilities in Kunming I'd love to hear about it.

I had a really good burger here recently. Steven, the chef, really knows what he is doing. Worth checking out. Of course, good beer, too.

Cantina is always a safe bet for top-notch food and great service. I think it has actually gotten better and better over the years, which is often not the case with restaurants. Most people who live in Kunming know Cantina. Perhaps not as many know how involved the owners, Libby and Diego, are in various social welfare and community service efforts. Highly recommended both for visitors and long-term residents!

I went there twice for group boxing classes. I left the third time when I was attempting to book into a grappling class. This was part of an attempted process on my part to try the different classes offered there and see if I wanted to purchase one of their various membership cards.

The boxing classes were fun, a great workout, and the coaches and fellow students were all nice. A good atmosphere. Certainly room for improvement, especially in terms of explaining the class structure and fundamental concepts of the sports to beginners...but overall good.

However, on front desk staff member erased the positive aspects of the gym through his unprofessional and rude conduct. I was treated like some sort of con-man for wanting to try out the different classes offered before committing to multi-thousand RMB membership card, despite my willingness to pay per class to try them out. I wasted my time riding over to the gym on a very cold day on my scooter and then being refused service unless I committed on the spot to buying a membership card in direct contradiction to the gym's own policies and written price table. Also wasted was my friend's time and money, as she was in a cab on the way over to the gym in order to join me for the group class at the time I was refused service. My exchange with the staff (in which I was not terribly satisfied, but remained calm and reasonable throughout) was topped off with a remark from the one particular staff member with xenophobic undertones.

As one may see from my other reviews on this site, I typically try not to say anything unless I have something nice to say. In this case, I feel I must make an exception: I don't think it's a business that deserves your effort or money.

One of the best western restaurants in Yunnan. Definitely worth visiting if you will be passing through Shangrila!
