Forums > Living in Kunming > Chinese birth certificate. Has anyone else had problems with Chinese birth certificates when applying for a foreign passport? Our son was born in Kunming and the best BC they could come up with (after 3 attempts) was one where you still couldn't make out 2 letter in his name. My embassy can't accept an unreadable BC, which unfortunately makes perfect sense.
Do you guys have perfectly legible birth certificates or what? Were we just unlucky or interacted with halfwits at our hospital?
Forums > Living in Kunming > English premiere league in Kunming Yesterday was pretty crappy. I could only find one or two half-decent links on all the streaming sites I know combined. I wish Sopcast was still going strong, since I don't have much success with the torrent streaming links that replaced it.
Forums > Living in Kunming > English premiere league in Kunming There are excellent streams over PPTV, Sina and many other Chinese sites. I usually use www.livefootballol.tv to find them. It's very easy and quick. Chinese/Cantonese commentating though. The stream loads in seconds and I've never experienced losing it again.

Forums > Living in Kunming > Kindergarten Recommendation I've taught some kids from Yunda Kindergarten. They were nice and well behaved. I was also there as Santa for a Christmas event some years ago. For Yunnan, the premises looked OK but a little bit cramped. There are private alternatives around Kunming, some of which are franchises of the large eastern seaboard kindergartens chains, but I can't remember having seen any of those located around the Green Lake area. Anyway, Yunda is fine and if you're planning on staying for some years, having Yunda Kindergarten on your kid's resume definitely won't hurt when looking for a good primary school.
Kunming-based project aims to make cycling history
发布者Let me be the first to offer a very sincere "Yawn" and a good luck with the project. I don't mind cycling per se but after having experienced traffic in China I would much rather donate to research into human teleportation so we can avoid spending time dodging cars and sidestepping scooters in the deadly chaos known as the Kunming streets. Can you imagine what it will be like in 5-10 years with their plans to make this a 10 million city without building a subway?
Yunnan coffee grower to export to the US
发布者Never heard of "ECUM Coffee Group", made a quick search on some Danish websites,, no results and no companies with even remotely similar sounding names. Oh well,, that's 10 mins of my life I am never getting back.
Officials: Yuxi cholera outbreak 'under control'
发布者How comforting that it only took 2 weeks to spread the news. Should think people had learned their lesson at this point. Cholera is a m/f of a nasty disease.
Yunnan Copper executive sentenced to death for accepting bribes
发布者The corruption in China is out of control but still,,, death penalty. That is ridiculous.
