It seems that there is a huge amount of diverse thought on this subject.
1. How much, as a foreigner in China, would you expect to earn as a house cleaner - I'm sure that you'd feel that 60 yuan/hour quite reasonable - after all, you are, perhaps, accepting a relatively low Chinese-level income for teaching at the moment?
2. Accredited Chinese teachers do not earn 10 yuan/hour - I know many who are buying their own houses and driving expensive cars.
3. Perhaps, if you can only afford to pay $1/hour ... you don't deserve to have a house keeper/cleaner/cook/nanny/etc.
4. The Western media describes the the Chinese low wages as part of the Communist system ... I wonder.
4. It's often referred to as 'exploitation'. It reminds me of Palestinians building houses for Zionists in the occupied West Bank (My favourite subject).
I believe that if you require Australian documents to be notorized for an Australian visa, you'll need an Austalian lawyer (In China, this will be at the embassy or a consulate). If there are Chinese documents, they will require to be translated by an accredited translator.
After four years in Chengdu, came to Kunming - have never regretted it.
POLLUTION: Blue skies are unheard of, i.e., continuous smog. Large rivers downtown (and everywhere else) used to dispose of dead dogs from the pet market and, in the slow moving sections, bubbles with toxic gases.
Tell them you have a translation business (anything). Perhaps, produce a business card from your computer. It's they that need your business as a customer.
Matthew; Thank you for that. I think that I have been under a silly misunderstanding (?) I always assumed that the writer originates the tag words and, thus, may not have covered everything. Now, I guess that you guys do that?
Chris; No doubt, your new window view has had an affect on your writing creations (Actually, this story may have been conceived before the new view, but let's pretend otherwise).
Is it not possible to have a section of this Website specifically set up to permit easy searches to well-written travel stories. Yes, we have Lonely Planet, but there's also an important niche for stories like this.
I can't imagine that you'll not offer this story to every airline that flies into China, for example.
Fantastic pictures - can't wait to return.
One small critique; hotel descriptions would be nice.
Chris; Now, living away from Kunming, your story is a joy. Will you, now, relocate your office back to the apartment with the fantastic new view. Which reminds me of the saying, "A writer is working his hardest when staring out the window".
Kunming will be totally renovated with the removal of the 'cages'. I look forward to seeing the result.
My only fear is that landlords will reinstall things back inside the window.
By the way, who gets the financial compensation - there's a fortune in metal there.
This restaurant is totally overwhelmed whenever the 4th floor is opened ... especially at weekends.
The kitchen is too small, and the kitchen staff too inexperienced. As others have said, it isn't difficult to learn that an 'appetizer' is a 'starter' and should be served before the main course.
To explain that the kitchen is "Too busy" should mean. 'CLOSE THE TOP FLOOR!'
The owner must recruit more staff from India, and spend more time at the restaurant (He hasn't been here here for three months).
I am considering a visit to Kunming soon.
This information confuses me. There is another hotel on the opposite side of the street (opposite the university's West Gate) that is also called (as far as I remember) Yunnan University Hotel.
It is much less expensive.
Hotel reviews are much needed.

Protected buffer zone to surround Dianchi Lake
发布者'Nope' has a point. But I hope that the recent crackdown on corruption will deter too many new villas being built (There will be some, of course).
If not, perhaps, the arrival of the next revolution will arrive before we originally imagined.
