Forums > Travel Yunnan > Yuxi-Kunming Trains? So any advice on getting to the YUXI bound bus station? The only one I know of is now in Cheng Gong, which is more than an hour away from where I live (Yunnan Ag. U.).
Tell me about these 50 rmb black cars I can supposedly find on Renming Lu. Do they have signs saying they will go to YUXI?
Forums > Living in Kunming > Beware US Consulate Chengdu Why do you think the place was attacked by a mob a few years ago? You don't think the dips behave better when they are off-duty, do you?
Chinese students compile statistics of rejections at various consulates and post them to web pages. Last I heard, the Shenyang consulate was the worst, rejecting 80% of applications.

Forums > Living in Kunming > Kunming sucks the life out of me... They eat a lot of rice in Philippines, too. If you don't like China, probably you won't like Philippines.
Forums > Travel Yunnan > What bus goes from the Yunnan University area to Cheng Gong I'm returning to KM after a time away. What busses connect the area of Yunnan University with Cheng Gong and the new South Bus Station? There used to be a bus station near Walmart, on Ren Min St. with busses to local towns including Cheng Gong. Is it still in business?
Around Town: Scenes of desolation in 'New Kunming'
发布者I visited the Normal U. Campus and the Minorities U. campus around New Years. It's still a wasteland and probably very boring for students to live there. Faculty insist on living at their old Cui Hu area apartments.
Aside from all else, Cheng Gong has no public transportation, making it almost impossible to get around, unless you are one of the new rich, with a car. Just getting there from other parts of KM is very difficult, and I don't expect the subway to change that soon.
Rhinos reintroduced to Yunnan

China and India look to strengthen ties
发布者I've been telling my students for years that one reason to study English is that business with India is bound to grow. One need only look at the map to notice that two of the fastest growing countries in the world are almost side-by-side, and that Kunming is well-placed to benefit from that. English will almost certainly be how Indian and Chinese businessmen communicate.
