Forums > Living in Kunming > Chinese tourist behaving badly

In the cases of McDonald's and Nanja shopping mall, which among any Chinese of any level are known to have quality toilets, are pure laziness and being a douche. Nothing more.
I asked my spouse about it, if it's normal. It's not.

On the subway, yes it's a difficult situation. They give clothes with no bottom to the kids, so they can do it anywhere any time. The parents often are uneducated and mostly just too lazy to bring their kid to a restroom. Or don't want to spend money and time of buying and changing diapers. Plenty of exceptions exist too where the parent do being kids to a restroom.

You just don't expect the "fresh" counter to be watered in that way.
Advice: wear non-slip shoes and don't pick up any fallen produce off the floor.

Taking a shit inside a shopping mall because you can't find / bother to ask for the toilet, that's "a dump too far".

Making your children poo in the middle of a shopping street, only 20 meters from a public toilet which is free: pure logic! because the public toilet is severely unhygienic and they want to protect their children (true).
If it's right, that's another question.

Forums > Study > Chinese language school in South KM

Thank you for the suggestion. I know the school. Unfortunately I am living too far away for frequent classes. I am looking for something in the XingYao / Guandu Old Town area.

I like the "blocking feature" idea.
I proposed it in the past to gokunming too after a series of rants and double meaning "insults" by people. This way you only have to read the posts with actual topic related content.

Personally I like to use gokunming less because of people spending too much time on here... Waiting for the next topic.

Someone once said: get a life... outside Facebook!
I agree also for people on here.

Is there a list available of animals the government sees as endangered or forbidden? Not that I'd ever eat anything like those, but I want to know how far their list reaches in regards to foreign animals and if Yao Ming's efforts paid off. Thanks!

Hmm, sounds like every day driving in KM. Risking your life in an attempt to get to where you have to be.
It feels and looks just like a Demolition Derby here.
(Today a guy threatened to ram our car twice! because he was jealous that we were driving 5 Kph faster than him and using our "indicator light" to offend him...)

It becomes really sad when drivers here don't care about making life hard for people who are ill, pregnant or disabled. Or cause injury or death to others because it is of no concern to them or is simply beneficial to them. I've seen it happen. No deaths yet, but close enough...

Golden rule:
"What you don't know won't hurt you."

Expensive, but probably one of the best places in this whole province to find genuine top brands (Prada, Gucci, etc.) for outlet prices.
Their jewelry sections in the basement is also very large but I would never touch any jewelry in China.

Unbeatable priced. Seriously!
Prices start from 25 yuan p/p when you have a member card (deposit money on it).
The theaters are very good and they also show movies in 3D.

They always have the latest movies. Actually, they show most foreign movies in their native language which is awesome as I don't understand much Chinese yet.
Chinese movies are frequently shown with English subtitles.

Just make always sure and ask before attending a show what the language and subtitles are, but I guess that's a given in China :)

Personally this is one of my favorite halal restaurants in Kunming. ^_^

Known well among the upper class of Kunming, it is very classy and is very good for quality business lunches and dinners. Having been here many times, this restaurant truly never lets you down. It's a little more pricey (-or a lot more pricey than your average noodle and rice restaurant), but the staff is very well trained and the food is exquisite and above all safe (they don't serve pork). (this is an absolute pre- when having business dinners as you don't want your guests to become sick).

My favorite dishes:
Steamed whole fish (predator type) in light soy-sauce.
Ground beef and ground peanuts over baked eggplant.
The seafood ice platter (salmon, scallop and snail) is very delicate and good for making a quality impression.

This is one of South Kunming's largest farmers markets. Originally named "seafood market" for its focus on fish, shellfish and other seafood, it now contains a large vegetable, fruit, meat, bakery and dried food selection.

New Asia Athletics Park (Guandu District) is one of the most well thought-out developments of the city. As part of the de-urbanization plan, it accommodates the new government and trade districts of the city.
It is also one of the most child-friendly districts of Kunming.

Located next to the Guandu Ancient Town, New Asia Athletics Park boasts a hospital, dozens of playgrounds in car-free zones and parks, a quality hotel, a stadium with various sport facilities including badminton, ping-pong, basketball and football (there are more facilities).

In addition it has one of Kunming's top Halal restaurants with truly exquisite food and many other options for fine dining, a very good value cinema (who offers a card system allowing you to get tickets for about half price). They always have the latest movies (also available in English or with English subtitles).

It is next to the new Metro line (which already runs here), with easy access to the flower market and Chenggong University town. Carrefour Supermarket, Luosiwan International Trade City and the lake.

There is also a direct freeway to Kunming airport making it a very convenient location.

Planned for opening in 2014 / 2015 there is also the New Kunming Theater and a new Kunming / Yunnan museum.
