We have our van back. It took a while, but it's back and in pretty good condition :)

I wonder what the "fork" is good for shown in an image on another website. Police should carry guns to fight serious criminals and shoot on sight. Not become victims themselves! And please stop killing the criminals. Just shoot them in their legs so you can at least question them later.
Letting these terrorists get this far is a blunder.
Yes, police here are too lazy sometimes.
So is telling me: "I'm sorry your car is stolen. We can't help you as we don't work on Sunday night".
No, I haven't been to the airport today (glad I don't have to). I am just putting up the latest information on here that I get translated from my wife.
Extra security and inspections? Pretty sure they'll have those. But I think you can still go inside. Another option is get them to take a taxi out of the airport straight to your place or pick them up somewhere else after their taxi ride. (unless everyone thinks taking a taxi out of there is a good idea and there aren't any).
Unfortunately it's part of daily life here and people don't even bother thinking about it as it's second nature to ignore.

Also, the claim of the explosion could have been anything as long as there is no news from the government (car accident maybe? BBQ gone wrong? Maybe just the wrong time.) seems the information stream is screwed tight again to avoid public anxiety. However, the lack of news just increases it sometimes.
At this time the only thing that really concerns me is the missing women that were sighted with the attackers.
The airport is jam packed with security, police and military at this time. As it is a high-priority place.
PS: Don't question the motivation or reasoning of terrorists. They have to be incredibly stupid to become a terrorist in the first place. Just don't go places they would go.
No results found.
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.

发布者Of what I have seen the problem lies in the amount of sugar used in cooking rather than the amount of junkfood consumed (which tends to be very high in salt). People don't like too much sugar as in pure sugar or sugar in drinks and snacks, yet if you see how much they use in cooking (they put in bread, sticky rice milk, etc. too), my goodness how much that is.
Many dishes people like to eat are very high in sugar content. Orange Beef has a ton of sugar as far as I know. But it's soo tasty!
