As far as visas are considered, the point of having them there is to provide information about such policies for Chinese nationals wanting to go to UK.

I don't understand how British, or any foreign consulate, could help you in obtaining extension or any information about Chinese visa. That is Chinese jurisdiction.
I think the Darwin award should be split between all the individuals who willingly inhale toxic chemicals, whether shared or not, and whether there was a current public health concern or not.
Bars or other entities making profit on that deserve some other award in my opinion.
We are looking to rent a bigger and cheaper (yes both at same time) apartment. Because my wife works in the area, we are looking at Junfa City development up north near Sijiaying subway stop.
We will scout around a bit this month, but the location is quite decided anyway.
Does anyone have info about shopping/dining/family entertainment venues close by? Google Map shows some kind of restaurant compex on Longbo Road for example. There's supposed to be a family park under construction somewhere as well.
A bit off-topic, but our soon-3-year old boy is easily entertained now with his mother starting to work, and the father (that being me) cutting back on work and giving him more opportunities to play with other children in the neighbourhood.
For some reason my wife has been reluctant to put herself in position where she would have to risk confrontations with the kid (come end of playtime), or the kid with his peers (over toys for example). So he hasn't spent much time with children other than those of few close friends of his mother.
I don't have as many such constrains. We just pack a couple of toys in a bag and go find some company - which is abundant now with older kids not attending kindergartens.
Trading toys with other children is great fun for him, as long as I keep eye on taking our own toys back.
Today we finally discovered that a nearby park with slides and other free plays is actually open - just the gate closest to us has remained locked, and we've been checking on it in vain for a couple of weeks already.
No results found.

China's upscaling of potato production sprouts controversy
发布者Speaking of potato, what's the favorite kind of street food potato you people have had in Kunming?
There is a strip along Beijing Lu about half-way between Baiyun Lu and North Railway Station, where there are several small eateries (and one big hot pot restaurant) on the west side of road.
One of those small shops sells potato slices which are apparently first cooked in oil, and then finished in another round of oil before being mixed with chili and some other spices.
You can probably find same kind of potato elsewhere in Kunming, at least there is sign outside which has contact number for franchising.
Very delicious, this has become my favorite potato dish in Kunming.
Update: Officials fired after school stampede kills six
发布者Yeah by "those who have a choice" I was referring to people who could pack up their family and leave the city or even the country if must. Should such people want to report about apparent corruption (would have to be first hand experience I guess) in education system, where would they do it in Kunming?

发布者How would one go against this? Where to complain formally and how?
I understand that for many there isn't much choice, but what about those who have?
Xuning Temple, Kunming's mountaintop sanctuary
发布者That restoration project sounds nice. Without knowing the details, it would be an interesting opportunity for the foreign community to do some volunteering, if it ever takes such form where it might be applicable.
