Also in Panlong district, when picking up kid from kindergarten today the teacher said tomorrow there is no attendance.
Later in the class group chat she just gave message "If there are any questions, call me". The other parent did, and was told there is no information when kindergarten would resume.
I have accessed computers outside China with RDP client, but last time was maybe 2 years ago. It worked as backup option to check email etc when other options were unavailable, but that's it.
I have never really got sick directly from food, water or related issues in Kunming. Child in kindergarten creates indirect channel though.
There is one particular city elsewhere in Yunnan where I have on number of occasions got sick from eating, to the degree of trying to avoid the city altogether.
I am not convinced that my stomach is less sensitive than most people's, but if that would be the case and there still is specific city where I frequently get problems, it probably indicates need of attention of health officials - or would somewhere else.
I think that most of the concerns brought up on this thread are not about any specific ethnicity of foreigners, but merely holding a foreign passport and as such denied (sometime without legal basis) services.
Registering at hotel for example, where one is required to present a Chinese ID or foreign passport, I don't think that it would make difference whether the passport says USA, Finland, Iraq or Korea (with face matching the mainstream ethnicity in given country) - treatment would be same.
I would not attribute those toward central government policies as much as ignorance of local establishments and local government entities supervising them.
Kunming is still not a civilized city - even by China's own standards, right?
Indeed nobody (except PSB) would know exactly, but probably won't have public data until next national census?
Should probably factor in that beside CoVid-19 there may be other reasons (for-profit education crackdown for example) that contributes to some foreigners choosing to leave, while the pandemic simultaneously making some unable to leave despite wanting - as demonstrated in above comment.
So even if there were solid figures, interpreting those might be non-trivial. If looking for reasons at all that is.
No results found.
Migrant workers receive bricks in lieu of pay
发布者@alienew: "The workers should hold them liable with brickbats."
Well, that would set a dangerous precedent, which would only result in only tighter enslaving of employees in future operations across the nation. And certainly overriding limited liability of iinvestors only serves to drive investments away from these places.

发布者"The company may not have assets to pay, but I bet the owners do."
And that's the difference between limited and unlimited liability ownership.
University life in the not-so-ghost town of Chenggong
发布者The second to last picture with all the shop signs actually reminds me of Hong Kong.
Perhaps off topic, but this is strikingly opposite of recent developments in first tier cities and in fact even our own apartment block in northern Kunming, where the authorities are forcing shops to remove excessive signs on the streets and in the walls - basically anywhere outside the immediate space the shops have leased.
Government sues parents to get kids back to school
发布者Alright, if you go that way then everything is assuming. Assumptions is what made our ancestors come down from trees and cross a river and a mountain range. You assume quite a bit already when you go to sleep at night.
I am not assuming anything that didn't happen already. China already had a peasant revolution that was supposed to bring prosperity to all.
I am not asking for another revolution, but I am asking for that same spark. I do admit assuming that the Chinese state can contain such spark better this time.

发布者@Dazzer: "you go again, asume asume "
Is it assuming if I have seen it with my own eyes?
