- NOTE: For those who have been living in China for some time and have been re-issued new passports, I highly recommend you take the time to get the Police Clearance (Criminal Background Check) completed before departing Kunming.

Kunming's former party boss charged with corruption
发布者My goodness, dont these people realize that by persecuting these public officials they are stealing food from their children's mouths. To think that now their kids must take the Gao Kao and go to universities in China because their father is either in jail or can no longer afford to send his children abroad. How terrible. This must be the work of evil foreigners trying to colonize China.

To me, if you are PRO USA, then you are a Bad Guy.
