Another reason why some people constantly advertise is that they want to expand, but cannot afford to pay the going rate.
But if advertising is free, they might just get lucky. But then again...
If you can get dinner dancing and champers for 300 rmb, let me know. And if you go to the chicken house you don't tend to pick up stalkers.
I have tried Google but can find nothing on this village or area. Perhaps it is too small.
Please provide more details of where it is. How far from Kunming and is it North, South, East, or West. A map would also help.
There are formal courses in Business Chinese, I have seen the books and posters advertising courses in universities in other cities.
Perhaps if you try contacting Yunnan Normal Uni, MBA Education Centre as it is a teaching Uni. They probably don't run a course, but they might know of someone who does.
In case you are not aware, business Chinese is different to everyday Chinese. Unlike business English, which is an extension of everyday English.
In your post you used the term Business Chinese skills. If you mean by this Chinese business skills/culture, there is only one way to learn that - by experience. But there are many books that can give you some insight, and you might be better off reading on your own.
I am doing OK, but I have a Chinese business adviser who I can trust (hard to find), but I married her.
You can rent a car/minibus and driver. This can end up costing not much more than hiring a car.
It is also more convenient, and takes out a lot of risk, especially if you have not learned the rules of the road (and I don't mean traffic law) in China yet.
However, Spring festival is a difficult time.
No results found.
Great to know it is no longer dry.
Good review BTW
This has moved.
The cut flowers are about 700m east on Duonan Jie. The plants and trees are about 700 m west and follow Duocai Section.
A reasonable choice of lumber that has improved over time. Fancy hardwoods like walnut, and mahogany are in abundance. There are some plywood and rubber-wood boards available. There are also some kiln dried imported softwoods and merbao available. Some of the lumber is very green, so look for the kiln dried if you need stable timbers.
Echo everything said by others.
Breakfast great and the serve from 8am. Most other places say 9am and they still are not ready.
Sandwiches are cheap 22-32, and really packed full of filling. We got some sandwiches for a day out, the only mistake I made was ordering two, as this was too much. These are seriously good sangars, and they are wrapped in alu foil.
In fairness to Metro, they are a wholesalers, and not really a supermarket. Hence the need for a card, which can be got around.
They have improved in the year I have been away. They now carry a more consistent range of imported foodstuffs and they also seem to have sorted out the mported milk supply.
They have a wider range of electrical appliances now, there is a coice of more than one toast. There is also a better range of seasonal non foods, like clothes, shoes, garden furniture and camping gear.
Detailed Kunming metro plans finally unveiled
发布者This is one of those irregular cases in English usage.
It's = it is or it has
Its - the possessive form has no apostrophe.

Rebranded Shaolin temples open today
发布者This isn't a rant. It is said with a little sadness.
This development is good for Kungfu, but perhaps not so good for Buddhism. Anyone who has visited the main Shaolin Temple will have experienced Kung Fu Incorporated. Including the Kung Fu cabaret, Cirque de Soleil rip off, blatant commercialism, and overpricing. The only thing missing are the harlots and moneychangers. Call me cynical, but many Chinese visitors I have spoken to are also saddened and disappointed (with a capital D) by the culture.
Many temples are now attracting money from many sources, and the need for commercialism is not as strong as it used to be. Those temples that have not already died, seem to be more stable than before, many are renovating.

Details emerge in Yunnan's largest-ever gutter oil case
发布者@ James,
This is sadly the result of unrestrained capitalism.
There is nothing new under the sun. A book was recommended to me, Upton Sinclaire's 'The Jungle' about the meat industry in Chicago in 1905. Not just tainted meat, but other fake foods, tainted milk (sound familiar), exploitation of factory workers (Fox... anyone?), crime, trafficking, drugs, etc.
The jungle was a protest book, and shares common flaws with other protest books, but the parallels with life in modern China are uncanny.
Nestlé investing 100 million yuan in Pu'er coffee
发布者Ref. shit brew.
That is more to do with the processing, and not so much the bean.
There is a reasonable variety of different 'flavours'/roasts of Arabica beans available. Some of it really good.
Nestle seem to specialise in instant coffee. The top one is Gold Blend which is not very hard to find, probably too dear for local tastes, but a damned sight better than UCC's offerings IMHO.
