Forums > Living in Kunming > Someone playing with tinternet?

My US hotmail account, when I close it no longer goes to MSN.com in the USA. It defaults to China.

My question answered.

I assume that in a day or so my UK hotmail account will also default to .cn

Bummer

Forums > Living in Kunming > Getting a chinese visa in hong kong

If you are not changing the status of your visa, e.g. a 'Z' for a 'Z' then you should not have to leave China.

However, if you change from your 'Z' to an 'F', for example, you will need a border run.

There are a number of employers looking for people, ESL and other teachers now. They are desperate as some start new programs/terms April 6th. The fact that you are not a native speaker may not bother them so close to the deadline.

Forums > Living in Kunming > prescription drugs?

I have never heard of an online Pharmacy in China. There are lots of people selling prescription only meds, but most if not all are fake.

Have you tried to ask for a prescription of a substitute drug that is available in China?

Why did the doc prescribe that particular drug, did you ask for it? Seems odd that the doc prescribed something not generally available.

If the drug is made my Pfizer, Astra-Zeneca, or Bristol Myers Squib (BMS); they all have big offices in Shanghai and most of the managers speak good English (the latter 2 companies English training is compulsory and staff need to be good to get promoted). It may be possible to ask IF (big if) any of the hospitals in Kunming stock the drug you want. You could then try that hospital's pharmacy, although they may demand you have another consult.

Sorry I cannot be of any more help.

That would be really cool.
I am not a Canuck but I was out in Canada in the hazy days of early 80's when Gretsky was the God, the Oilers ruled, and every game began with 'Axle F'. And life was accompanied by Sicks or Labbat's. And in Alberta local TV was sponsored by either Hires Root Beer or Parr's Funeral Homes

I think of it a bit like an open belt, a strip or swathe. Or if the roads are the lines of communication/trade, then the area of influence (political/economic) along the road is the belt, Others may see if differently.

Definition from Merriam Webster

Belt - an area characterized by some distinctive feature (as of culture, habitation, geology, or life forms); especially : one suited to a particular crop the corn belt

Dali will change even more, but that rate of change may be faster. What will change is the crowds and prices for accommodation. If it follows the pattern of Lijiang and other places, locals will sell up and outsiders will move in, either as buyers or long term renters.

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.
