Forums > Living in Kunming > Bring in Mangosteen from Thailand

I have found that the vendors I use say jin, but actually mean gongjin. IE, the vendors confuse the two. Easy to check, by just repeating back using gongjin in your response. I have only ever had nods of agreement. I have not seen jin (500g) used for over 10 years.
Others may have had a different experience.

Forums > Travel Yunnan > Wenshan/Malipo Travel Advice (Driver/Translator)

Car, yes. You can always find a driver for a fee in towns. You might even get a daily rate from a taxi driver. Perhaps your friend knows someone, who knows someone, etc.
Translator, possibly not in Malipo. You will probably find a translator who is willing to travel with you from Kunming, if you pay for transport and accommodation. They will then be able to assist with getting train/bus tickets, hotel, etc.

Try putting a classified ad on Gokunming - Wanted Translator for travel in Wenshan.
I do see people advertising here who offer translation and assistance type help. Possibly uni students. You should get a response to an ad.

Sounds like a great trip, and some very sound advice. For anyone who has not climbed or hiked at altitude before, you need to be fit to cope with heights over 4500m, and the air seems to thin exponentially above that.

Scientists probably have different ideas about how the virus may have been transmitted and transferred between species. Some may be fairly certain., but the cannot say with absolute certainty, and so they say that they do not know.

Why do they say this? Because even if they are '99 percent certain'some idiots will shout "FAKE NEWS, FAKE NEWS'.

I live near Haigeng Park. I love the way that there is a new section of Hubin Lu that is not safe for pedestrians, and another part that is not safe for cyclists. They have now banned cycles from a section of, what was, cycle path along the side of DianChi lake.
Another example of lack of continuity. There is a huge spend to upgrade Cuihu (Green Lake) area. It would be nice if they finish the long overdue subway first. Hopefull Cuihu will be finished before we have another change of Mayor, who will focus on HIS projects as the priority.

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.
