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.

Kunming's bike share options: A user guide
发布者The Alipay strategy is very clever. Free bike for a month gets people used to using your service and are more likely to stay with you. It also gets around the problem of people's resistance to downloading another APP offering the same service as one you already have. It also attracts new users who may not have bothered with public hire bikes before.
