Forums > Living in Kunming > Possible free 2 month visa extension I don't have an answer, but questions that come to mind are:
@AlPage48. When you say local police station. Is that the place where you get your certificate of residence for your area of the city? Or is it just the nearest police station?
@Markus, the same question to you as well.

It would be good to keep this thread focused on the Corona Virus, because it is such an important topic right now, and it is where many visitors to the forum will look first.
Forums > Living in Kunming > Possible free 2 month visa extension I am fine with your use of the word possible. People need to check their own situation for themselves. Because everything is new/irregular to everyone, including the PSB, nothing should be taken for granted we should recognize that everything is potentially open to change.
Personal note: People should check the current situation at the time when they need to act.

Kunming neighborhoods face water rationing
发布者There really is an argument for limited all year round water restrictions, and not just waiting till it reaches crisis and then implementing crisis measures.
Interview: Environmentalist Li Yuan
发布者Taiyangneng (solar heating systems) can be wasteful but need not be. Ours has a small wind driven pump on the roof that constantly circulates the water around the house, so that there is always hot water throughout the system, close to every tap.
Chinese academic ponders globe-spanning railways
发布者@ Blobbles,
I agree, the train to the US would not be that great. A journey for enthusiasts perhaps.
Look at Chinese travelers today, who takes the 2-3 day journeys now? Those without the means to pay for another choice. I do not see it being a feasible link for business travelers.
Rail links to the US would be useful for freight trains, but they will not be doing 300kph in the foreseeable future.
