Please be very aware of fake news doing the rounds in WeChat groups and on other social media channels such as Youtube and Facebook. If there is no link to a verified and trustworthy source but only text — however official it may sound — a screenshot — however real it may look — or a blurry video — however dramatic the scene — it is likely fake or not relevant to the situation here in Yunnan.
Please check the original source and don't spread it until you can vouch for it being 100% real. If you are not sure or concerned please feel free to forward the picture/message/video to us and we'll verify or debunk it for you.
Be also aware of the fact that spreading panic and fake news is illegal in China and that there might be serious consequences if you engage in this.
Here is a link to an article (in Chinese) that debunks some of the untruths that were doing the rounds when the virus first became a national emergency: www.i-km.com.cn/[...]
As I write, GoKunming is putting together a list of reliable internet sources of information, that will be made available as soon as it is finished. This will include Wechat information where available.
Any speculation or hearsay related to the novel corona virus outbreak is especially sensitive, and will be deleted. On any other topic the normal posting guidelines apply, i.e. you are free to speculate and include hearsay.
This thread had also drifted into the realms of criticizing the government and GoKunming cannot go there.
We hope you are willing to understand that these are not normal times, and accept the decisions of the moderation team.
Yes this is a high tisk period, and yes there have been problems in the past, but I think the HuaXia bank scandal last year put the cat among the pigeons for wealth management schemes in China.
Because there are so few investment opportunities, combined with so few people willing to invest, and with recent regulatory changes the banks need to/have to move money in the markets. This has opened up some more attractive products at the moment.
We have just been offered 5.5% projected annual growth for a wealth management product, and get this, the principle is protected (you cannot lose your original investment). You can invest for limited periods too. We invested for 3 months, as we have some spare cash for that period. I think you can invest for as little as one month.
NB This is not a recommendation for people to go out and invest, it is just a bit of information on another related trend in the market at the moment.
I can't help feeling the participation/contributions to the event would have been higher with a different title to the article. I am cynical, TIC afterall.
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.

Report: Yunnan bonds shaky
发布者I checked and it was still available yesterday. Not sure of minimum period. But three months makes a nice change from the usual minimum of 12.
