Quickly now. Don't push! The queue starts here to nominate Hua Yang Academy as the best Mandarin Language School in Kunming for 2 years in a row.

Does it get any real votes?

Yeah, of course students are going to vote for the school they are attending. Plus, HuaYang might even get their own staff, friends and family in to cast a few decisive votes, just like last year.

I seem to remember that they had a lot of visa issues this year.

These awards are NEVER unbiased. Don't believe the hype.

should have specific food awards - best pizza, best mixian, best cake from non-artificially inseminated eggs...

people awards: best laowai operating covertly in china

@Ocean

Haha. We both know that at awards time the owners of all of these schools, businesses, whatever, marshal their staff, friends, family, nodding acquaintances and passers by on a three line whip to vote, regardless of anything else. It's just a game - may the best player win!
