A couple of organizations come to mind:

Population Services International:

The International HIV/AIDS Alliance:

There's also Daytop, which is focused on HIV/AIDS prevention with regard to intravenous drug use:

Leprosy is still an issue in this part of the country, there's a group called Joy in Action that works with communities affected by leprosy in SW China:

Forums > Food & Drink > Vietnamese Pho anyone?

There have been some Vietnamese establishments in Kunming over the past few years including one behind the Worker's Cultural Palace on Baoshan Jie and also a small place behind the Wenlin PSB on Wenhua Xiang. Unfortunately none of the places I've become aware of have managed to stay in business.

As I understand it, the Vietnamese population in Kunming is one of the largest of any country represented here... perhaps the majority of Vietnamese living here are students or are working for Vietnamese companies.

Regardless of why there is almost no Vietnamese food here, I'm guessing that there are a lot of people who would be happy to see a Vietnamese restaurant open up shop.

We put the date below the headline... the day it goes up it says "today", the next day it says "yesterday", after two days the date is displayed.

Thanks Doubting Thomas, that was an unintentional omission on my part.

The source article said different government departments closed power stations, cement factories and the like which didn't meet environmental standards, as well as enterprises which discharged dust or sulfur dioxide.

According to what they've told us, the outdoor music/BBQ thing will start later than usual at 6:00 - I originally wrote 3:00. Thanks for catching that.

Four stars for a great restaurant with friendly staff.

I give Tusheng Shiguan a fifth star for its goal of promoting environmentally sound food production.

My favorite Tengchong-style restaurant in Kunming. Their ersi and erkuai are trucked over from Tengchong and are the real deal — Kunming ersi and erkuai do not compare.

The restaurant itself is a bit jumbled, but there are a couple of tables outside in the courtyard that are nice to sit at when the weather's pleasant.

Don't believe them when they say they don't have lufu.

Tom and Jiajia have been baking up a storm lately. Thanks to them I have delicious sourdough bread to toast on the space heater in the office.

The Bircher muesli is probably the healthiest and most delicious breakfast around.

Pound for pound, one of the best little Western restaurants in China. 佳佳万岁

Just had gnocchi in mushroom sauce and a glass of wine for dinner on the balcony in mid-January. Awesome.
