I've been there in August. The water seemed a bit chilly, but that's because the sun felt so hot. I went at the man made beach at some big hotel. I think it's called Angsana or something like that.
Yes, and do you know why there were so nice to you? Because I was threatening to sue them at the end of 2009 and they didn't want any more students to be angry at them...
I never said it was a terrible school. I said their management and owner are terrible. Yes, people have good experiences until they have a reason to say no and want to move on.
The reason you don't see more people posting against them is because if you're on their student visa they will threaten you. Tell you that they can cancel your student visa that day, and then ship you out of the country.
Huh? How is Yunnan distinctive from rural areas in any other country with a centrally controlled economic system(which is pretty much any "modern and developed" country today)? How is The Brother's Jiang expanding everywhere in Yunnan different from Starbucks trying to expand in Yunnan?
Do you think Iowa has lost its distinctness because of all the Mexican and Chinese restaurants that have opened up? Oh wait, even though they almost all serve the same food, and their suppliers are almost all the same... it's so much better because they all have a different name... cripes, it's just marketing.
You can go to any city in Yunnan and you will see the same products being sold in all of them. What does it matter if the name of the store is in Chinese or in English? Does this somehow prevent you from speaking to the people who work there? Does it stop you from taking your time? It's just a marketing symbol, get over it.
Seems to be pretty hit or miss. First time I went there the pizza and hamburgers were great. 2nd time the pizza was terrible, and the hamburger was ok. 3rd time the pizza was ok, but people were smoking inside by the time we left. Guess the no smoking policy is not enforced.
Starbucks to market Yunnan coffee in China outlets
