Forums > Living in Kunming > Student Visa Crackdown

Yeah, I do... because the police warned my wife and I that they are dirty. The education bureau warned my wife and I not to take them to court after not giving me classes even though I had an obvious case against them. They also bullied another school that was going to give me a visa after I refused to continue taking classes there; oh wait, they didn't give me any classes

Forums > Travel Yunnan > China Eastern. Why bother??

Lately many airlines have had unspecified delays or it's often "due to traffic control." My wife said it's because the military gets full priority. Which isn't as bad as it sounds because usually they are responding to a natural disaster somewhere. That's what I tell myself when I get in a 3 am anyways ;).

This has happened before, but usually your school just has to clear the vacation first. Push come to shove they tell you to call in sick and obviously don't use your passport at the hotels.

Your school probably just pissed off the KCEL mafia that always bullies other schools since their management knows nothing else.

Nothing new, but still effective. If your school isn't doing something similar when teaching/previewing vocabulary then you should find a new school.

Save your money, and just search online for "mnemonics."

Traditionally people studying at private Chinese schools would come on a tourist visa. A few years ago the private schools themselves would even recommend it since many students didn't show up. Win for both since students could shop around when they arrived and not get stuck at some school with terrible management like KCEL.

But with the visa reforms I have no idea now. I know in the past the government occasionally stopped the practice, but usually only for a few months.

Also look at the roads that were just recently redone. In the north they aren't even a year old and the top layer is rapidly decaying. When the holes get big enough to do serious damage to small cars they just put a traffic cone in it....

If it's banned for industrial use doesn't that mean there are some pretty nasty heavy metals in the water? Why would they allow shrimp to be fished in the past? Do they want people to get cancer or something?

Cheese tasted great. Much better than other pizza joints.

Excellent salad bar. Hamburgers are usually ok. The fancier dishes were a little lacking.

Giving it a 4 stars for the salad bar. If you were going there for "fine dining" then probably best to go somewhere else.

The store also has some nice imported food(though obviously Metro is cheaper for some things). The freshly baked goods are nice too.

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.

Not bad. Pretty much what you would expect, but expensive for China.

Expensive, but decent bread. Other places are better, but not bad if you're in a hurry.
