Bloody hell there’s some misogynistic old farts here! Slinky Chinese women in qipaos? Attractive western women with boyfriends should dress like salafist Muslims?
And what the fuck are “traditional women with traditional values”?
@bubblyian, that’s some shit you’ve posted...”divorce tourism”. You’re assuming the Chinese wife already has a visa to husbands “western country” & especially in the YS can afford a divorce lawyer.
@ debaser. Getting a Chinese license the way you state is easy IF you have a visa that allows >90 data entry each visit. So basically a resident permit. You can’t legally get a long term Chinese driving license on s tourist visa.
I bought a Satnav 6 years ago when I first started driving here. Had the pinyin version installed. Horrible software & interface. Searching was a nightmare.
I’ve been using my iPhone for the last 4-5 years.
The latest version of Apple Maps is very good. Data is from 高德地图 (Autonavi) & it gives lane directions & camera/traffic warnings. It’s not great for saving locations so outside cities for regular locations I use Autonavi (English version). It’s very good but has a few small bugs.
Baidu maps is very good if you can deal with it being in Chinese
Your iPhone 7 probably won’t work on China Mobile as already stated but to double check try www.willmyphonework.net. Also double check it’s not network locked before leaving home.

Liverpool brings football philosophy and training to Kunming
Posted by"Kunming was more recently thought to be in the hunt for a new Chinese Super League franchise. Rumors were rampant that European coaching legend Sven-Göran Eriksson was considered a front-runner to run the team, but nothing ever came from such efforts."
Sven is past it! He's done nothing in his time in China at GZ Fuli, SIPG or Shenzhen.
Government sues parents to get kids back to school
Posted by@Janjal, good point about 15 years old & marriage. What about these (combined) points:
"while the other two are working in another city. Their parents have promised the two children will return to school next semester."
"A kid working in the city can bring back 20,000 yuan [US$3,000] a year," an official at a county-level education bureau in Yunnan told local media in 2014"
So local officials are condoning children working illegally underage? First quote is more valid as it refers directly to this case! They know two of the kids are working illegally & havent dome anything about it except get "promises" from the parents that they'll send them back to school "next semester"!

Up to 1,000 Dali businesses to close in face of new policy
Posted by"However, business owners such as Mr Zhao, who spent six million yuan (US$870,000) to open a guesthouse, worries about his livelihood and those of his employees. He blames government inaction and "hasty decisions" for the entire situation, saying:"
Well maybe if he'd built his guesthouse properly with connections to sewage, etc he wouldn't be in this position now...
