Forums > Living in Kunming > Reform of for-profit education My guess would be it is aimed at the tutors who specialize in zhongkao and gaokao testing, and other similar tests. Many of these tutors are local teachers who are earning a lot on the side by referrals from the schools.
It may not affect SAT, IELTS centers and cramming schools as these are not 'core subjects'. That is my thinking. The other thing is if local interpretation of the rules is going to happen.
Forums > Living in Kunming > Reform of for-profit education I suppose it depends on what they define as tutoring in core education. If they mean coaching students to pass Chinese school compulsory exams and tests, then that will not affect many foreign teachers.
The stuff on pre-school teaching will affect a few though.
Forums > Living in Kunming > COVID 19 vaccine for foreigners The temporary residence permit replaces the visa. Visa gets you into china then you need to apply for residence permit in 30 days. Temporary residence permits for work, student, etc. usually 12 months. These are issued by PSB entry and exit administration and stuck in your passport. Residence registration paperwork is from the local cop shop that deal with this in your area.
All the foreigners I know who had shots were teachers. They automatically had insurance with their job from the school. They all work for or are attached to a local chinese school.
Forums > Living in Kunming > Covid vaccine mandatory for all adults? Quote "There was never anything remotely on this scale imposed on the world during SARS, Swine Flu or even Ebola. Clearly something else is going on this time." Millions of deaths are the something else.
Forums > Living in Kunming > Covid vaccine mandatory for all adults? So I am all in favor of governments who are able to govern, and make tough calls when needed.

Posted byI am with lemon on this. There are good owners but in a culture where a dog is not mans best friend, there are more bad ones. There are also problem breeds and the good dogs get lumped in with the bad. As for the muzzle law, well laws don't mean much here.

The first of gaggle of gulls has arrived
Posted byThey have been around for about 3 weeks now. They would manage even if people didn't feed them, they are scavengers and survive the rest of the year without human input. I also doubt that they only visit Kunming.
