Seems a bit overly generous for JD standards, but will look into it, thanks!
Restaurants and stores at shopping centers like TKP, 财富中心, and COHO are also having 50% 12/12 deals.
Go to their WeChat mini program or official accounts to take advantage.
bhamast, I've mentioned elsewhere that 58同城 and Anjuke may be useful resources for apartment hunting. Various toggle tools are at your disposal to filter listings. Touching base with landlords directly may serendipitously nullify one month in rent in 中介费. Granted agents may disguise as 业主/房东 for clickbaiting, so be wary of that.
Those seeking to lease may also find said avenues quicker in reaching suitable tenants than would commissioning real estate agents whose main prerogative is purchases, if not ascertaining potential buyers/sellers for future transactions. Highly recommend leaving agencies your secondary phone number to avoid year round hassling.

Which area or specific community/compound/development(s) in Kunming have doubled in five?
Perhaps special cases, like sought after locations that finally got 房产证 greenlight after a decade of red tape holdup.
According to anjuke asking price data, in 2019 thus far, average Kunming property prices increased just ~750yuan per sqm. A very modest 5.6% rise for the year.
This estimation is on par with market observation and hearsay, with moderate annual deviations compared to previous year-on-year.

I have found Alipay transport features to work best for both subay and bus embarkation scanning.
Similar to Didi, Alipay's built-in bus map route is also easy to use and accurate. Hello Bike, new Hello ebike, and taxi hailing also available within app.
Located inside Alipay app, under "Traffic" mini program (交通出行): First tab is for bus, next for subway, then bike renting, last tab to the right is cab hailing.
Right now Alipay is offering promotional 40% discount if you purchase week long bus package. 30% off for metro/subway card. Discount valid for two trips a day for seven days.
Convenient and widely used by local commuters (younger professionals and students) for a good reason.

Register Now! Compulsory Kunming-wide ebike registration ends April 15
Posted byI saw the new Alipay Hello ebike taxied by side of road the other day. Tried to scan the barcode to test ride the battery powered baby, but it was already on loan to someone else.
You can see pictures of it, rates, and ebike whereabouts on your Alipay app > Hellobike miniprogram on main screen > 电动车 (third tab).
Promotion offers for maiden launch are as follows:
79cny/7 days
238/month
Buy 2 months for 1 month free (~5.5/day)
You can also buy them for over 2 grand, which imo is a bit pricey.
This may be a great means of transportation for short-term visitors. No red tape license seems to be necessary. Though not many ebike vehicles around town nor during his water testing phase.
Snapshot: A trip to Kunming and beyond in the 80s
Posted byWhen I walked down the new Nanqiang Street the other day,
I smiled at the ancestors captured in time.
The continuation of shopkeepers, who embodied the hopes of their fathers. The same fears shared by mothers a generation prior.
While grappling with impermanence, their ancestors smiled back.
The ultimate foundation where our feet stood and smiles met were untainted by age.
Authenticity is a matter of perspective of the beholder.
Snapshot: A trip to Kunming and beyond in the 80s
Posted byThe evanescent appeals of old Kunming may only be captured in bygone memories and these still photos, but new blood is being transfused.
This is no more evident than Nanqiang Pedestrian St. (南强步行街, GPS 25.034788, 102.714101) where young entrepreneurs are setting up an eclectic taste to this particular pedestrian street near Nanping Jie.
Under rows of lanterns and lights, semi-portable food stalls and novel handicrafts vendors are mixing new flavours to our KM night market scene. A must visit for foodies. The early 20th century Sino-Vietnam train theme is cool.
I expect this site under development to be very popular among younger locals and visitors alike.

The first of gaggle of gulls has arrived
Posted byA viral video will ruffle some feathers.
Unruly visitor at Haigeng Daba was captured grabbing the feet of a gull and not letting go, perhaps hurting the poor bird as it finally escaped. Balantant incidents like these seem to reoccur annually to
our birds.
The perpetrator was reprimanded by other bystanders. Imo, the image of his face should be processed in the police facial recognition database to be formally charged and fined, social credit scored reduced what not.
This type of citizen involvement neighborhood watch may diminish future assaults on our seasonal cohabitants.
