Ritta - Glad to see that someone cares about this. It is unfortunate that many young chinese people pay more attention to Feb 14 (western) rather then their own holidays. Feb 14 is very commercialized so more people are reminded of this day as opposed to 7/7. I wish China can Forget or Ignore Feb 14 altogether. Same goes for Xmas and Santa Claus.
@laotou - Well stated. - USA = 300 Million + China = 1.3 Billion
Prison population? Violent Crime? Mental Illness? Drug abuse? Population on Psychotropic Drugs? Effectiveness of Education? Govt Corruption? Wars of Aggression? Mass Shootings? Police Brutality? This is exactly why more and more foreigners want to come to China - to get away from all this.
More info on Vietnam Consulate - If you call, there is no one who speaks English. English speakers only when you visit the office.
Wondering what reasons different people have for coming to LIVE in China. I am NOT asking about tourists who come to travel or students who come to attend school.
Anyone who has watched just a few episodes of Lie To Me, or anyone with a counseling or psycholgy background, can easily see that Chief Oates is lieing. His demeanor, affect, body language, change in posture, when receiving and answering and avoiding questions is very clear.
No results found.
The new Visa office is located at 118 Tuo Dong Road. There is no number on the building yet so do not bother to look for it. There are 2 passport photo shops on either side of the building. The office is located directly in front of the Kunming Museum. The bus stop is named - Shi Bo Wu Guan - Bus 1, 62, 109, 117, 145, 213, A1 and K3 stop directly in front of the office. Foreigners need to go to the 3rd floor. The Tuo Dong Stadium is located to the right of the office while Baita Road is located to the left of the office.

Posted bydeposit of 99 yuan.. deposit is automatically returned upon each completed payment.
All the 99 yuan deposits can NOT make up for what I saw today during my 40 minute bus ride.
3 bikes which had the seat completely removed and 1 bike that had the from wheel removed.
Cost of repairs and cost of sending workers to do the repairs - Haha!

Posted byWhat did I see today?
Saw 2 OFO workers wearing yellow vests with letters OFO on the back repairing over a dozen bikes in a street corner near my house.
Saw 2 OFO bikes chained near the rear entrance of Wicker basket. Apparantly they are now OWNED by 2 workers there.
I predict that OFO will be out of business in 3 months. Once a person gets the combination to a bike, it becomes private property and the company can no longer get any revenue from that bike.
Kids are smart and have time and they knnow that people seldom turn the dial of the combination or they just turn the 2 center dials. Within a few minutes of fiddling with a lock anyone can usually get the combination at which time the bike becomes private property. This is why most of the bikes I see kids riding are the yellow OFO bikes.
With no GPS there is no way to track these bikes - Hehe!

Posted byI wonder how many people who have commented here have actually used this program here in Kunming.
Bikes used in other provinces or in other countries is NOT the same as here in Kunming.
Since the bikes are scattered everywhere and people are hiding the bikes so they can have sole use of it - how can any person find a bike to use. Unless one is willing to walk long distances and has already paid to be able to use all 3 types of bikes - this program is absolutely useless.
I caught a slumdog hiding a bike in my garden 2 days ago. I see plenty of bikes all over the city so there are plenty to choose from but hundreds of the bikes are intentioanlly hidden after use so they can be used at the doorstep the following day.
In my Resd Qtr I saw 3 bikes totally destroyed - 1 had a flat, other had rear wheel missing and other had handle bars bent. How does anyone bend handle bars unless it is done intentionally. This is just 2 months after the program has begun.
The bikes need to be put in a bike rack where they are easily accessible to all as is in many other civilized cities here in China like Gansu and Guangxi. I am sure there are others.
