Forums > Living in Kunming > expat population in Kunming OOOOPs - Who is Roberto Duran? I am old, but not that old (48). I used to watch boxing and I knew all the boxers and their their weight class on regular television (Wide World of Sports) until cable came and provided the same services for a fee. I used to watch the Olympics every 4 years with great excitement with my father until cable came and all that ended. I used to drink water from the tap until the govt decided to give this service to a private owner who filtered the water with the same technology as was done before, except that rather than putting it into a pipe, he put it in a bottle that had to be carried into my house and he raised the price 100 times. Who can forget Roberto Duran and Sugar Ray?
Forums > Living in Kunming > expat population in Kunming I know why I left Amerika and came to China. After serving 20 years in the Marine Corps my eyes began to open and I realized how I, and the entire population in the USA has been fooled. I used to be proud of my service to my country. I met other people like me, who wanted to serve and to help until I realized I was being used for evil purposes. I have met Freemasons, Knights of Columbus, Christians, Muslims, people from NGOs who were just like me - who wanted to give and to serve. But the reality is that at the lower echelons we are fooled and tricked and deceived. Yes, we serve from our hearts but what we dont realize is that our service is used to conceal the true Evil purposes of those who really control us.
It was then that I decided that I will not be a part of this group, organization, religion - call it what you will. I will not let others use my GOOD services to conceal their EVIL purposes.
Abortion, religion, gun control, deforestation, animal rights, you name it, - good people get involved because they care but they are blind and being used. Research any NGO and you will find who they are funded by - the Evil puppeteers who control us in the end.
My best friend from high school who joined the Marines with me worked aboard Air Force One for 3 years. He told me what he witnessed. Another good friend was on Embassy duty for 3 years. Just so you know, only the Marine Corps serves in all embassies around the world. An embassy is just a front for the CIA to filter in their journalist, NGOs, and spies.
As long as we sit here arguing over religion, gun control, and other topics, we remain DIVIDED and th banksters remain LAUGHING at us. All these topics DIVIDE.
I left the USA so that I can no longer be used. It is called GUILT by association. When you realize that yoour Good deeds are being used for alterior evil motives, only then will you say - in the words of Roberto Duran - NO MAS!
Forums > Travel Yunnan > Charge option in train? I have a solution - Turn off all the gadgets and put the toys away in your bag and communicate the old fashioned way with the people around you for those 24 hours. Stay in the present. See how many people in your phone really miss you and observe any withdrawl symptoms from coming off the gadgets.

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.
