What city smelled bad? There are 25 provinces in Cambodia.
No idea what he does in Cambodia, he is merely an acquaintance. I just know he is very content because he does not have any visas issues to deal with for him or his chinese wife. He previously lived in Thailand and the visa problems were becoming an issue.
I love hot tropical weather (very healthy). As for shopping malls, I do not see them as a leisure activity, empty people go to shopping malls to kill time or to be entertained and waste money on useless items. Bars and Karaoke is another activity of the boring and addicted. There is lots to see and do in Cambodia. Great place to be if one likes nature. With 25 provinces to choose from I cannot imagine anyone can be bored in Cambodia. Great people.
Laos is another great choice but the visa quickly becomes an issue if one wants to stay long term.
I have an acquaintance that has been living in Cambodia for 3 years with his Chinese wife. The visa issue is great for both of them as they do not need to work or put money in the bank as they do in Thailand. They can get either a 6 month or 1 year visa without any problems. Cambodia is inexpensive, not like Japan or Korea. Korea has never appealed to me, mainly because of the cold weather. As you stated earlier, Japan is very expensive and too crowded.
How long is each stay?
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.

Kunming's bike share options: A user guide
Posted byWhat a catastrophe! Recently visited Nanning, Guangxi which also has a bike program. All the bikes are uniform in color (Orange) and there is 1 type of payment method. They are neatly placed in bike racks all over the city. They come in clusters of 20 and they are found at every subway station in groups of 20, 40, and 60 depending on location. There are cameras mounted on either side of the bike racks for safety and supervision. People can easily find the bike racks and use the bikes and return them to conveniently located bike racks in other parts of the city.
Kunming has 3 types of bikes and 3 types of payment. There are very few bike racks so there are no central locations to get a bike if you need them. I live at the edge of the city in a village and there are bikes scattered everywhere. The people here use them, drive them home and park the bike it in front of their door where no one else can use them. They now have their own private bikes that they can use and abuse and when it gets destroyed they just go get another one. The bike sits idle all day until that person (Temporary owner) is ready to use it again. Kunming should learn from the many other cities that use bikes and create a system that serves all. I am sure the companies who operate these bikes will lose a lot of money from this program.

Posted byI enjoy reading the articles on this site but what really drives me nuts is when the article does not clearly state where this place is located - a basic essential in writing - missing.
Village name is great - how about a county and a prefecture along with that.
Very annoying and NOT the first time.
Fuxian shampoo incident becomes national topic
Posted by1 - Once the image was published on Chinese social media the firestorm began, and continues unabated nearly two weeks later.
2 - although some more vocal microbloggers have called for a police investigation and arrests.
