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.
Kunming's bike share options: A user guide

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.
