KickassTorrents (KAT), has been apprehend by the US authorities and the site's domains seized.
There is the key word - seized - by the most corrupt and bankrupt (morally + financially) country in the world.
Wait till you to try to get a hotel. Not like mainland China where you can get a room for 200 RMB. Expect to pay a pretty penny for a tiny nasty room. If kids are in tow, expect to pay more. The 100 for the train will seem like nothing. Bring ATM card and plenty of cash.
God bless the USA and their love of IPR and patents.
Yes, very good - this is exactly the agenda. Complete 100% control of your life. Every time I use an ATM out of my area my account gets locked - NO money for 24-48 hours while I am travelling.
They say is for MY security - but it is to control. Withdrawls from the banks have limits - limits for your own money (50,000 RMB in 1 day) - now that is control. That is to prevent runs on banks when SHTF - it is to protect themselves.
The discount I mentioned at the theater is just a discount for anyone who uses wechat. No money required in any account. If you pay using wechat (your phone to their register - still pay cash) you get a 50 rmb discount. Now that is to get as many people hooked to further control.
Cashless society is the goal. Does anyone every answer phones any more - NO! So when you have a problem you have STOP living and go fix their problem they created.
Examples - a 5 yr old was not allowed to fly because he was on the NO-Fly list. So what should the parents do, go on vacation and let the 5 y/o fix his problems. Of course not, vacation cancelled, non refundable tickets lost for entire family. Does the govt reimburse you - NO!
A guy goes to apply for social security, finds out that he is dead - he spends more than 2 years trying to prove he is still alive.
We already know that if you owe a nickel to the IRS they will come get their money. Do they tell you as soon as they discover the problem - NO. They wait until you incur penalties and fines and you end up paying hundreds.
Owe money to the IRS, too bad, no need for court, they just go into your bank account and get with penalties and fines. If they are wrong they return your money years later but with no penalites or fines.
You are deemed a terrorist because you went to a protest - your account is frozen. No money for you until this is resolved - takes months or years - Hehe!
FBI raids, they will confiscate all you own and good luck trying to get it back After you prove you are innocent and they made a mistake.
No results found.

New high-speed rail line to link Kunming with Dali
Posted byLife in Yunnan just keeps getting better. A 2 hour train ride to Dali is a lot better then taking the 4-5 hour bus ride. Not to mention the delays when there is a traffic accident.

Posted byEveryone needs to contribute - Now it begins - Yes, we must contribute but when the population does not make their deadline (Dec 31), we must pay - another tax coming just around the corner.
Just like life insurance in the good old USA, you will pay for it whether you want it or not. If you don't pay, they just steal it out of your bank account.
Agenda 21 - controlled by the UN (1 World Govt) will be in charge.
The Global Warming Lie has now conveniently morphed into Climate Change since the weather did not cooperate with the CO2 lies.
Funny how there is no mention of the real problems in the world. The EPA raises the safety limits on poisons every year so that the multinational companies can continue to pollute and make a profit. In the meantime, we get to eat, drink and breathe more pollutants.
Snapshot: Dali and Weishan
Posted byThere are several noodle shops that are still run by very old people. I saw a beautiful OLD noodle machine (at least 50-70 years old) in one shop and I would love to buy it (Keep an eye on the obituaries). It just needs to be cleaned up because it has decades of flour stuck on it and it will make a wonderful addition to a home museum.
Weishan has not been commercialized yet. Any smart foreigner with some business savy can buy up a lot of antiques very cheaply and make a great cafe/museum/information center/guesthouse like the one in Xishuangbanna; he has his fingers in every pot.
Lots to see in the surrounding area - great place to retire, still make an income, and be the #1 laowai of the town.
Heijing offers the same.
