As I am sure you know, Kunming is NOT a big fruit producer.
Yes, many things can grow here but in the hotter climates with a lot of sun and rain all one needs to do is just drop a seed into the ground and God does all the work for you.
For me, food is by far the main reason I am leaving Yunnan - the food sucks here - everything is topped with red chilly which I can NOT bear. The Cantonese food in Guangxi is GREAT! I don't have to eat nasty noodles 3 times a day any more.
Prices are just about the same as Kunming and I sure do NOT mind the hot weather.
Another reason I prefer Nanning is the effect the pollution from construction as well as the dry weather have on me here in Kunming. The day I leave Kunming, I immediately STOP producing so much phlegm and mucus. My nose is NOT dry and I don't have dry blood in my nose every morning in Nanning - I can breathe!
Good Luck to all!
No, still keeping both our homes; in Kunming and Dali.
I am making the BIG move to Nanning, Guangxi next month. I have been back several times to do some apt hunting. The place has really changed since I was there 14 years ago. Here are a few of the things I really like about Nanning from my visits the last few months.
1 - Cars and buses stop for pedestrians on crosswalks.
2 - People, bikes, and cars respect traffic lights and wait patiently for their turn.
3 - Bus drivers are not in a mad rush and they wait for older people to sit down before moving.
4 - People on buses give their seats to older people and women.
5 - Buses have a TV but the volume is completely turned OFF so a bus ride is much more relaxing.
6 - Cars and buses do NOT blow their horn all the time.
7 - Bikes stations are conveniently located at all subway stations and in many other locations - NOT a catastrophe like Kunming.
8 - Men do NOT smoke so much as they do in the tobacco capital of China (Yunnan). Very rare to see a smoker on the street.
9 - Many old parts of the city are still intact and have NOT been demolished like here in Kunming.
10 - There are benches everywhere in the city so people can just sit and rest. All bus stops have benches.
11 - A lot more E-bikes then in Kunming but much less cars and traffic.
12 - The people are friendly and answer questions politely.
13 - The best thing I like is that all bus stops have the name of the street corners. This is so convenient for tourists because one knows exactly where one is all the time.
14 - Nanning is much more civilized than Kunming in so many ways.

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 byGovts are already full of rich parasites who exert tremendous power, to decide who does & who does not contribute to society? Can anyone name a benevolent ruler other than King Arthur (legend) and Hugo Chavez who is truly interested in the welfare of its people.

Posted byTo understand this dilema one must first understand that:
1- The drug problem is a govt sponsored program in most countries of the world.
2 - Cannabis is an illegal drug because it interferes with another govt sponsored program - disease and death (Medicine) - this is why pot is considered worse than cocaine.
3 - There is no rehabilitation from drug addiction - there is just substitution from one illegal addiction to another legal addiction.
4 - There is no need to define drugs because the govts already define it for all of us. This article is not about beer and cigaretts because the govt has already deemed these addictions necessary.
5 - Govts do not care about health, they are only interested in profit.

Posted byA drug user is a drug user. Casual use or addictive use is of no consequence. There are many alcoholics who do not think they are alcoholics. Execute them all and the drug problems will be resolved. Mao did a great job geting rid of the opium addicts in the 50s and 60s.

Posted byDeath penalty for all drug users. This is the only way to win the war on drugs. Smugglers are just businessmen who are supplying the customers with what they demand. Get rid of the demand - just execute all drug users since they serve no purpose in any society.
