One clarification is the the "PSB" you mention is not the main one on Beijing road, but rather the entry exit bureau nearby on Tuodong Lu.
Where did I mention that the PSB was in Beijing Road?
Thanks a lot. I will pass this on. There are many agencies that provide this service but I was looking for one that someone had recently used and received satisfactory service. Thanks again.
This is exactly why I am asking for information from someone who has recently used an agency and can confirm that they are legit.
Has anyone else got a 10 yr visa within the last 6 months who can give me the name, address or website of the agency used and can confirm they are legit.
In the situation I described above about the 8 guys beating up another guy. If I had grabbed a smaller guy, rather than the biggest guy there, I would have surely started a gang fight and they would have turned on me. When I grabbed the big guy, I simultaneously yelled Enough! in English which they could not understand. But they could see in my eyes that I was ready to throw down with the lot of them and they did absolutely nothing. I pity the fool - Mr. T.
who says kids saying laowai is a verbal attack? me or you?
Are you aware of what you wrote before you hit the Post button?
I think most foreigners fail to understand the meaning of this situation. One kid will make the others aware that there is a foreigner present by saying laowai. There is no malice in this. It is like any one of us saying, look at the that cat over there or see that person in a wheelchair or look at the very tall person or very short person or look at the sexy girl.
Another situation that is not understood by foreigners is the Hello issue. Most chinese are lacking in self confidence they are always talking with that nervous laugh when they encounter strangers. When they say Hello and seem to be laughing they are NOT mocking you, they are just awkwardly trying to be friendly by saying hello.

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.

A quick guide to Kunming's Metro Line 2
Posted byTo get to the Train station subway entrance you have to walk completely around the building. You can walk around on either side of the building but it is about a 10-15 walk. It is not very convenient. Also, because of the beefed up security, all the back doors of the train station are locked so you can not walk through the train station.
At this time, the station on Huan Chen Nan Lu is a bit more convenient.

Posted byI think having a child in this day and age is insane. To put a child in school now is inhumane and borders on child abuse. Kids are in school all day, followed by evening classes such as english or piano or some other ridiculous thing, then homework till all hours of the night. Pressure from all directions and no time to be a kid. I would hate to be a kid now - anywhere!
