I am just wondering why some users still comment here in the last 2 days but do NOT verify? What reasons would they have for not verifying?

Forums > Living in Kunming > Anyone replace a Chinese style with Western Toilet You need a good worker who will do the job right. Main problem is that when they install the new western toilet, they dont seal the old large whole properly and then you have leaking into the neighbors ceiling. Then you have to pay someone else to do it all over again.
I watch workers all day because they want to save on materials. They will do a (8:1) sand:cement mix and they fill it with broken brick to use less cement. This is worthless because the sand and brick absorb water and it will leak 1 year later.

Posted byI have no idea where this little fellow came from. He came from under some bushes near the entrance to our apartment. Maybe someone was keeping him in a garage and he got away or he was released from fear of getting caught.
Zhiziluo: Yunnan's mountaintop ghost town
Posted byI was here in 2009. Actually the best way to get there is to go from Dali or Baoshan. When you arrive in Liuku you can take a bus to Pihe. In Pihe you can rent a minivan to take you up to the top of the hill. This will save you a lot of money because the distance from Pihe is much shorter then from Liuku.

Posted byI told my wife to call the police because I remember reading this article. She called the police and a few minutes later, a woman from the Rare animal protection Bureau called my wife. The police arrived and took the critter away before my neighbor got his grubby hands on it.
The woman from the Protection Bureau called again and told my wife that they would pick up the little critter the next morning from the police station.
Apparantly, someone from the police station called the protection Bureau. I was surprised my wife got the call and also surprised that she told us what she was going to do.
This is the number of the woman (LIU) from the protection Bureau who called my wife - 18082722065.

Posted byA few minutes ago I saw one of these little beasts in my residential quarter. We called the police immediately so they can come pick him up. I had a arguement with someone in my residential quarter who was trying to take him away in a bag before the police arrived.
