Forums > Living in Kunming > Verification Yes, this is definitely a great start and it will reduce the BS factor greatly. I checked your profile blobbles and I can see that you have verified your email.
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 > Verification I just realized that anyone can still write and reply to a post here even if they have NOT verified their email address.
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 byThe new cards can be used on both the subway and the buses. However, the 20 Yuan deposit is NOT refundable. This is a recent scam I discovered recently when I turned in my old bus card to get the new subway + bus card. If you do not beleive me - go ask for yourself. You are charged 1 Yuan every month until the 20 Yuan deposit is depleted.

Yunnan reopens 13 international border crossings
Posted byYunnan reopens 13 international border crossings - although the title of the article claims 13 International borders have been opened, I find it very hard to believe that they are in fact International and Not Local borders.
Recently I have seen many post regarding Myanmar with much heresay and conjecture being passed with the sole exception of Peter99 who has actually crossed the border and knows what he is talking about. Of the 13 borders mentioned above, 5 are for Myanmar. Lets see if one of those posters makes their way to one of these small borders and tries to cross into Myanmar without success.
The Hekou border in Honghe has always been opened and is certainly an International border. I have no idea why this border is mentioned as one of the 13 borders that has been RE-opened.
The Border in Mohan, Mengla, Xishuangbanna has also always been opened and is certainly an International border. Again, no idea why this border is mentioned as being RE-opened.
I caution anyone who wants to use any of the borders mentioned here to go verify the information at the appropropriate Consulate.
