Liuming,

I agree with you totally and I understand your meaning of funny. I also share your sentiments regarding the right to post any opinions, regardless of how ridiculous they may seem.

Unfortunately, the moderators of GoKunming do NOT share in our sentiments and there has been some censorship here in recent months as well as some recent posts concerning guidelines, rules and censorship. As you can read from some of the replies, some members are eager to see more censorship and more locking of threads, and SPAM buttons.

I personally do NOT approve of ANY type of censorship because the moment it begins, censorship will have no end.

I perfectly understand why the moderators locked a few threads lately. The problem is that a few people are writing some absurd things here and it causes the moderators to do something about it. Of course, the only option is to lock the thread.

I hope the OP of this post will realize that this type of posting will eventually result in locking this thread = locking a thread means censorship.

Crazy, I am pleading with you to please look at how many of your previous posts have been locked. Remember, locking a post equals censorship. Please do NOT force the moderators to begin this course of action because once it begins it will NOT end.

Funny? There is absolutely nothing funny about this. GoKunming used to be a wonderful source of information and a great place for expats to communicate, share information and learn about what is going on in the community. Unfortunately, this is no longer the case.

Crazy - I think some psychiatric help may be more useful rather than going to some restaurants if you feel this way - But I usually feel uncomfortable, like people are looking at me or judging me. I feel like I am the outcast because I am dining alone.

Does anyone else ever feel this way? Only adolescents during their egocentric stage of development.

The 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.

GK still has not learned to give specific information when writing articles. Where in the world is FuYuan County? It would be nice if the writers did a little research and gave the specific location of this county. Is it Wenshan? Qujing? Where?

Yunnan 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.

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.
