Forums > Living in Kunming > Possible free 2 month visa extension I don't have an answer, but questions that come to mind are:
@AlPage48. When you say local police station. Is that the place where you get your certificate of residence for your area of the city? Or is it just the nearest police station?
@Markus, the same question to you as well.

I understand the desire to discuss tangential issues, and you are free to do that but please start a new thread, or add to the Keep Calm and Carry on Thread here www.gokunming.com/[...]
It would be good to keep this thread focused on the Corona Virus, because it is such an important topic right now, and it is where many visitors to the forum will look first.
Forums > Living in Kunming > Possible free 2 month visa extension I am fine with your use of the word possible. People need to check their own situation for themselves. Because everything is new/irregular to everyone, including the PSB, nothing should be taken for granted we should recognize that everything is potentially open to change.
Personal note: People should check the current situation at the time when they need to act.

Baiyun Lu closed for 18 months, civilian "air raid shelter" to be built
Posted byYou probably couldn't get a mandate to redevelop an area and build an underground shopping mall. Especially if it causes major disruption.
There is an existing mandate to build bomb shelters, and there are added benefits to both the infrastructure and opportunities for business that can be captured too :-)

University in Yunnan requires students to run 240 kilometers for graduation
Posted byMy university and tertiary students only had lectures between 8am and noon, Many didn't even turn up for lectures, but would turn up for exams. There is an old joke in China, that university is hard to get in (Gaokao), but easy to get out (very hard to fail). I was told by my Dean, in one provincial level uni., that if SS failed and exam they would resit up to twice and would be given an automatic pass after the second resit.
At a tertiary college in Kunming, I had about 30 regular SS out of 60 on the register, but 110 turned in exam papers. Half of them scored less than 30% (and I had pretty much told them the answers and where to find them (in the PPTs I gave them). Lo and behold, I was told by management that the SS all had to pass, including the guy who got 9%.
The problems of students staying in the dormitories, not working and playing computer games has been in the Chinese news several times in recent years. Unless the authorities have got a grip of this recently, I doubt it will have changed.
