    • Yunnan tourism to get more touristy

      Hei Philou,
      What does the advertisement for this so called Ecotourism travel company has to do with the article? What alternatives do you actually offer in relation to the topic? Maybe we should start a discussion about what the currently so popular words Ecotourism and Ecolodges mean in the first place. As a Ecotourism Company you should actually be in favour of entrance/preservation fees!

    • Kunming jittery after another bus incident, angry passengers clash with police at airport

      I had to wait for 7 hours for a flight from Kunming to Lijiang with Shanghai Airlines 2 month ago. The official explanation was also "due to bad weather". My friend who waited for me in Lijiang confirmed me that the weather was perfetly fine in Lijiang at the time. Therefore it was a lie. From the Shanghai Airlines staff was nobody around - no information, no food - nothing. Only when the people started to beat up the poor guy behind the small desk at the gate, somebody from the Management (or so it seemed) showed up and some food was served. A kind of an "interesting" experience for a foreigner....

      Does anyone know a good tailor in Kunming that can do tailor-made suits? Does not have to be cheap but good quality...and fit.

      Try the Watson Shop next to Carrefour in the centre. I bought them from there about 2 years ago. Good luck.

      I agree with birdabroad. And what is even more disturbing is the fact that the same company received now the rights to "develop" the Yuanyang Rice Terraces. There are more examples of places with excessive entrance fees: Puzhehei, Deqin, San Ta Si, Songtsalin Temple in Zhongdian - just to name a few. That is how it works in Yunnan after all, I can live with that. It is just a petty that the local population don't see much of these entrance fees....they seem to disapear....

      I would not call this project a scam. However, the price seems definitely too high. Domestic flight prices are as well. Such programs are a good experience for kids, I agree. I had the chance to work in a Summer Camp in the States a long time ago and it was an unforgettable cultural experience. That camp lasted for 10 weeks. Your friend should ask herself what cultural experience can her kid get in 7 days? Not to mention flying half way around the world for this? Furthermore there are places that are more in need for funds than Shaxi. Shaxi has already seen a remarkable amount of financial and technical support by the Swiss Government. Now that the Swiss pull out, the local officials probably look for other foreign source for income - that is understandable. Of course this company works very well with the local government. That is not surprising as long as all the local government officials and their "associates" get their shares! Having said this I would also be thinking twice about the "large donnation to the local community" as RP puts it. What happens to this money is out of their control. But then again: It is a profit organisation after all....and all their hard work should not be for free!

      乐客比萨

      I share Bernie's experience. Food at Rocco is up and down. I went there 3 times: First time was really good, 2nd time I had same experience with a poorly stuffed Calzone Pizza and the 3rd time the wine got poured all over the table and my trousers by the waiter......
