  • Yunnan tourism to get more touristy
    Tuesday, 9th June 2009
    Hey Beizhan,
    Thanks for your reply. It's an interesting topic, isn't it? I think so too, especially when living in Yunnan.

    It's not my company. I'm just mentioning it because I do think there are better tourisms than others. And people might not know about it...

    I did some advertisement for the forum post you wrote earlier as well. Hope you can find more people to debate these world dilemmas! Let me advertise yet another company (still not mine) and their view on sustainability vs profitability: http://www.wildchina.com/blog/?p=174

    If you ask me, I think nobody should travel... or live for that matter, it's just too bad for the environnement...
    Seriously though, I like Maggie's positive note!

    I hate to read these "bad" news about tourism in Yunnan... it's not pretty sometimes, and it seems it will only get worse.
    Also read the related GoKunming Forum:

    Of course, there are alternatives (see http://ecotourism.com.cn disclosure: i did the website) and hopefully those are sustainable...

    Thank you to those who came last Tuesday in the Movie Bar, it was a fun open mic!

    The Movie Bar was pretty full and busy, and we're planning to improve the organisation. (suggestions welcome!)

    About the Open Mic:
    - starts at 9pm! we might finish earlier this time (around midnight) so if you are planning to play, don't come to late.
    - Some instruments are available in the bar: a real piano, amplified guitars, djumbe and bongos (percussions). you are welcome to bring your own instrument.
