Plus the fact that exposure to many disease is higher in China than most western countries, but with many western parents not vaccinating their kids that is changing too.

Awful for the lady, For some more info. msn.ynet.com/3.1/1205/10/7077136.html

"The lady was by herself on the subway when the English guy approached her and asked for the time, he then followed her and sexually assaulted her (groped her),,,,,,,,,The English man is on a tourist visa and is now in detention."

Hi Blobbles it appears that the guys that stopped the sexual assault from getting worse then attacked (seriously enough for the police to take him to hospital later) the English guy didn't know him. In many countries the police would charged both the English guy for the sexual assault AND the people who later attacked him for some form of assault.

Its nice to remember that in China the police can put you in detention for basically as long as they want before they charge you.

3 dead four seriously injured

Kunming brought out new scooter laws this year making the majority of the scooters you see on the street now illegal to register. If you want a bigger scooter that can take you around town at speeds over 15km/h I would buy a second hand scooter.

Where you are staying is outside of the area that petrol Mbikes are banned, so you could buy a petrol Mbike.

If the procedure is a common one I would say a Chinese doctor would have done it many times more than a western doctor with the same work years. Hygiene and the absolute no responsibilty taken by the hospital are the main things to consider.
