Forums > Living in Kunming > VPN:s still working?
Breaking news. Apple removes VPN Apps from China App Store.
Apple is siding with profits over ______. China is one of their biggest markets after all. AAPL stocks would tank if they disobeyed calls to censorship.
Looks like the Great Firewall is being refortified. The war on VPNs has begun.
Forums > Living in Kunming > Civilized Kunming
Right now trending on Chinese social media in Kunming circles, locals are angry with the drowning of mother and child. They are angry that the civilized project has cost tax payers RMB 30 Billion yet their government can't even prevent streets from flooding because of subpar infrastructure.

If we want to be honest with each other. The "civilized" money could be better spent on drainage/sewage revamp. Kunming has been flooding for decades... and certainly susceptible to more flooding in the future.

Supposedly 北区 Northern Kunming has been flooded to the windshields of cars, as well as many parking basements in the city... today or tomorrow would be a disaster for the anticipated Beijing inspections.

Committee proposes renaming Kunming's Dongfeng Square
发布者Beg to differ. In a world of over-populated cities, eco-scraper (or green skyscrapers) are needed more than ever via sustainable development to curb carbon footprints. China is leading the way with the vision of environmentally-mindful architects from around the world. Societies need to build up in lieu of compromising nature via flat.
Committee proposes renaming Kunming's Dongfeng Square
发布者The 407-meter Eye of Spring (aka "Dongfeng Square") skyscraper will reign supreme momentarily before being quickly dethroned by a even taller 458-meter skyscraper by developer Greenland (绿地东南亚区域总部中心) in Wujiaba (old airport):

Iconic Kunming landmark getting subterranean facelift
发布者My bad, after careful reading, the "red" line isn't the actual Red KRT Line 1 that goes North to South. It may help to zoom out the map with actual KRT Lines we are accustomed to seeing as reference.
Iconic Kunming landmark getting subterranean facelift
发布者For the life of me I'm having trouble reading the above map.
I thought Line 3 & Line 1 are perpendicular from one another, not parallel.
Chinese maps often get the English compass rose cardinal directions (N, S, E, W) mixed up, confusing the hell out of navigators.
