Forums > Living in Kunming > Subway card Today I went to Xiao Xi Men (Xi An Ma Road - Walmart) to exchange my old bus card for the new Subway/Bus Card.
I was refunded the money in my old card but I was not refunded the 20 Yuan deposit. We asked why and we were told that 1 Yuan is deducted from the card every month. After the 20 Yuan has been used up the 1 Yuan fee is automatically stopped.
So for all of us who believed this was a deposit, we now know this is really a hidden fee.
The new subway card also has this 20 Yuan hidden fee (Deposit).

Kunming's metro could cost 300 billion yuan
发布者They would never have begun building the metro unless they knew that they will be making a profit. They do make a profit and the profit will only grow more with time.

Chinese climbers among those murdered in Pakistan
发布者Drones? How about the last 60+ plus years of murder and mayhem. Take your pick - Iran in 1950s, Nicaragua, Chile, Iraq 1990s, again in 2002, Afghanistan, Lybia, now Syria. The list is endless. All provoked by the USA and western allies, not in defense of anything - plain and simple - the aggressor.
Chinese climbers among those murdered in Pakistan
发布者All of this and more to come is a direct result of the chaos the USA is creating all over the world. The world can never have peace as long as the west continues to murder in the name of democracy. Look at how good life is here in China, a communist country.
