Beijing and Xinning in 2003, loads of bicycles, pig carcasses carted around in 3 wheeled bicycles.
Beijing airport was a scammers paradise...my friend paid 2000rmb to collect his luggage.
I paid 200 rmb for a taxi ride..

Kunming 2006.

Hanging onto cars and taxis while on bicycle(courier style) i could travel most of Renmin Lu faster than traffic..

Few Cars but gridlock would ensue with a minor fender bender.
Parking everywhere.

Santana was a luxury car.

Performance bicycles were rare imports...most bicycle were single speed with squeaky hub brakes.

Dali old town.2007.

Few vehicles....
I could land my paraglider, tandem, on the main road in front of 3 pagodas..

Good move on the decision but too late. It will take decades to bring back the reputation unless the locals are truly innovative. Some of these rules are quite vague which encourages the usual officials to sell permits for favors Too late....

I'd like to single out the 7 or so families which control the tour boats in Dali's Er Hai lake.

They use an environmental protection law to erase all competition on the lake while they own large diesel powered tour boats on the same lake.

The same situation in Fu Xian lake.

Corruption breeds incompetence. Content with status quo, without competition and diversity any industry falls behind. Meanwhile, inside the corrupt bubble all is fine....

Quote.. Secondly, the tourism industry is backwards, relying too much on ticket sales and unable to effectively meet diversified high-end tourism needs. Thirdly, management lags [behind national standards...] and is not standardized or properly organized. The ability to deal with emergencies is also weak.
