I think all Chinese students, most of whom speak some form of Chinese as their native language, take classes and study Chinese language in school, should be easy to find one.

Somebody explain to me about tonight's Wine & Pizza special beginning at midnight (see events calendar).
"MOST people in Africa" deal with Chinese? I rather doubt it, despite recent increase of the presence of Chinese in quite a few African countries..
I remember the smell of a large industrial plant of some sort. However, the place had importance as a major stop on the French RR completed in 1910. I looked around RR yards and housing near the RR for something of interest but didn't really find it. This was about 2005 or 6.
I understand the google wars, but it strikes me as ridiculous that no English-language Kunming map can be provided for an English-language website in Kunming. They want tourists or don't they? Would be nice if gokunming could find such. Or do the Chinese authorities WANT English-speaking foreigners in China to jump their censorship and use vpns?
No results found.
Not quite what you'd call a jumping place, but not bad at all for rather standard US-type meals, not overly expensive, and with a really good salad bar that's cheap, or free with most dinner dishes after 5:30PM. You can get a bottle of beer or even wine if you really want to, but I've never seen anybody do it - maybe that's just to take out. Chinese Christian run, and they hire people with physical disadvantages, who are pleasant and helpful. Frequented by foreign (mostly North American) Christians and Chinese Christians - was started by a Canadian couple associated with Bless China (previously, Project Grace), who are no longer here, but no religious pressure or any of that. Steaks are nothing special, and I avoid the Korean dishes, which I've had a few times but which did not impress me.
As a shop and bakery, it's very good bread at reasonable prices, of various kinds (Y18 for a good multigrain loaf that certainly weighs well over a pound. Other stuff too, like granola and oatmeal that is local, as well as imported things, including American cornflakes and so forth, which some people seem to require.
Large portions, seriously so with the pizza, which is Brooklyn/American style, I guess. Convivial, conversational, good place to drink with good folks on both sides of the bar, especially after about 9PM.
Too bourgeois.
Really good pizza and steaks. The wine machine fuddles me when I'm a bit fuddled, & seems unnecessary. Good folks on both sides of the bar.
Ain't no flies on Salvador's.
Around Town: Yunnan University Museum of Anthropology
发布者Looks like there are indeed some interesting exhibits. However, I get the impression that the focus of the museum is primarily on non-Han peoples and/or on somewhat 'exotic' practices, whereas anthropology in fact can and does include the study of any and all human cultural practices. It is often the typical behaviour and culture of 'ordinary' people, whenever and whatever that might involve, that is the least understood, perhaps because all too many of us assume that we already understand it.
Burmese hardwoods logged to brink of extinction
发布者But of course the Chinese state has been extremely responsible, environmentally, for banning logging in China in 1998 - since when Chinese loggers have been raping northern Myanmar.

发布者Isn't profit-driven development wonderful?
Kunming neighborhoods face water rationing
发布者@Kate, your question: I think anyone can do this.
Scores of Kunming officials investigated for corruption
发布者Crackdown on corruption, ok - but then there has been an unleashing of mindcops.
