Every long distance mover we have ever looked at merely ship, and trans-ship. You need to arrange men at either end for the humping and dumping, which you pay separately.. And none of them gave us any confidence. We have also lost stuff when we used one, and they didn't really care, like they expected and accepted it.
We have used Asia Express twice. For inter province moves in China. They cost about double but I can highly recommend them. Very professional. They once lost a piece of a desk, and traced the item two days later, and then returned it a distance of 1000km.
They send a couple of guys down from the nearest depot to supervise the loading and also ensure that items are properly wrapped/packed and secure. For example they disassembled and bubble wrapped my ancient bike. This was final pack to make sure things are secure. They will do packing, but there is a charge for this.
They also send a guy from the nearest depot to the destination to supervise the unloading and organise a local gang to unload.
China hands out happy city awards, Kunming sad
发布者I tend to agree with JanJal on this one. Financial security and the peace of mind that comes with it, may be a more important factor in some cultures than it is in others.
Kunming's bike share options: A user guide
发布者The figures quoted from Bloomberg above are incorrect. Whichever source Bloomberg used, did obviously not sanity check. I watched an interview with the CEO of Mobike a while back, and I am pretty sure he said the cost of the bikes was CNY 1000, not USD 1000.
If you apply the same correction to the other figures, then Bluegogo would be CNY400 CNY, which seems about right; as three years ago I bought my daughter a cheap bike for CNY400 retail. Consider direct from manufacturer prices. As Ofo seem to be even lower quality, then CNY 300 would not surprise me.
Factor in these adjusted prices to business case calculations, and it all makes more sense.

发布者Bluegogo has gonegone.. It looks like ofo are flooding the streets with the cheapest of bikes, and Mobike looks like it has been forced to invest in cheaper machines. Now the questions are, can Mobike survive the swamping of the market by ofo? And can ofo's disposable bike policy be sustained?
Belt and Road pushing Yunnan companies international
发布者Seeing as said foreign country's company will probably pay for most of it, 55 years may not be so long, when you leverage risk factors. However, seeing as most tourism will be inbound from said country they should get a return.
The alternative is probably no airports, and no big (probably massive) increase in tourism revenues.
It would probably be a good idea to visit these places before they are consumed by the tourist industry.
