This is just a small example of arsenic pollution in China...The problem could be greater than the milk issue.

It's the 3rd year in a row at least. I did the pub crawl 3 years ago but that time we started from Shi Da and not Yun Da :)

. . . and with a greater awareness of the polution in the lake, we ought to see more effort in the clean up.

I'm bound to ask what affect it will have on dog meat restaurants?

sounds great! what a nice ride it will be...

Yuquanzhai has been at its new location across the street next to Yuantong Temple for about a year now. here's a map of its current location: www.chinacitylistings.com/en/item/yuq_287/

Anyone have the list of banned dogs?

Having to Register dogs is good. Banning some dogs is very good. Car drivers next?

I can't seem to find spring roll rounds in the markets down here in Simao. Do you have a more specific recipe for spring roll pastry (Yunnan-style)? Most recipes I've seen for spring rolls stipulate filo pastry, but that sounds very hard work to produce...

wondering where is Wuhua Shan...

Hi Matt
I run a NGO in Ghana working with HIV/AIDS and I will be going to Kunming next week. I would like to get connected with Clare Ye Sheng; can you please pass my contact details over to her and give me her email?!

Thanks

It's great to see, after all these years of talk, that environmental policy might be starting to grow some teeth.
I've also read that a lot of Beijingers and city govt leaders are looking at how they can keep up the environmental improvements they made during the Olympics. Some good came out of those games after all.

Great coverage. There has been an increasing trend towards actual enforcement of environmental regs at the judicial level. Actually another local-level environmental court is being set up in Guiyang as well... I think Kunming's would only be the 2nd one in China, but I could be wrong.

On Guiyang's court, (Chinese)
