My wechat wallet had the same issue as above, but I noticed a few minutes later it was working again, guess it was some type of glitch in their system?

If you can (very difficult to get anything in writing from the PSB) it would be good for you to have a statement from the Yunnan Exit and Entry PSB saying that you had visited them to register the kids but your case could not be dealt with by them and they need to be registered in Qingdao. Anyway at least when you are in Qingdao you will know that if they suggest you register them in Kunming you will know that that is not an option.

I guess that the hot potato in this case is the police have not done their work and these three kids have not been registered and resident permits applied for. Of course it’s the parents who should have done this but it’s also the responsibility of the entry exit PSB and the local PSB where they were living to make sure the parents followed the law. I guess that the main problem now is which PSB office will being taking the responsibility for not doing their job properly.

But in the end it’s the exit entry PSB office that is the unit

to issue the resident permits to the 3 kids

to allow them to leave. So I would camp out there till they issue the permits.

@JanJal, yes a foreign couple I know did get married here, but that was around 2008 and it seems the rules changed since then

I was in Qingdao last week, its a popular tourist destination, with a very hilly layout in some ways similar to Kunming, but not only is Qingdao much easier than Kunming to get a taxi, with much better traffic speed, this northern "mountain city" is also building a subway system,,,but unlike Kunming the local government has requested that the construction does not effect traffic, so all construction is being done off to the side of roads.

According to one taxi driver the impact on the every day life of Qingdao citizens is so minimal that many locals dont even know a subway is being built!,,

It is really very interesting to see how different cities in China are managed.

But it was bloody freezing,,something Kunming has under control!

For Europe I would say it will most likely be Amsterdam over London or Paris as there are quite a lot of Dutch companies here,,Plus KLM already has the rights for passenger flights KM to Holland, currently KLM is already flying direct to Chengdu from Holland.

Its the norm in China when officials are being introduced or presented for a position that the media give all information, name, ethnic group, sex (especially if its a female), place of birth etc

when we renovated we took our workmen to B&Q to select materials from their excellent range if samples. Then with that list in hand we went to the construction market near Mingbo bridge and got the same materials at either half or one third of the B&Q price.

It's a good place for window shopping.
