I went to a vegetarian sichuan style restaurant the other night that I was surprised to find was non-smoking. Can't remember the location, but it might be common around vegetarian restaurants.

I couldn't figure it for NZ and ended up flying back to hand things in at the embassy myself. For my Australian documents I managed to find a lawyer who offered legalisation as a service. Both options were expensive, slow and problematic, but I think sending things down to a local lawyer will be my choice in the future if I don't have a friend to do it for me.
I just did a Z visa run to HK and had no problems. Australian passport which cost HKD 1520 for next day service.
Just make sure you have all the photocopies you need before you go, or take a working Octopus card to pay for the copy machine. It was a little embarrassing and frustrating standing in line watching foreigner after foreigner get to the front and then delay the process trying to beg an Octopus card off the people around them.
As mentioned in other posts, make sure you have HK registered as your consulate of choice on the paperwork or you won't be accepted. They guys at the foreign experts office here were nervous about rejections and didn't really know the consulate's policies, but listed HK "at my own risk" and it worked out fine.

Address was 20/F Capital Centre, 151 Gloucester Road, Wan Chai, HK. Don't bother going to the address listed on the consulate's website.
That is what I have been told.. I was hoping to find a way to do this without having to fly to New Zealand to have the Chinese embassy there stamp the document.
For clarity, i already have the police clearance.. Just trying to get the Chinese authorities to accept it.
No results found.
Awesome little bakery. Lots of interesting food. For every Australian out there, the meat pies smelled great, though they weren't ready for eating when I went in. Will definitely be back for those soon.

Welcome to the new GoKunming!
Posted byWhile I am on the topic of calendars, a schedule of minority festivals around the province would be awesome too.
Welcome to the new GoKunming!
Posted byAll looks good.. Have always thought that the calendar would be well served by an "add this event" or "subscribe" button that would allow users to add events to their personal calendars with a click or subscribe to events at their favourite venues.
Getting Away: Ximeng's Wooden Drum Festival
Posted byAwesome article. Thanks Matthew and GoKunming for getting this out early so that people can plan to get down to experience this.
Has GoKunming ever looked at creating a festivals Wiki page or something with a list of all these random things that happen around the province. It seems impossible to stay informed of these until it is too late. Might be easier to accomplish it it was community driven.
Also, those maps are fantastic. What program was used to make them??
