Does anyone know if the park today operates at same level of quality as witnessed in the article, or has it been improved or fallen from that?
To get there, the article recommends taking bus from Kunming West bus station to Lufeng (1h30min) and then small bus to the park (40min), and leave the park before 16:30 to catch last bus to Kunming.
To connect back to the more recent posts, does the high speed train to Dali stop at Lufeng? That would allow for better options to get there from Kunming - maybe even day visit there and get to Dali by evening.
I recall by-appointment was mentioned in the first doses too, but neverthless you could just walk in without.
Probably appointment was originally needed for schools or others potentially large groups, and extended to everyone in way that is common bureacracy here - only to be ignored in the end.
I'm not sure what qualifies as "proper VIP" for you, but I would suggest to settle to any medically qualified maternity hospital that can arrange private room where not only your wife, but also you can sleep the couple of nights prior to delivery if needed - if that's what you want of course.
Usually the requirement for medical professional to take, seal, and sign the sample arises from said sample being needed for some legal purposes, necessitating an added layer of trust. In such case there may be extra paperwork worth more trouble than taking the sample itself.
Reading between the lines, this doesn't sound like such case. But in a remote chance it is, the legal context may create an obstacle for any doctor legally employed in China - foreign or not.
The staff of the school, from the top to the janitor, was trying to increase their profits by not implementing proper storage for the sleeping mattresses.
If I interpret Mike correctly, he is referring to general attitude of average Chinese person toward other human beings, nature, and generally everything other than himself and his immediate family.
For long time China was poor country, and it still reflects in many parts of the society. One is, that average Chinese will always put his own survival and benefit first.

Update: Officials fired after school stampede kills six
Posted byIn extreme poverty, people will even limit survival to that of their own person.
This has been reported, for example, from DPRK prison camps with family members turning on each other to survive.
In today's China you cannot make this comparison to DPRK, but China's history has left its marks in people's behavior today.
