I am still convinced that there is no real law that forbids women from inheriting property (in rural area or cities) - only decades of negligence and self interest from local authorities.
I am quite sure, that the biggest obstacle legally are family members not giving their daughters the right which they are by law granted.
Law of the People's Republic of China on Land Contract in Rural Areas (2002):
Article 6 In undertaking land contracts in rural areas, women shall enjoy equal rights with men. The legitimate rights and interests of women shall be protected in contract. No organizations or individuals may deprive their rights to land contractual management, which they are entitled to, or infringe upon such right.
I'm quite convinced, that this "law" would cause quite a stir if it reached enough ears among the city-dwelling social media users and eventually law-makers in Beijing.
China takes quite some pride over it's development of women's rights (compared to India for example), and this is quite something else.
hanshan: We renewed my residence permit earlier in 2016, and I believe my wife applied for (and received) new temporary Kunming ID just few weeks before that.
If you include JS from random website, you have absolutely no guarantee over its content. One day it will just start redirecting users to some porn site.
"Tourist visa applicants within the United States will no longer be required to submit round-trip air ticket booking record, proof of hotel reservation, itinerary or invitation letter."
CoVid experiences possibly affecting this could could of course come from many perspectives.
For example, those who are or have been in urban lock-down, may appreciate the prospect of going out once it is over - opportunities which are perhaps different in Kunming/Yunnan, than somewhere else.
If the survey took place during or after lock-downs in China, people will acknowledge this and it would show in results more strongly than perhaps otherwise. Appreciating what the city or region can offer beside 12h work days and big bucks.
If this "economic" is to be taken as in affordability, then at least for me it is a major point.
If I speculate this from local perspective, last I checked the local average salary was below the monthly automatic 5000 RMB tax deduction, so average Kunming resident gets by without paying any income tax - in many other country I would probably feel satisfied if I see the city and society develop even without having to contribute to it myself by other means than my own consumption.
There isn't that much industry here, but the benefits of developing society keep trickling in anyway, and this curve (or imbalance or whatever you'd call it) will ultimately show in this kind of surveys, positively.
It is perhaps same in some more remote places, where some farmers can make a small fortune with modern technology to help them.
Also curious about when this survey was conducted - would CoVid experiences weigh in it, and how?
I'm curious whether the separate website for Lijiang means less Lijiang-specific content appearing on GoKunming. For me personally it would be double to effort to navigate two websites, which may be why I will not frequent on the Lijiang site.
So basically will the information on the two sites be mirrored so that those who only read GoKunming, may catch all/most of the content about Lijiang as well?

New strict dog regulations in 36 Kunming areas

Curious how this regulation deals with people (foreigners or Chinese) who may want to move in Kunming and bring their pet dogs with...?
