It's irrelevant what the school says, they are not the authority on whether you can work or not, whether it is on holiday or in school time.

You didn't have a work visa, so from official point of view you were never employed and the agency owes you nothing, no matter what work you do or don't do for them.

In such "wipe clean and start over" scenario, it usually happens so that after it is wiped and started over, there are questions about where my files are and why I cannot login to FB or access my email anymore.

So whatever you do, first make sure that all your personal/work files and passwords possibly stored in browser are copied or otherwise moved to some other place than the computer.

This would of course be smart thing to do periodically anyway, but especially in such case as yours.

If you can provide some more information about your PC (like what operating system and version) and the problems you are observing, someone here could have more motivation to have a look at it.

In Finland (pretty sure Sweden too), kebab is almost exclusively doner kebab, and associated with small restaurants run by migrants of Middle-Eastern and Russian origin.

99% time these establishments also serve pizza and falafel (vegetarian dish).

Besides feeding late night party-goers, they are also popular lunch destinations because they often have lunch offers starting at 5 EUR per meal.

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.

"Survey of Economic Life in China"

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?

"Dogs raised outside the key management areas may not be brought in."

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

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?
