I guess OP wanted something more along the line of what Casey Neistat cruises around in NYC, not segways or hover boards. In which case, Carrefour won't carry them.
@Wayne
Yep, a few Booster boards on Xianyu 2nd hand market for 3,000 rmb. Pricey, but according TheVerge, it's the top of the line e-skateboards.
@red
Not disagreeing with you at all. But some folks here wish to fulfill duties of Asian Representation for their peeps.
Props to Michelle Yeoh for staying classy as always. She's the epitome of 气质.
Awkwafina is adorable in her humble, comical ways. High hopes for her.
Another breakout comedian Jimmy O. Yang has much more depth than outrageously portrayed.
Some of us are more critical because we care.
Stay classy Kunming, no cutting corners!

Hover boards? Like the one in Back to the Future Marty McFly was being chased on?
I saw electric boards (ones that are grounded) at Carrefour near Nanping Pedestrian Street. They're on display by the smartphone section. Xiaomi electronics section is there as well.
For those who still haven't seen it, Crazy Rich Asians (摘金奇缘) is showing in Kunming theaters tomorrow.
No results found.
Ruili: Faint echoes of Yunnan's wild west
Posted byHigh speed rail from Dali to Ruili is in operation. A two-hour journey.
@Peter is right. Cross-border illicit drug smuggling by Chinese-speaking Burmese ladies from Myanmar may still needs to be addressed w/ more accountability by local border patrols on both sides. It's Yunnan's wild west.

NGO sues Yunnan dam developer over environmental degradation

NGO sues Yunnan dam developer over environmental degradation
Posted byLimited transmission capacity is another issue facing these hydro renewable power sources.
Local transmission companies would rather take on cheaper, coal-fired power providers in lieu. Leaving low grid connectivity for these hydropower resources. "Curtailment" is the industry jargon for their poor access to the power market. Clean hydropower wastage ensues.
—
Beijing announced today to setup renewable power quotas. Mandating local governments to give renewable electricity sources priority grid access. The goal is to reduce wastage rates by 12% in 2019. 5% in two years.

Would it be entirely far-fetched to assume this lawsuit was somehow funded by competing coal industries as a mean of regaining leverage in the regional power market? Using own EPA-kryptonite to fight against their nemesis? Not so much peafowl as foul play. When it comes to business, murky policies sometimes flow with the money stream.
