I think this was said above.
Because the buyer pays all taxes/fees. Expect to be asked to provide two sales invoices. One for a lesser amount to reduce the tax/fees payable.
Yes this is illegal, but in Kunming it is prevalent.
Certificate of no impediment, I am not sure about. But here is what I had to do for my UK marriage certificate, using an agent.
The certificate was sent to the agent in the UK.
Agent then sent the certificate to the UK Chinese consulate in London.
The Chinese consulate then sent it, through consular channels, to the British Embassy in London.
The BE then had it officially verified and returned to the Chinese consulate, via consular channels.
The Chinese consulate then provided certification (green official certificate with holographic seal and red stamp).
Certified document sent to agent
Returned to me.
NB Certification in this case was only valid for 6 months.
Documents can be difficult and the rules seem to change from country to country. The rules can also change between countries, i.e. a Country A document in Country X can be treated differently to a Country B document in Country X.
I know this isn't helpful, but be prepared to give them what they ask for. And expect what they ask for to change.
The law will be ignored until they decide to have a crack down. These crackdowns only last a few weeks.
Ravi is perhaps a classic example of why non-native speakers with a dictionary are a liability.
My understanding.
As a non Chinese citizen you need to be part of a group to get the permit.
For a definitive answer, go to a travel agency and get them to get the travel permit for you.
I also believe that the answer can change depending on political sensitivity at the time. Travel permits have been known to be unavailable in the past.

Swedish design ideas, kunming build quality. i have bought lots of ikea stuff in the past, the furniture at #11 are poor facsimiles of genuine item. Yes stuff is affordable, but poorly made and overpriced in my opinion. we took a good look around and looked closely at build quality and walked away.
The Irish are not known for French anything, to be fair.
Let us know how you get on a give your new rating.
It might be worth identifying which Prague venue you are reviewing.
When I first arrived in Kunming I did a tour of Wenlin Jie. I did't like the look of Prague.
More recently I have used Prague in Beichen a lot and I like it.
Ref the comment @nonsecond about being made sick from raw apple, WTF?

Sounds like someone else is rewriting the past.
Chinese college freshmen increasingly unfit
Posted byI agree that it is not the fault of the university. The university is just where these out of shape kids end up.
There is a cultural issue and the parents are part of the problem. Most parents would let their kids study longer and sleep less, which is why laws were introduced to limit school hours.
The only way to effect uniform change is for sport to be mandatory in schools. If all kids spend a few hours less in the classroom there is still equity of learning hours in all schools. Some of the heat of GaoKao will be off, not increased.
The levels of fitness will vary, as kids from the countryside often do help on the farm, especially at harvest. Harvest is just before kids go off to university. However, the kids from the countryside are less likely to have had access to an education that will set them up for entry to China's elite universities in Beijing or Shanghai.
The study harder, get better grades, get to a better school, get better grades IS a virtuous circle. But only if you look at grades and forget the whole person. These kids may be top academically but may be physically, and emotionally damaged. This also impacts in their future families and this will affect society.
Yunnan Shanquan to raise prices 50 percent
Posted by50% margin sounds like a lot, but actually it isn't for this type of industry. The margins on some of things you buy can be as high as 300%.
We think of low margins when we look at mass selling, dry grocery in the supermarkets for example. Unless a product is ONLY available in the supermarket, and supermarkets only compete with each other, we don't see low margins. A lot of products in the supermarkets (e.g. chips and soda) have margins of 30% plus).

To be honest, I was amazed that they could do it for 10rmb.
Green Lake to get wetter, brighter, noisier
Posted byIf the picture in the article is recent, it also shows another design problem with Chinese fountains.
All the pipework and lights are usually above the water. This is easier for maintenance, but in the 99% of the time when the fountain is not operating, it is an eyesore. Putting the pipes, etc. below the water is done in most other countries, that way people can enjoy the ambience of the lakes waters most of the time.
