[quote=GUEST11921,250487]HELLO;

I LIVE IN KUNMING.  I WOULD NOT LIVE ANYWHERE ELSE ON THIS PLANET.

I MOVED TO KUNMING (AFTER YEARS OF TRAVEL IN CHINA) IN JULY 2006.

I WRITE TO YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE NEW ZEALANDERS.  I WOULD NOT RESPOND IF YOU WERE FROM EUROPE OR NORTH AMERICA.

YOU WILL FIND THE LOCAL PEOPLE GENUINE IN THEIR LIKES AND DISLIKES.

TEACHING JOBS ARE ABUNDANT.   THE CHINESE WILL WATCH AFTER YOUR CHILDREN BETTER THAN YOU DO!

HOUSING COSTS ARE NOT HIGH.  NEAR THE UNIVERSITY (GREEN LAKE PARK) YOU CAN FIND APARTMENTS FOR LESS THAN $200 U.S.  FOR A FAMILY OF FOUR. THERE ARE RENTAL AGENCIES ON EVERY CORNER.   GOING TO LOCAL MARKET IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE ACTIVITIES.

CARRE FOUR HAS A LARGE STORE FOR FOREIGN PRODUCTS.  THE PRICES ARE REASONABLE.

I ENCOURAGE YOU (BECAUSE AS KIWI'S) YOU WOULD BE A POSITIVE INFLUENCE AND REPRESENT THE TYPE OF FOREIGNERS WHICH PROMOTE GOOD WILL.

YOUR CHILDREN WILL HAVE PLENTY TO DO AND BE ACCEPTED BECAUSE THE CHINESE ARE CURIOUS AND THEY DO NOT LET RACIAL PRFERENCES INTERFERE WITH THE PROSPECT OF LEARNING FROM FOREIGNERS.

THE CITY IS SAFE.  THERE ARE LOCAL GANGS BUT THEY DO NOT BOTHER FOREIGNERS.  SINCE WE ARE NOT PART OF THE LOCAL INTRIGUE OR ILLEGAL ACTIVITY.    AS MY FRIEND WEI SAYS: "FOREIGNERS ARE SAFER HERE THAN LOCALS."

THAT IS IT IN A NUTSHELL

FROM HERE YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN.

GOOD LUCK

REM
