For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community. This website is maintained sporadically, people may still join and membership is still open, but if you are a spammer, stay away. The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date. There are plans to make it more useful for static information in the future. If anyone needs information about Changchun or China, you may post a message and it probably will get a response but not immediately.
I have heard on the grapevine that as from tomorrow (Wednesday), the buffet at the Jinan Hotel will offering South East Asian cuisine - Thai, Indonesian, Malaysian, Vitnamese etc. If anyone goes there then it would be greatto hear what it is like
I gather that there are discounts for group bookings

THIS MIGHT BE ONE OF MY MORE THAN MANY USELESS BLOGS - BUT.
WHO ARE YOUR HEROES AND WHY?
Mine are:
Socrates (Greece) - the father of reason
Shankara (India) - the man who welded spirituality and reason together
May (China) - because she keeps my feet on the ground
I have many others but this is a starting point!
