For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community.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 The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date.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.

There has been a lot of interest in this event, with about 25 tickets sold so far and a lot of people saying maybe, so if you would like to go to this wonderful Thanksgiving event, Im advising people to go down to Grandpa's or Grandma's and buy your tickets as soon as you can.

Will buy my ticket tomorrow!

I can remember days gone by when we had nothing!

So the Chun is modernising and Brook and Derek's new shop will be a real winner as they build up stocks!
