China Travel Guide II

[kurengkeng]

hehe. go go go!

[ChefKrissie]

tama si kurengkeng super mura talga sa outlet store in shanghai, puro lacoste bags ang binili ko, imagine nakabilli ako doon ng orig na handbag na worth 1200 pesos lang.

dami din okey na puntahan doon, syempre di mawawala yung pearl TV tower people square, the bund, and [textspeak!] mga parks nila ( pero mas masarap mamasyal sa park nila pag spring kasi madami talagang mga flowers, malalake and magaganda) actually depende kung ano [textspeak!] hilig niyo. bars, shopping lahat okey sa shanghai.

natry ko magtrain sa china. yun going to beijing, i tried the shanghai to beijing train. I forgot yun code ng train ko, pero walang stopover yun, so masmahal and I took the lower bunk. 4 bunks in an compartment. mga almost Y400 yun, so multiply by 6.5 ata that time, so... mga P2600. bakit 4200 sayo? saan ka nagtanong? baka sa net masmahal. ako sa train station kasi mismo bumili

yes sis sa net ako nag inquire. I will purchase it online then they will deliver it daw sa hotel that i will be staying.  baka kasi pag dun ako bumili is mahirapan pa ko.  di ba mahirap bumili ng train ticket dun? and lagi bang may available sit. and also 4 bunks un di ba, so meaning pag dalawa kami, we will be sharing it to somebody, di ba nakakatakot? 

[iluvescadasport]

that time kasi no choice ako but to buy on the train station. wala kasi akong credit card that time so I can't purchase anything online. laging may space naman. usually pag naubusan ng bunk, either sit or hanap ka ibang time na may available bunk. kakatakot din. at least 2 kayo, so just sleep with your bag(containing all ur impt stuff) beside you and out of reach from other people. ako that time, mag-isa ako tapos kasama ko pa sa compartment all guys. tapos close door pa yun. medyo sanay na rin ako that time so medyo hindi ako takot, pero kinda takot parin. pag first time talaga, kakatakot, soft sleeper tawag diyan. you can request hard sleeper, 6 bunk bed, below middle and top bunk. walang door, open space talaga, pero mas safe kasi open to all.

we'll be in HK on oct 15-22 and one of those days we're going to visit shenzhen, day trip lang.

would you advise to apply here instead or wait for october? i heard mahigpit sila sa mga first timers ngayon pag dito mag-apply. ang dami pang hinihingi na forms, reqts.

please help

according to china travel services, the policy for first time applicants will remain the same. and sad to say, by october di pa sila mag-iissue ng shenzhen visa at lowu border, unless hkid holder ka.

may i ask? i read from back reading na requirements for chinese visa are:
passport, app form with pic, round trip tickets, hotel voucher, SSS, SSS contribution, certificate of employment, and bank certificates.

what if wala akong makukuhang SSS contribution, COE (even if i am employed cause our HR will process COE daw for 3 working days!) and bank certificates? meaning wala na talagang pag-asa for visa?

i have traveled outside the country before but this is my first time to go to China.

Thanks for assistance

you don't need to pass a copy of your SSS contribution. you will pass a copy or your SSS ID or ANY OTHER GOVERNMENT ISSUED ID (like driver's license).

you can avail of the services of an agency for visa application.

u can view and print your sss contribution online.. better process your coe now. atleast bank cert and coe or payslip will do. mahigpit pa talaga sila. but you may want to wait na magluwag sila. around last week ng oct siguro.
