  Looks good. I know when I go to Asia I will have to go to HK and meet a 1,000 family members that I have never seen.
  4f: hahaha… i am sure you kids will love it during chinese new year. with 1000 family members there is a lot of red packet to be collected. cant say the same for you & your wife though, my fren!!
  And then it will be off to China and suspect this place will be part of the iteniary. Looks really clean.
  4f: it is about one hour from the border at shenzhen. you will pass by it going to guangzhou!!
  CHUP… coca cola…. actually hor.. all the flats look the same everywhere. I think I got lost a few time when in spore
  4f: you must get burung pipit as your guide next time when in lil dot so you wont feel lost again!!

  It's a bit of an irony right? Chang Ping has excellent customer service and yet does not have many tourists. Your experience has proven wrong the stereotype that mainland Chinese offers poor customer service.
  4f: the level of service here is even better than big city like shanghai which i had tried before. maybe it is a small county and the people are more friendly.

  wow.. so modern oledi! is your ancestry village there? Mine is somewhere in Guangdong province too… went there in 2001
  4f: it is actually near my mum kampung in sekloong. was visiting my cousin and brother when we were there
  There is a certain modernistic rustic charm about china eh?
  4f: yup! only if we can get off the touristy belt sometime

  Your relative must be a somebody in Chang Ping to be known by all the waiters and waitresses in the restaurant (or he's a big tipper) 😛
  4f: sharp observation mama! i guess the value in the ang pau he handed out that nite was equivalent to the cost of our meal!

  i've began to change my opionion on china…they provide good customer service…cheap and yummy food (less the surrounding), great massage too… i hope i was still there!
  4f: china is definitely a good place to unwind if you can ignore some of the unpleasantries of the surrounding where you find these gems of makan and urut places 🙂

  I like the last pic. Very tastefully done. Very artistic..
  I was just in Changping. It is a great little city, with gorgeous girls, great food.
  Did you check out the many karaoke/night clubs? Pretty crazy, hundreds of young women walking around…
  4f: usually with relative. no opportunity to see the more exciting side of CP
  Forgot to mention, I stayed at the Hua Mei, nice hotel, good price. Will be headed back to Changping in July…
  4f: u there on biz? can go together. i usually stay with my relative

  Hi. I was there just for fun, my father lives in Taiwan so I visited him, and with a few friends of his we went to Changping.
  You will be there in July? It would be fun to meet or something. Email me at jdhujdhu@gmail.com, my name is Jimmy.
  And yes, you need to come check out the exciting aspects of CP. Really quite amazing, and I have to admit that a beautiful girl there has stolen my heart.
  Again forgot something, I also took some pictures of CP and can email them to you if you are interested. Yours are very good, by the way…
  4f: got your pic… awesome especially the one with the bath tub!! heheheh 🙂
  The Penninsula Hotel is a nice 4 star hotel with good rates as well.
  4f: never stay in hotel, only with relative. hope it has a nice restaurant that i can try 🙂

  Just returned from SZ and made a stop to CP (for DVD buying – not US movies, but Chinese history DVDs). The stories about terrible service in China are outdated when referring to the big cities, esp. the SZ/DG area. You might find an occasional person with an attitude, but it's pretty rare. For the most part we enjoyed fantastic, attentive service from well-trained employees. I didn't try the stone-cooked steak (dammit!) but did have some excellent spicy fish head hotpot. Yum!
  4f: soij-another fan of chinese service and CP! Chinese trips can be eyes opening for all the right reason… welcome to pipit blog!
