China Budget Hotel

Staying in Chinese unfamiliar budget hotel can have some surprise. For example you wouldn't expect to get a midnight call offering massage service by the Chinese girls. The location is bad plus the facilities is usually below par.


But nowadays with the rise of new and modern Chinese budget chain hotel namely Home Inns, HanTing Inn, Jinjiang Inn, 7 Days Inn and lots more, the difference between the five star hotel and with this kind of hotel is not really big at all.


I visited Guangzhou 3 times last year for business. Normally I stay either at Jinjiang Inn near Sun Yat Sen Memorial Hall or HanTing just beside it. Both hotel have meet my expectation. Quite surrounding, daily room service, Internet access and clean interior. The aircond and hot tap worked and the workers change the basic toiletries everyday. For a five day stay I will get 5 toothbrushes, 5 shower cap and 5 soaps.

Guangzhou Metro Line 3 : Airport Baiyun - Panyu Square

This the news that I have been waiting for. Now passenger who landed in Baiyun International Airport Guangzhou can choose to ride with the Guangzhou Metro/Subway direct to the Guangzhou City Centre.

There are 5 interchange in between the route

1. Line 3 - Line 2 at Jiahewanggang
2. Line 3 - Line 1 at Guangzhou East Railway Station
3. Line 3 - Line 1  at Tiyu Xi Lu
4. Line 3 - Line 5 at Zhujiang New Town
5. Line 3 - Line 8 at Kecun

 I like to stay in Jinjiang Inn or Hanting Inn near the Sun Yat Sen Memorial Hall. Using the fare calculator here, the ticket from the Airport South Metro Station to Sun Yat Sen Memorial Hall costs me only RMB 12. And the time taken is only 37 minutes (I calculate it here )


Short comparison

Taxi Baiyun Airport - GZ City Centre = RMB 100 / taxi ; 45 minutes
Bus Baiyun Airport - GZ City Centre = from RMB 18 / person, 50 - 65 minutes

Where is the Metro Station in the Airport 

First you need to locate in which area you are. For international flight you will be most probably in the area A

How to find metro station in A area

If you are from international flight, you will either exit from E1 or E2. From this exit, proceed to elevator near Gate A4 (near the 7-11 convenient shop), walk 10 minute through underground channel, arrive at the metro station at floor -1. Metro line 3 starts from here.

Alibaba Tips : Buying from Alibaba.com

Nowadays many trader small or big buy directly from China's supplier via B2B website like Alibaba and Made-In-China. The process is not that hard but sometimes little bit tricky.


Many times happen that some of us just fall into prey into scammer and cheater that sell nothing except advertising things that does not exist at all. 


Let me share my experience dealing with supplier in Alibaba.


The main question asked by many:

1. How could we trust a supplier in Alibaba
2. How to transfer money to the supplier in China. What measurement should I take?

Question # 1
How could we trust a supplier in Alibaba.

• Deal only with Gold Supplier.
• Cross check their profile with other B2B website
• Get in touch with the supplier first via Trade Manager (A firefox extension that enable chatting between you and supplier in Alibaba). Have some sort of ice breaking chat with them
• Before you place your order, ask for quotation. If you dont have shipping agent/warehouse in China, ask them to quote the shipping cost separately
• Upon agreeing with the quotation, ask for the invoice

Question # 2

How to transfer money to supplier in China.  The best and safest way is to use telegraphic transfer (TT) via local major bank. What measurement should I take?

•  Ask the supplier to give the final price in both RMB and USD
• Ask the supplier to give their personal details (Full name and ID #)
• Ask the supplier their bank details (Bank Address, SWIFT Code are compulsory)
• Fill in the TT form. Ask the bank officer to help you
• You will need to pay processing charge. So prepare extra money.
• Wait 15 minutes. And done
• Within 24 hours, check with the supplier if they have receive the money. Always keep your TT form copy with you for future reference.

So how about you? I believe many of us have used the B2B service for a long time. Share your tips and tricks. As the wiseman always said Guide others and you will be guided..Amen

Usahawan Islam Guangzhou

Pada hari kelima trip yang lalu, saya membawa kreatan akhbar Harian Metro ke Masjid Maqam Saad Abi Waqas. Saya menunjukkan kepada jemaah tempatan gambar Issa Ma dan isterinya. Selepas asar seorang pakcik bernama Yaakub membawa saya bertemu Issa di Nanfang Taxa. Mereka cukup gembira melihat saya membawa keratan akhbar tersebut dan meminta utk menyimpannya. Saudara Issa juga kenal dengan beberapa rakan saya di Masjid Sri Petaling.


Artikel berkenaan Issa Ma dalam H Metro 27 September 2010.

Berniaga ikut lunas Islam
Oleh Kusyi Hirdan
kusyihirdan@gmail.com
2010/09/27

ADA 10 juta penduduk di Guangzhou, China dan 100,000 daripadanya beragama Islam. Guangzhou, kota ketiga terbesar di China selepas Beijing dan Shanghai, pesat membangun padat dengan manusia yang sibuk mengejar masa dan wang.

DEMI REZEKI…pasangan Issa dan Salima tekad berniaga sendiri di tengah kepesatan Guangzhou.
Kita tidak boleh lambat atau jalan berlenggang di Guangzhou kerana selain ketinggalan kita mungkin juga akan kelaparan.
Dalam 10 juta manusia itu, penulis terserempak Salima Ma, 29, ketika meminta pertolongan menunjukkan jalan ke masjid. Senang mengenali Salima adalah Muslim kerana pakaiannya menutup aurat. Dia yang baru berbuka puasa waktu itu bersungguh-sungguh menunjuk jalan ke masjid kepada penulis.
Dengan bahasa Inggeris yang agak baik, agak mudah kami menjalin hubungan dengannya. Sebelum berpisah, ibu beranak satu itu sempat memberitahu mempunyai kedai menjual peralatan telefon dan memberi kad perniagaannya di Central Communication, Jalan Xi Ti Er berhadapan bangunan Plaza Namfang, berdekatan Sungai Pearl.
Tiga hari selepas itu baru berkesempatan bertemu Salima semula kerana hujan sangat lebat melanda Guangzhou sekali gus mengehadkan perjalanan.


Salima menyambut kami dengan penuh ramah dan kami diperkenalkan kepada suaminya, Issa.
Ma Sheng Xing atau Issa Ma, 29, berkelulusan komputer daripada Universiti North National aktif dalam bidang dakwah di kawasan tempat tinggal dan pekerjaannya.
Salima Ma mempunyai nama cina Ma Yu Lain, berkelulusan alam sekitar, sentiasa menjadi penyokong kuat suaminya.

Day 5 : Melawat Gudang dan acara bebas

Saya suka membuat trip selama 6 hari 5 malam atau 5 hari 4 malam bergantung kepada perbincangan awal para peserta. Banyak faktor mempengaruhi pemilihan tarikh dan masa yang sesuai. Antara faktor yang saya sering titik beratkan ialah harga tiket, suasana di Guangzhou / Yiwu, cuaca dan sebagainya. Trip kali ini mengambil masa 6 hari 5 malam. Kebiasaannya pada hari terakhir trip saya akan membawa peserta ke gudang untuk menghantar barang2 yang dibeli secara kecil2an dan runcit2an. Disamping itu peserta sendiri akan melihat proses penerimaan barangan dan pemprosesan dokumen.

Kebiasaannya pada hari keempat trip, saya akan membiarkan sendiri para peserta trip utk membuat ulang lawat ke plaza2 yang mereka telah pergi pada hari pertama hingga ketiga.


Trip kali ini menyaksikan sepasang peserta berminat dengan plaza fabrik dan kain yang terletak berhampiran Sun Yat Sen University.


Sepasang yang lain pula berminat utk memborong beg2 di kawasan Baiyun World Leather Centre dan sekitarnya.

Day 3 : Baiyun International Leather Centre - Yide Lu

Sarapan pagi kami ialah di restoran La Mian terletak berhampiran jejantas yang menghubungkan Yi Sen Leather Centre dengan Baiyun Leather International Centre.


Kedai kepunyaan En Omar ini agak bersih berbanding kedai En Omar yang lagik satu yang dekat dengan Hotel Jin Jiang Inn Sun Yat Sen Memorial Hall. Jadi berselera sikit nak makan. Dengan sepinggan mee tarik dan sedikit lauk dan sayur sudah mampu untuk alas perut hingga ke petang. Harga pula tidak mahal hanya RMB 10.


Menghabiskan masa lebih kurang 2 jam di area situ.

Apa yang agak mengejutkan kebanyakkan kedai tidak menjual beg AAA berjenama Prada, LV, Guess dan Gucci dan lain2nya. Mengapa ya?? Seperti mana di Plaza TAR dan GM begitu jugalah disini. Menjelang

Day 2 : Zhongshanba - Sun Yat Sen University

Hari ini hari kedua Trip Belajar Memborong di Guangzhou berlangsung. Destinasi hari ini ialah Zhongshanba.

Zong Shan Ba Rd ( Zong Shan Ba Lu) 中山八路97号荔湖大厦.

Di Zhongshanba terdapat dua plaza untuk pakaian kanak2 dan aksesori.

Setelah dua jam disana (1000 - 1200) kami bertolak ke Sun Yat Sen University untuk melawat Plaza Fabrik dan Tekstil. Apa yang menarik, laluan Metro untuk ke Sun Yat Sen University bukan lagi Line 2, tetapi telah ditkar menjadi Line 8. Dari Line 2 perlu tukar di Changgang untuk ke Line 8. Sekiranya dahulu Line 2 tamat di Wanshengwei ke arah selatan, kini stesen akhir Line 2 ialah Guangzhou South Railway Station.

Day 1 : Airport Baiyun - GZ - Xiaobei - Liu Hua

Day 1 : Trip belajar Memborong ke Guangzhou, China

Perjalanan dari Baiyun International Airport ke Guangzhou cukup menarik kali ini. Persiapan menjadi tuan rumah Sukan Asia sedang giat dijalankan. Banyak rumah dan bangunan di tepi highway dicat baru. Kerajaan tempatan Guangzhou memberikan peruntukan kepada premis2 dan bangunan untuk mengecat baru bangunan mereka.

Pemandangan depan hotel JinJiang Inn

Cuaca di Guangzhou sekitar 22°C dan keadaan berkabus. Trip kali ini disertai oleh dua orang pasangan suami isteri. En Jamal dan Puan Hanim dan En Faesal dan Puan Azlin. Keempat-empat mereka belum pernah ke Guangzhou sebelum ini.
Kami tiba di hotel Jinjiang Inn tepat jam 1050 pagi. Urusan kemasukan (check in) cukup menguji kesabaran kami, proses check in menjadi lambat kerana saya berbincang panjang dengan pihak hotel berkenaan loyalty card dan juga harga bilik rate Canton Fair pada hari 14-15 Oktober 2010 yang menyaksikan harga bilik naik 150%.

Tip : Elakkan datang ke Guangzhou pada Canton Fair sekiranya anda tidak ada agenda di Canton Fair. Segala2nya boleh menjadi mahal!

Selepas berehat seketika kami makan tengahari di Xiaobei Lu di Restoran Al Rafideen. Memang perut orang melayu kecil sahaja. Makanan yang diorder utk 3 orang pon tak habis di makan oleh 5 orang.

Guangzhou: Per Capita GDP Exceeds US$10,000

In 2006 the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of Guangzhou in south China's Guangdong Province grew 14.4 percent to make it the first mainland city to generate a per capita GDP greater than US$10,000.

China Business News has published an interview with Peng Peng, an official at the Guangzhou branch of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. He said the city's GDP grew to 623.6 billion yuan in 2006, up from over 545 billion in 2005. The city has 7.0266 million permanent residents so the per-capita GDP now actually exceeds US$11,000.

Peng said per-capita GDP was generally considered a more reliable measure of economic development than GDP alone. The World Bank considers regions with a per capita GDP greater than US$10,000 to be developed.

But Peng also said the figure wasn't a completely accurate indication of economic development because it only accounts for residents with permanent homes. The city plans to lift the per capita GDP for all of the city's residents to more than US$10,000 by 2010.

Per capita GDP in Hong Kong and Taiwan surpassed US$10,000 in 1987 and 1992. The International Monetary Fund's GDP rankings for 2005 show 45 countries and regions have a per-capita GDP greater than US$10,000 dollars. Hong Kong and Taiwan ranked 23rd and 37th at $24,581 and $13,926 respectively. The mainland ranked 106th with US$1,703.

Guangzhou surpassed Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen in 2005 when its per capita GDP was US$8,500 compared to US$5457, $7600 and $7300 respectively in the other cities.

In a report released at the just-concluded party conference officials said the city would maintain the per capita GDP above $10,000 until 2010. They'll also focus on improving the quality of economic growth instead of the previous growth-above-all policy.

An insider from the local government revealed the city will focus on economic restructuring. It will introduce further reforms and work to alter the current model of growth to ease environmental pressures.

To Guangzhou via Hong Kong

Since January 2010, Air Asia has had promoted cheap ticket to Hong Kong. Many didn't know that, it is sometime cheaper to travel to Guangzhou via Hong Kong. Here I share three options that you can choose according to your time, budget and convenient

Option 1 ( Not so cheap but less hectic. Please allocate 4 hours time if you are into something)
Bus direct from Hong Kong Airport to Guangzhou. You can buy the ticket from the counter at terminal one inside the Hong Kong International Airport. It will cost you RMB 250. The journey will take you around 2 and half hour. But beware...it will take longer if the check point at the border is busy. For example during holidays and weekend. The bus from Hong Kong airport will stop at Huangang. There you need to pass the border.You need to board new bus after entering China Mainland.
More information Click here

Hong Kong International Airport Bus Terminal

Option 2 (Fast and reliable)
Buy train via Hung Hom Train Station. Take the airport shuttle number A21. You can take the bus at terminal 2 of the Hong Kong International Airport. Normally it will take 50 minutes for you to arrive at the Hung Hom Station. There buy the train ticket to Guangzhou East. It will cost you RMB 230. The travel time is approximately two and half hours.

Option 3 (Cheap but quite adventurous.Please allocate 4 hours time if you are into something)
First take airport bus shuttle number A43 to Sheng Shui Station. It will take you around 50 minutes to arrive there. There board the metro towards  Lo Wu. Lo Wu is located at the border between Hong Kong and China Mainland. From the station you have to walk around 10 minutes to cross the border. Immigration process will take normally 20 minutes. But during holidays and weekend, it could take more than that. You will enter China Mainland and arrive at Shenzhen Train Station. Buy a ticket to Guangzhou East. The journey long for only one hour. I have tried this during my 3rd visit to GZ. What I can say, you must have the guts to choose this option! All together will cost you only RMB 130. Cheap huh.....

Guangzhou vs Yiwu

ALhamdulillah saya kini di GZ masuk hari keempat dan akan pulang Jumaat ini. Trip kali ini adalah yg paling mencabar saya rasa. Dengan pelbagai ujian dan dugaan yang dihadapi, harapnya trip masa akan datang akan menjadi lebih teratur dan kemas.

Beberapa update GZ

Yide Lu dalam pembinaan. Jalan sangat sesak dan berabuk. Sukar nak bergerak dan cari barang dalam keadaan selesa.

Masjid Makam Saad Abi Waqas juga dalam pembinaan. Tidak dibuka untuk umum sepanjang pembinaan.

Harga barangan nampaknya ada kenaikan. Bila ditanya kpd peniaga kenapa harga mahal, mereka beri alasan masalah forex yg menyaksikan nilai RMB agak menyusut kebelakangan ini.

Tiket Air Asia jg makin mahal ke GZ.

Ini kali ketiga saya ke GZ. Pada Januari lalu saya berpeluang utk kali pertama ke Yiwu.

InsyaALlah bila pulang nanti saya akan buat entry perbandingan atr Yiwu dan Guangzhou.
