Wendy Xu Jelimo, an 11-year-old jovial Kenyan girl, is an old hand of stage performance.

At a reception organised by the Chinese Embassy in Kenya and the Kenyan government early this month in Nairobi, the Kenyan capital, to celebrate six decades of China-Kenya diplomatic relations, Wendy led a group of children singing a lovely song, titled Jambo, in Swahili and Chinese.
