<!-- START OF : div id="storytext"-->NANYANG Girls' High student Sylvia Tang never thought she would one day get to meet Chinese President Hu Jintao.
But she did on Friday, thanks to a video link-up.
Mr Hu is on a state visit to Singapore, while the 15-year-old and 44 other Nanyang students are in Shanghai, where they are attending classes at the High School Affiliated to Fudan University as part of their two-month immersion programme in China.
During a tour of Nanyang Girls' campus in Bukit Timah, Mr Hu chatted with the students via a video conference.
'How are you doing in Shanghai?' he asked. He also encouraged the students to study hard, make many friends and learn more about Chinese culture.
Sylvia told The Straits Times in an e-mail message: 'It was really cool to be able to say 'hi' to President Hu and his wife even though we were in a geography class in Shanghai.'
Read the full report in Saturday's edition of The Straits Times.
