01:03 And also my Chinese friends,

01:07 when I started to make friends with them,

01:25 and for Sham, it was an advantage when she applied for jobs.

01:32 speaking Mandarin has opened doors for her to join talent events overseas,

01:37 such as Let's Sing Kids in China and Jungle Voice 2 in Taiwan.
