JERUSALEM, May 5 (Xinhua) -- Sarah Ross, a 96-year-old Jerusalem citizen, is eyewitness to the birth of two modern nations, both led by ancient peoples: China and Israel.
She grew up as a Jewish refugee in Shanghai during World War II, and has lived in Israel since 1948.
Sarah's experiences symbolize a hardy connection between the two countries. On the walls and in the cabinets of her tidy, simple home, her extensive collection of Chinese furniture, wall- hangings and paintings, vases and small statues embody her memories of life in Shanghai.
