Host city makes guests feel welcome

As part of Xiamen's preparations for the BRICS Summit, a double-decker bus has been broadcasting melodies written and composed by local residents all across the city to spread its reputation for friendship and hospitality.

As the bus circles Xiamen Island on the ring road, onlookers add their voices as well. Anyone scanning a QR code with their smartphone can get the lyrics in Mandarin, English and the southern Fujian dialect.

"The bus is close to our daily life, so it's a good way to spread culture," said musician Yang Mu, who helped launch the program. He contributed more than 30 songs to the project.
