D ean Ochieng’-Odhiambo said table tennis holds a significant place in Chinese culture and was an important tool for diplomacy and improving relations with other countries. He said the establishment of the CI at Cave Hill Campus “reflects the recognition at the highest levels of the campus leadership that the campus needed to be internationalised if it was to transform and also remain relevant to its community. “The decision to establish the CI also had the
