Mainland China announced today that it would allow people from Fujian to travel to Matsu. The Mainland Affairs Council claimed that it did not comply with the so-called principle of reciprocal opening up. In this regard, Fu Kunqi, the general convenor of the Chinese Kuomintang caucus, shouted to Lai Qingde, the leader of the quasi-Taiwan region, during an interview on the afternoon of the 28th: "You must have the courage to face the real and substantial development of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait."
In an interview before attending a symposium with Taiwanese businessmen on the afternoon of the 28th, Fu Kunqi said that the two sides of the Taiwan Strait should have frequent exchanges, put aside their past grievances, and look at both sides in a larger context. When Ukraine and Palestine fall into war, the whole world is Paying attention to the Taiwan Strait, the Chinese Kuomintang braved all the artillery fire and went to the mainland with Taiwan's new public opinion in the hope of achieving peaceful development across the Taiwan Strait and resuming comprehensive exchanges.
Fu Kunqi said that since Lai Ching-te has publicly expressed his hope for a healthy dialogue, the two sides of the Taiwan Strait must have mutual trust and consensus. "Mr. Lai Ching-te, you must have the courage. In the face of real and substantive peaceful development on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, if you have a direct relationship with a small Pingtan and Taiwan maritime passenger transportation Setting infinitely high thresholds for the resumption of flights shows that the DPP’s pattern is just like this.”
Fu Kunqi pointed out that since the DPP is in power, if it still sets up many obstacles to cross-strait tourism, only 2,000 people will be allowed to travel a day. How to comprehensively coordinate the entry of more than 30 provinces in the mainland? Now that the mainland has stated that it will open more than 40 million people from Fujian to Taiwan, "both sides should show sincerity to each other."
Regarding the goodwill released by the mainland, the Mainland Affairs Council said in the afternoon It accuses China of imposing additional conditions and extremely narrowing the scope of opening up. The relevant arrangements neither comply with the principle of reciprocal opening up nor are they the norm for tourism travel. The Mainland Affairs Council said that the follow-up will be further clarified by the Mainland Affairs Council, the transportation department, etc. before making a decision to facilitate actual implementation and ensure healthy and orderly communication.
