Some Taiwan compatriots believe that the release of the "Opinions" will make Taiwanese businessmen and Taiwanese compatriots more confident and determined to take root in Fujian; More opportunities; and Xiamen will gain more empowerment to achieve a higher level of integration, and the "Xiamen-Finance Common Living Circle" will become a model of cross-strait integration.
Taiwan compatriots are more confident to take root in Fujian. Integration and development is a new opportunity for Taiwan
"Fujian is speeding up the construction of a cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone, and the central government has also issued relevant policies to increase support, which makes us Taiwanese businessmen and compatriots more confident to take root in Fujian and share the opportunities and policy dividends brought about by Fujian's development." National Federation of Taiwan Enterprises Wu Jiaying, executive vice president and honorary president of the Xiamen Taiwanese Entrepreneurs Association, said in an interview yesterday that in recent years, Fujian has actively explored a new path for cross-strait integration and development, and made every effort to build Taiwan compatriots and Taiwanese enterprises to land in the "first home" and promote the "first home". The construction of the "New Four links" should be tried first, and innovative measures to benefit Taiwan have been introduced continuously, so that Taiwanese businessmen and compatriots are more determined to invest, start businesses, work and live in Fujian.
"The two sides of the strait are close relatives, and Fujian and Taiwan are close relatives. Fujian and Taiwan are separated by a river, and tens of thousands of Taiwanese companies have taken root, grown and grown here. In recent years, more and more Taiwan compatriots have come to Fujian to develop and live." Wu Jiaying pointed out , The deepening of exchanges and cooperation between Fujian and Taiwan, and the continuous acceleration of the construction of the "first home" for Taiwanese enterprises from Taiwan compatriots have greatly promoted the integration and development of the two sides of the strait. Taiwan compatriots and Taiwanese enterprises have gained a full sense of happiness in Fujian. The central government issued the "Opinions" to support Fujian to accelerate the construction of a cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone, which will create a more convenient and convenient environment, and will inevitably attract more Taiwan compatriots to start businesses, start businesses, and enjoy their businesses in Fujian.
Wu Jiaying said that now that the mainland of the motherland is focusing on promoting high-quality development, the development of private enterprises, including Taiwan-funded enterprises, is ushering in new opportunities, which will also inject new impetus into Fujian-Taiwan economic and trade cooperation. In the new era and new journey, I hope that more Taiwan compatriots and mainland compatriots will meet each other and work together to create the great cause of the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
Lei Qian, chairman of the Taiwan Chinese Women's Federation, praised Fujian for actively exploring new paths for cross-strait integration and building a cross-strait integration development demonstration area. Talking about the "Opinions" issued by the central government to support the construction of a cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone in Fujian, Lei Qian said that this "opinion" can make compatriots on both sides of the strait, especially Taiwan compatriots, seriously think about whether the two sides of the strait should choose war or peace, prosperity or backwardness. Choose integrated development or cross-strait confrontation.
In an interview with a reporter from the Herald, Cao Yuanzhang, a former Taiwanese citizen who has taken root in Xiamen, believes that Fujian’s exploration of new paths for cross-strait integrated development and the construction of cross-strait integrated development demonstration areas will bring more opportunities to Taiwan.
People eagerly hope that the Jinma people will have the most sense of gain when the bridge is electrified
"The people in Taiwan, especially the people in Kinmen and Matsu, are very grateful for the mainland's policy of favoring Taiwan. I hope that in the future, there will be full communication between the two sides of the strait, including the construction of the Xiamen-Jinjiang Bridge and the electrification projects in Fujian and Jinma."
Cao Yuanzhang said that the integrated development of Fujian and Taiwan will help improve the quality of life and convenience of the people in Kinmen and Matsu. For example, he said that Kinmen used to suffer from severe water shortages. After Jinjiang officially opened water to the Kinmen water supply project, more than 70% of the people's livelihood water in Kinmen came from Jinjiang. "I am from Matsu. If the bridge between Matsu and Fujian is connected to electricity and ventilation in the future, the people of Matsu will definitely feel the improvement in their quality of life. If the Xiamen-Jinjiang Bridge is completed, the Xiamen-Jinjiang life circle will be fully realized."
Cao Yuanzhang mentioned that the daily life and economic and trade ties in the Jinma area are closely related to Fujian. Therefore, the people in the Jinma area have more affection for Fujian and even the whole mainland. This can be seen from the fact that the proportion of Jinma people who support "anti-independence and promoting reunification" is the highest in Taiwan. out. The people of Jinma will have the most sense of gain from the benefits brought about by the construction of a cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone in Fujian.
For the upcoming "Opinions", Taiwanese media predict that it may contain two aspects: one is to improve the "equal treatment" for Taiwanese people in Fujian, and to attract more Taiwanese people to work and live in Fujian; the other is to strengthen the relationship between Fujian and Jinma. For communication and integration, the focus should be on infrastructure such as bridges and electricity to create a "one-day living circle".
Su Heng, chairman of the Taiwan China Strait Economic and Trade Exchange Association, believes that how the two sides of the strait can integrate and develop has actually been trying to explore, especially in Fujian. "I can feel that the mainland takes care of Taiwan compatriots in every possible way." She called on the Taiwan side to sit down with the mainland side to have a good talk about how the two sides of the strait will integrate and develop, and how to eventually move towards peaceful reunification.
