China’s Taiwan Affairs Office announces initiatives to enhance cross-strait exchanges, focusing on tourism and youth engagement, following a high-profile meeting between Ma Ying-jeou and Xi Jinping. The office aims to overcome obstacles for better cooperation and plans several events to encourage Taiwanese youth participation.

Former Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou’s 11-day visit to China sparks speculation of a meeting with Xi Jinping, as TAO announces arrangements but remains non-committal. Zhu Fenglian praises Ma’s adherence to the ＂One China policy＂ and his efforts in promoting cross-strait youth exchanges, criticizing Taiwan’s DPP for hindering these interactions.

Former Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou embarks on a peace mission to China, aiming to ease cross-strait tensions and promote youth exchanges. Speculation surrounds a potential meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping.

The story discusses the criticism of the revival of the Cross-Strait Service Trade Agreement (CSSTA) by Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) spokesperson Chang Chih-hao. Chang argues that the CSSTA, an outdated agreement from a decade ago, could harm Taiwan’s interests. This statement was in response to calls from Kuomintang (KMT) presidential candidate Hou Yu-ih and Taiwan People’s Party (TPP) candidate Ko Wen-je to reopen the service trade pact with China. Chang criticizes the China-centric economic and trade policies of former President Ma Ying-jeou, which he believes led to an unbalanced cross-strait economic environment. He highlights the negative impact the CSSTA could have on Taiwan’s industries, jobs, and salary levels. Chang also points out Taiwan’s recent economic achievements, such as the stock market’s performance, while noting China’s high youth unemployment rate. The DPP supports healthy and fair cross-strait exchanges but emphasizes the importance of avoiding political motives and unfair trade. Chang calls for a balanced approach to cross-strait economic and trade agreements and stresses the need for open communication with society when dealing with China’s economic coercion.
