Former Taiwanese President Ma Ying-jeou will visit China from April 1st and will also stay in the capital, Beijing. All eyes are on whether he will meet with President Xi Jinping.

Taiwan's Democratic Progressive Party government does not accept ``one China,'' and China has refused dialogue between its authorities on this basis. If the two actually meet, it will be President Xi's first meeting with a prominent Taiwanese official since Taiwan's presidential election in January. It is attracting attention as an opportunity to demonstrate our future stance toward Taiwan both at home and abroad.
