China News Service, Taipei, August 23. August 23 is the 63rd anniversary of the Golden Gate artillery battle.
The former leader of the Taiwan authorities, Ma Ying-jeou, expressed on social platforms that he hopes that the two sides of the strait can continue to restart the interrupted consultations and exchanges on the basis of the "92 Consensus." Since it was possible in the past, there is no reason for it now.
Based on reports from Taiwanese media such as United News Network and China Times News Network, Ma Ying-jeou also pointed out that only cross-strait reconciliation can turn the battlefield in the past into a avenue for peace on both sides of the strait.
We cannot change history, but we can create a peaceful future.
The candidates for chairman of the Chinese Kuomintang, Jiang Qichen and Zhu Lilun, went to Kinmen to participate in the commemorative activities on the 23rd.
Zhu Lilun said that he hopes to tell friends all over the world that mainstream public opinion in Taiwan is by no means the "Taiwan independence" promoted by the DPP authorities and Tsai Ing-wen.
It is worth noting that Tsai Ing-wen and the heads of related departments were absent from the day's commemoration on the grounds of epidemic prevention.
The person in charge of Kinmen said that it is difficult for the public to accept.
