[Explanation] The Lunar Year of the Rabbit is approaching, and Xiamen Wutong Wharf is decorated with lights and festoons to celebrate the first Spring Festival after the "mini-three links" passenger routes resumed partial navigation.
With longing for their families, the Kinmen folks and their mainland spouses quickly cleared the customs with large and small bags of luggage for the New Year, and couldn't wait to go home and reunite with their relatives.
[Explanation] In order to allow compatriots to return home with both speed and warmth, the police at the Gaoqi border checkpoint in Xiamen wrote Spring Festival couplets by hand with brushes, carefully prepared round lucky bags, and set up a "concentric zone" at the entry and exit site. People who are familiar with Hokkien The local police provided timely assistance to passengers in difficulty, and at the same time sent lucky bags and Spring Festival couplets.
[Site Synchronization] This is a Spring Festival couplet written by our policeman himself.
That's great, thank you.
[Site Synchronization] Wow, (Spring Festival couplets) are really well written.
It's really beautiful, and I have to stick it up when I go back.
[Explanation] I am excited to be able to take the "small three links" passenger ship to go home for the New Year after three years. Yang Yiyu, who is studying medicine at Wuhan University, has not forgotten the desire of her classmates to eat authentic Taiwanese food. She has already listed nougat , pineapple cakes, etc., and plan to go back to Taiwan from Kinmen to purchase with my mother, and bring them to my classmates after school starts.

I am very excited and happy, because I can finally go home, I will go back to Taiwan, and then I can buy delicious food.
[Concurrent] Mainland spouse Dai Cuijuan
It’s very Chinese New Year’s atmosphere, because I haven’t had this feeling for three years, and the old pier didn’t seem to do it like this before, but it’s very old-fashioned. This year feels very different, and I haven’t been back for three years, plus This mood is also excited, so I feel that everything looks good.
[Explanation] At the entry and exit site of Wutong Wharf, the beaming "Tongxin Special Zone" attracted many tourists. Before the boat sailed, they took the time to ask the border police to help take pictures. Some Kinmen folks went to Write your best wishes for the new year on the message board.
[Concurrent] Xiang Yuting, a native of Kinmen
Because it has not been fully opened yet, even if there are not many people, it is hoped that it can return to the previous crowd.
(Take the "small three links" passenger ship) This will be more convenient, because it mainly saves time. If you are in Kinmen, you don't have to go to Taiwan's main island to come here again, which saves time.
[Explanation] As the "Small Three Links" passenger route of Xiamen-Jinjin Airlines partially resumed on January 7, nearly 2,000 passengers had cleared the customs as of January 21. It is estimated that during the Spring Festival holiday, the average daily flow of inbound and outbound passengers at Wutong Port is about 100. More people.
In order to improve the customs clearance experience for compatriots, Xiamen Gaoqi Border Inspection Station launched a series of heart-warming measures to create a warm and peaceful customs clearance atmosphere.

I feel very kind, because a few years ago, we welcomed compatriots on both sides of the strait at this pier every day. During festivals, we always create some port atmosphere to warm the passengers on their way back home.
When I came back to this scene this year, I saw that the wharf was back to its usual busyness, and I felt very cordial when I heard the familiar accent of Taiwan compatriots.
[Explanation] Dai Na, who has been on duty for many years in the inspection of "small three links" passenger routes, returned to Wutong Wharf three years later. Although the verification station and other equipment have been replaced and upgraded here, it looks a little strange, but in her eyes it is still the most familiar position.
Dai Na told a reporter from China News Agency that border inspection work is not a repetition of simple procedures, but also a heart-to-heart exchange during the festival.
[Same period] Dai Na, deputy captain of the third comprehensive duty team of Xiamen Gaoqi Border Inspection Station
We check the documents of different passengers every day, day after day, year after year. It may seem repetitive, but in fact, every passenger has some stories behind them when they pass the customs.
We help them at the front desk, and when we provide border inspection services to them at the front desk, it is actually a positive heart-to-heart communication, and it is actually a kind of emotional flow.
[Explanation] The strong taste of the New Year is on the way home. Passengers who are eager to return quickly clear the customs and check their tickets and board the passenger ship to Kinmen. As the cables are untied one by one, the passenger ship slowly leaves the pier. Kinmen shipping staff warmly waved, and after saying goodbye in the Year of the Rabbit, the border police on duty faced the sea and watched "the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming".
