China News Service, February 8 (Xinhua) Zhu Fenglian, a spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, said on the 8th that Taiwan compatriots can come to the mainland to study and work, visit relatives and friends, and travel and exchange with peace of mind.

As for the goal of mainland tourists coming to Taiwan claimed by the DPP authorities, in fact the DPP authorities still impose restrictions on people from the mainland, Hong Kong and Macau to visit Taiwan.

The so-called 1 million mainland tourists, how to get there?

Where do we start?

  On the 8th, the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council held a regular press conference.

A reporter asked: According to statistics, during the Spring Festival, there were 308 million trips in mainland China, and 2.877 million people entered and exited China.

However, due to the political manipulation of the DPP authorities, the tourism industry on the island has no chance to share the dividends of the recovery of tourism in the mainland.

Taiwanese businessmen expressed that they miss mainland tourists, and the DPP authorities should improve cross-strait relations.

Any comments on this?

In addition, the DPP authorities stated that the goal of tourists coming to Taiwan in 2023 is 6 million, of which 1 million are from the mainland.

  In this regard, Zhu Fenglian said that the travel situation in the mainland during the Spring Festival you mentioned illustrates a fact: as the epidemic prevention and control work in the mainland enters a new stage, economic and social life including tourism is fully returning to normal.

Taiwan compatriots can come to the mainland to study and work, visit relatives and friends, and travel and exchange with peace of mind.

  As for the target of tourists coming to Taiwan claimed by the DPP authorities you mentioned, do you think it is credible?

Since last year, Taiwan’s Mainland Affairs Council has repeatedly stated that it will gradually resume healthy and orderly cross-strait personnel exchanges, but this is just empty talk. In fact, the DPP authorities still impose restrictions on people from the mainland, Hong Kong and Macau to go to Taiwan.
