Promote cross-strait integration in a meticulous manner

  The report mentioned that we should deepen cross-strait integrated development, enhance the well-being of compatriots on both sides of the strait, and work together to create the great cause of national rejuvenation.

Zhu Songling, a professor at the Taiwan Institute of Beijing Union University, believes that since the "Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Supporting Fujian in Exploring New Roads for Cross-Strait Integrated Development and Building Cross-Strait Integrated Development Demonstration Zones" was promulgated last year, a framework for promoting cross-strait integrated development demonstration zones has been gradually established. This year There will be new measures in terms of piloting, and there may be breakthroughs in measures involving procedures and procedures related to cross-strait exchanges; policies to support the employment, investment and development of Taiwan compatriots and Taiwanese companies in the mainland will also be intensified.

  Ni Yongjie said that the mainland has continued to advance in promoting integrated development, and Taiwan compatriots are also eager to see new results in the construction of demonstration zones. They hope that relevant experiences can be extended to Guangdong, Shanghai, Jiangsu and other southeastern coastal areas and even the central and western regions, so that more compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait can share the development dividends. .

  Yang Yizhou found that this year there were many proposals from Taiwan Federation of Industry and Commerce committee members that provided solutions to problems encountered by Taiwanese compatriots in their development in the mainland, such as assisting Taiwanese companies and businessmen in transforming and upgrading, expanding the mainland market, and participating in high-quality development.

  Zeng Liqun noticed that the relevant expressions in the report have changed from "enhancing the well-being of compatriots in Taiwan" to "enhancing the well-being of compatriots on both sides of the strait", which more clearly shows that achieving the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and the complete reunification of the motherland requires the joint efforts of compatriots on both sides of the strait, and the results of integrated development will also will benefit both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
