‘Motherland’s strong support will benefit Taiwan’

XIAMEN: People in Taiwan can enjoy better lives and have greater space for development since they have the support of a strong motherland to rely on, China’s top political adviser Wang Yang said.

Wang, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and chairman of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference National Committee, made the remark while addressing the 14th Straits Forum in Xiamen, Fujian province. The annual forum has 43 events and has attracted around 2,000 people from Taiwan to attend.
