(Central News Agency reporter Chang Shu-ling, Beijing, 11th) Wang Huning, Chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, today met with representatives attending the cross-strait cultural and media summits in Beijing, including Kuomintang Vice Chairman Chang Jung-kung. He stated that the summit aims to demonstrate the confidence of people on both sides of the strait in building a common homeland for the Chinese nation. Chang Jung-kung emphasized that the laws and systems on both sides of the strait define cross-strait relations within the framework of "One China."
Mainland China will hold the "Third Cross-Strait Chinese Culture Summit" and the "Cross-Strait Media Professionals Summit" on the 11th and 12th respectively. Before the opening of the summits, Wang Huning met with the participating representatives at the Great Hall of the People. Taiwanese attendees at the meeting included Chang Jung-kung, Yin Chi-ming (Secretary-General of the Cross-Strait Entrepreneurs Summit), Feng Ming-chu (former Director of the National Palace Museum, Taipei), veteran director Chu Yen-ping, and artist Annie Yi.
Mainland Chinese attendees at the meeting included Song Tao (Director of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council), Zhao Shitong (Deputy Director), Chen Binhua (Director of the Information Bureau), Zhang Han (Director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office), Yin Li (Secretary of the Beijing Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China), and Huo Guang-feng (Director of the Beijing Municipal Taiwan Affairs Office).
In the part of the meeting open to media coverage today, Wang Huning stated in his speech that this summit focuses on the theme of blood ties and cultural affinity, aiming to demonstrate the common belief of people on both sides of the strait that "the national territory is indivisible, the nation cannot be in chaos, the people cannot be dispersed, and civilization cannot be cut off." It also aims to demonstrate the mission and responsibility of people on both sides of the strait as guardians, inheritors, and promoters of Chinese culture, and their confidence and determination to build a common homeland for the Chinese nation.
He said that General Secretary of the Communist Party of China Xi Jinping delivered an important speech when he met with Kuomintang Chairperson Cheng Li-wen on April 10. This summit is an important action to implement the spirit of Xi Jinping's speech.
In his speech, Chang Jung-kung put forward three points on continuing to promote peaceful cross-strait development. First, based on Chinese culture, "from a national perspective, people on both sides of the strait are all Chinese, one family."
Second, it should be governed by legal systems. He stated, "In fact, the laws and systems on both sides of the strait define cross-strait relations within the framework of 'One China,' which is a very clear reality." Therefore, as long as this reality is utilized and the cross-strait consultation mechanism is activated, there will be a political foundation.
Third, it should use common memories such as the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression as a medium.
