The vice chairman of the Kuomintang (KMT), Zhang Ronggong, mentioned that it has been ten years since the last visit by a KMT chairman to the mainland. The peaceful trip made by former KMT chairman Lien Chan to the mainland in 2005 and the previous meeting between leaders of the KMT and the Communist Party of China (CPC) were separated by 60 years. In other words, the KMT chairman's visit to the mainland is due to the instability of cross-strait relations, with the hope of stabilizing the cross-strait relationship. This time, the resumption of the "KMT-CPC Think Tank Forum" aims to promote various exchanges across the strait through various communication platforms between the two sides.
Zhang Ronggong emphasized that regarding the visit of Chairman Zheng Liwen to the mainland, both sides are still in communication. Because the mainland has important political agendas, the progress will be reported to everyone at an appropriate time.
