The integrated development of the two sides of the strait is the aspiration of the people and the trend of the times. In the first year of fully implementing the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and striving to start a new journey of Chinese-style modernization, a special document was issued to support Fujian to explore a new path of cross-strait integrated development, build a cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone, and put forward new important requirements for the development of Fujian. For a period of time, Fujian has fully undertaken a package of support measures, and the province has deepened the implementation of various tasks deployed in the first document. The Fifth Plenary Session of the 11th Provincial Party Committee held a few days ago systematically studied and comprehensively deployed to promote the construction of the cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone, reviewed and approved the implementation of the "Implementation Opinions" of the first document in our province, unified thinking, strengthened confidence, gathered strength, and played a strong voice of the times of integrated development, which has an important role in deepening the integration of various fields on both sides of the strait, realizing the beautiful vision of integrated development, and promoting the process of peaceful reunification of the motherland.
The construction of the cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone has endowed Fujian with a new major historical mission, major political responsibility and major development opportunities on the new journey.
The construction of the cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone has clarified Fujian's positioning, mission and tasks in implementing the party's overall strategy for resolving the Taiwan issue in the new era, and further pointed out the direction of efforts to strive to write a chapter of Chinese-style modernization in Fujian, which is of great significance to promoting the construction of a new Fujian.
The construction of a cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone carries the great trust of expectations for Fujian. Fujian is separated from Taiwan by a body of water, is close to each other, and has close proximity to people, so it has unique advantages and good conditions for Taiwan work. During his work in Fujian, the general secretary attached great importance to doing a good job in Taiwan work, paid attention to the Taiwan issue, and cared about Taiwan compatriots, proposed that Fujian is the most important province for Taiwan work, stressed that Fujian should do more in doing the work of the Taiwan people, and made every effort to promote exchanges and cooperation between Fujian and Taiwan, and cultivate the feelings of the people on both sides of the strait. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the general secretary has made many important instructions and instructions, requiring Fujian to strive to build the first home for Taiwan compatriots and Taiwan enterprises to land, and take greater steps in exploring the new road of cross-strait integration and development. Under the care and care of the general secretary, the construction of the cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone has been deployed and promoted in the form of a document, which has further strengthened Fujian's major responsibility in the overall work with Taiwan. The research and deployment of the construction of the cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone at this plenary session is to guide the whole province to keep in mind the earnest entrustment and ardent expectations of the general secretary of Fujian Province, firmly stride forward in the direction guided by the general secretary, and firmly support the "two establishments" and "two maintenances" with practical actions.
The construction of a cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone conforms to the overall trend of promoting peaceful development. Those who observe the situation are clear, and those who are trending are wise. Not long ago, the people of Taiwan elected "vaked" as Taiwan's annual representative character, while the people on both sides of the strait jointly elected "rong" as the annual representative character of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait. On the one hand, there are hundreds of "deficiencies" that are difficult to solve, and on the other hand, there is a sharp contrast between the hope of "integration" and "integration," which fully demonstrates the mainstream public opinion of "peace, development, exchanges, and cooperation" between the two sides of the strait. No hardships and obstacles can cut off the flesh and blood compatriots who are connected by blood, nor can they stop the dream journey of the two sides of the strait. The construction of a cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone is a major policy measure of the party and the state toward Taiwan, which conforms to the general trend of the times and wins the support of the people on both sides of the strait. We must implement the goals and tasks of building a cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone, work together with Taiwan compatriots to grasp the general trend of history, adhere to the national righteousness, and jointly promote peaceful development and integrated development.
The construction of a cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone has stimulated strong momentum for promoting high-quality development in an all-round way. Fundamentally speaking, how much room Fujian has for exchanges and cooperation with Taiwan and how much it can do in exploring a new path of cross-strait integration and development depends on our own development and progress. Practice has proved that the development of Fujian and the integration of Fujian and Taiwan are one and the same, organic and unified, and the two complement each other and are the paths of each other. On the one hand, the total GDP of Fujian and Taiwan exceeds 10 trillion yuan, the population exceeds 65 million, and the market prospects are broad. On the other hand, the construction of the cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone has received strong support from the national level, and various supporting measures are full of "gold content", which will bring many benefits to Fujian's economic and social development and further release the potential and vitality of high-quality development. We must firmly grasp the major development opportunities, completely, accurately and comprehensively implement the new development concept, and promote all-round high-quality development with comprehensive integration.
After years of continuous struggle, Fujian and Taiwan should continue to advance, economic and trade cooperation should continue to deepen, and people-to-people exchanges continue to expand, Fujian is increasingly becoming the first home for Taiwan compatriots and Taiwan enterprises to land, and the construction of a cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone is timely and promising. The plenary meeting of the Provincial Party Committee benchmarked the "top-level design" and clarified the roadmap and task book for exploring new roads and making demonstrations. The goal has been set, and the key is implementation. The whole province should adhere to the principle of promoting integration through communication, promoting integration with benefits, and promoting integration with affection, focusing on the needs of integrated development and the expectations of Taiwan compatriots and Taiwan enterprises, first easy and then difficult, step by step, continuous advancement, and long-term success, actively act, innovate and make breakthroughs, form a number of pioneering and pilot experiences, create a number of landmark achievements, and strive to make greater strides in promoting the social, economic, and emotional integration of Fujian and Taiwan, and make a demonstration for deepening cross-strait integration and development.
Build and share the first home, help Taiwan compatriots better integrate into the "Fujian" life, and deeply feel the warmth of "home".
Expanding the social participation of Taiwan compatriots and enhancing the integration of local life are the "must-answer questions" for the construction of cross-strait integrated development demonstration zones. The plenary session of the provincial party committee proposed to make greater strides in promoting social integration between Fujian and Taiwan. Among them, the aim is to support more and more Taiwan compatriots to participate in the construction of the "first homeland" and actively create conditions for the vast number of Taiwan compatriots to come, stay, integrate, and develop well.
Expand social participation to a deeper extent. Guiding Taiwan compatriots to participate in various public affairs more extensively and deeply can effectively enhance their sense of belonging and enhance their sense of "ownership." Fujian has always been at the forefront of the country in supporting Taiwan compatriots to participate in ecological and environmental protection, rural revitalization, social welfare and other undertakings, and a number of advanced models such as Taiwanese science and technology correspondents and community builders have emerged. The direction of the next stage of work should be to strengthen policy support, build a place for Taiwan compatriots to participate in the practice of social participation, deepen the practice of joint construction, co-governance and sharing between Fujian and Taiwan, and launch more public service projects and grassroots governance posts that are convenient for Taiwan compatriots to participate in, and work together to achieve the effect of "1+1 2". At the same time, we will further broaden the channels for social participation, support Taiwan compatriots to join industry, academic and professional social organizations in the province, serve as the responsible persons and legal representatives of non-religious social organizations such as Taiwan-funded enterprise associations, and deeply participate in the construction of the rule of law in Fujian, so that Taiwan compatriots can be more familiar with and understand the institutional and social environment of the mainland, better integrate into the work and life of the mainland, and more quickly realize the transition from "meeting and acquaintance" to "knowing and blending" with mainland compatriots.
Continued from the third edition).
More pathways to promote academic success. Educational exchanges and cooperation are an important entry point for integrated development. At present, 38 colleges and universities in the province have opened up enrollment to Taiwan, and in recent years, more than 1,000 Taiwan students have been studying in colleges and universities in our province every year. As the first province in the mainland to recruit Taiwan students and the only province with its own enrollment policy for Taiwan, Fujian will, as always, open the door for Taiwan students to study and exchange, and build a gathering place for Taiwan compatriots to study and study. The existing policies to support the children of Taiwan compatriots in attending school should be comprehensively refined and optimized, so as to truly achieve the goal of "welcoming students to study, treating them equally, and enrolling them in the nearest school." Actively explore diversified cooperation in the fields of higher education and vocational education between Fujian and Taiwan, carry out joint education, form educational alliances, build a number of cross-strait youth research bases, adopt more flexible methods to expand the scale of enrollment of Taiwan students, and build a broad stage for Taiwan students to improve themselves and broaden their horizons.
Achieve livability and business on a wider scale. This place of peace is my hometown. Whether work and life can be safe, smooth and comfortable is a prerequisite for Taiwan compatriots to take root and integrate. With the implementation of a series of policies and measures benefiting Taiwan compatriots in our province, it is becoming more and more convenient for Taiwan compatriots to work hard and build nests in Fujian, but there may still be some "terminal endings" obstructions to be broken. For example, in terms of providing living convenience, we will promote Taiwan compatriots to enjoy the treatment of local residents in Fujian in terms of medical treatment, house purchase, pension services, social assistance, etc., and enrich the application scenarios of Taiwan residents' residence permits in society. Another example is that in terms of providing employment support, we will further expand the scope of direct recognition of Taiwan's vocational qualifications, so that "all should be adopted and recognized", promote the employment of Taiwan compatriots in schools, hospitals, and scientific research institutions, and promote more Taiwan professionals to work in Fujian and achieve more wonderful career development.
Greater efforts should be made to protect the rights and interests of Taiwan compatriots. The Dharma is also the instrument of the world. Only by protecting the legitimate rights and interests of Taiwan compatriots on the track of the rule of law and giving play to the role of the rule of law in consolidating the foundation, stabilizing expectations, and benefiting the long-term can we give Taiwan compatriots a "reassuring pill" and eliminate their worries to the greatest extent. As economic and trade cooperation and personnel exchanges between Fujian and Taiwan become more and more in-depth and frequent, Taiwan-related contradictions and disputes may also gradually increase, and it is particularly necessary to improve Taiwan-related judicial services. In response to the intrinsic requirements of integrated development of rule of law safeguards, it is necessary to strengthen systematic planning, integrate rule of law resources, and accelerate the creation of a preferred place for Taiwan-related judicial services. With the goal of promoting the specialization of Taiwan-related justice, the standardization of mutual assistance, the refinement of services, and the normalization of exchanges, strengthen the functions of Taiwan-related services such as the Maritime Silk Road ** Legal District and the Cross-Strait Arbitration Center, promote the construction of platforms such as Taiwan-related public legal service centers and Taiwan-related legal identification centers, improve the quality and efficiency of the operation of judges' offices and procuratorial liaison offices for the protection of the rights and interests of Taiwan compatriots, provide intelligent, professional and efficient legal services for Taiwan compatriots, and effectively enhance the sense of rule of law for Taiwan compatriots.
Tighten the ties of mutual benefit and win-win results, increase the weight of economic and trade cooperation, and build a vivid situation in which the economies of Fujian and Taiwan are coordinated and progressive, and the quality and efficiency are improved.
Economic and trade cooperation is like a "ballast stone" and an important support for promoting integrated development. The plenary session of the provincial party committee proposed to make greater strides in promoting the economic integration of Fujian and Taiwan. The key lies in fully tapping the complementary effects and potential advantages of the two places in the economic field, enlarging the "cake" of common interests, focusing on stabilizing the stock, expanding the increment, and improving the quality, so as to promote the economic and trade cooperation between Fujian and Taiwan to achieve new and greater results.
Industrial cooperation focuses on complementing each other's advantages. Business is a win-win situation, and a good is not spring. Since the first Taiwan enterprise in the mainland settled in Fujian in the 80s of the last century, the industrial cooperation between Fujian and Taiwan has entered the stage of "deep cultivation and meticulous cultivation" from the stage of "initial exploration". In the context of the accelerated development of a new round of scientific and technological revolution such as 5G, Internet of Things, and artificial intelligence, industrial cooperation between Fujian and Taiwan is changing from factor-driven to innovation-driven. The top priority is to speed up the creation of an "upgraded version" of industrial cooperation between Fujian and Taiwan, coordinate linkage and echelon development, and realize total growth and energy level improvement go hand in hand. Manufacturing cooperation is facing the dilemma of low-end lock-in, and should focus on extending the chain to supplement the chain and strengthen the chain, accelerate the pace of transformation and upgrading, and build a globally competitive industrial base and advanced manufacturing cluster. Agricultural cooperation should further highlight its characteristics, continue to be at the forefront, promote the construction of cross-strait rural revitalization cooperation bases, and promote the in-depth docking of agricultural resource elements. On the basis of covering all business formats, financial cooperation focuses on openness and empowerment, develops multi-level financial markets, and introduces more financial "living water". Scientific and technological cooperation still needs to be deepened, and it is necessary to promote the deep integration of the innovation chain, industrial chain, capital chain, and talent chain, carry out joint research on key common technologies, and jointly build a large platform for cross-strait scientific and technological research and development.
Connectivity is convenient, efficient and convenient. Integrated development, the foundation is in the "pass". Fujian has taken the lead in realizing three-dimensional sea and air connectivity with Taiwan, which has effectively promoted personnel exchanges, factor flows, and economic development between Fujian and Taiwan. Giving full play to the geographical convenience and building a two-way channel between Fujian and Taiwan is only the first step in deepening the integrated development of Fujian and Taiwan. The construction of transportation and logistics infrastructure is moderately advanced, promoting the upgrading and expansion of passenger and freight facilities to Taiwan, improving the regional logistics distribution system, and accelerating the construction of connecting Fujian and Taiwan with the Yangtze River Delta, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and the central and western regions. **Focus on improving efficiency, strengthen the transit capacity of "China-Europe Express", "Silk Road Shipping" and "Silk Road Flying", strengthen and optimize shipping express, cold chain logistics and other characteristic businesses to Taiwan, promote land-sea linkage at home and abroad, east-west two-way mutual aid, and bring together more goods on both sides of the strait "through Fujian and through the world".
The development environment focuses on helping enterprises and benefiting the people. Creating a first-class Taiwan-related development environment has received extensive attention from Taiwan compatriots and Taiwan enterprises. Fujian's actual use of Taiwan-funded capital and the number of newly established Taiwan-funded enterprises rank among the top among all provinces and municipalities in the mainland every year, indicating that Fujian's overall development environment is relatively attractive to the vast number of Taiwan compatriots and Taiwan enterprises. There is no optimal development environment, only better, and we must make greater efforts to optimize the "soft environment" for investment and development. In view of some institutional obstacles and restrictive thresholds for the development of Taiwan compatriots and Taiwan enterprises in Fujian, it is necessary to further relax market access and better serve the implementation of Taiwan enterprises' projects, increase capital and expand production, transformation and upgrading. It is necessary to continue to promote more Fujian and Taiwan industries to use the same technical standards and implement the same set of management norms, reduce the cost of integration and development of Taiwan enterprises, and realize the seamless connection of technology, industry and market. Taiwan's agriculture and fishery and small and medium-sized enterprises are an important force to promote integrated development, and it is necessary to provide development opportunities and share development dividends for relevant practitioners in Taiwan in the fields of e-commerce, cultural tourism, agriculture, and fishery, so as to bring tangible benefits to the grassroots people in Taiwan.
Pave the way for people-to-people bonds, promote the spiritual harmony of compatriots, and make the atmosphere of "one family on both sides of the strait, and Fujian and Taiwan close to each other" stronger.
Only by communing with the heart can it become long-lasting. The people of Fujian and Taiwan have a sense of closeness by blood, and people-to-people ties can provide the most basic, solid and lasting impetus for integrated development. The Plenary Session of the Provincial Party Committee proposed to make greater strides in promoting the emotional integration of Fujian and Taiwan. Its foothold is to deepen the family ties of compatriots, enhance mutual recognition, build a common spiritual home, and promote the people of Fujian and Taiwan to become closer and closer.
Frequent visits and active people-to-people exchanges. People-to-people exchanges seem to be "ordinary", but they have "extraordinary benefits". The more enthusiastic the interaction between the people of Fujian and Taiwan, the smoother the integrated development will be. Since 2023, there has been a clear trend of warming up non-governmental exchanges between Fujian and Taiwan, and the 15th Straits Forum has attracted the active participation of people from all walks of life in Taiwan, with the largest number of political party delegations participating in the conference, and more than half of the "new faces" of Taiwan compatriots participating for the first time, which fully reflects the strong desire of the majority of Taiwan compatriots to accelerate the resumption and expansion of cross-strait exchanges. Facts have proven that no matter how the situation in the Taiwan Strait changes, the emotional ties between Fujian and Taiwan will not be broken. As the forefront of exchanges with Taiwan, Fujian should maintain the momentum of people-to-people exchanges, take the in-depth implementation of the project of extending the family affection and nostalgia of Fujian and Taiwan, and the project of historical display and traceability as the starting point, and take the holding of good brand activities as the carrier to continue the good family and hometown feelings, protect the common memory, write the word "rong" more abundantly and vividly, and promote the people-to-people exchanges between Fujian and Taiwan to continue to go deeper, to the truth, and to the heart.
Walk in the same direction and actively engage in cultural exchanges. Fujian and Taiwan cultures have the same root and origin, and the foundation of cultural integration is very solid. Based on the common cultural genes and common cultural resources, Fujian should take the initiative to take the initiative to build a "heart-to-heart bridge" with literature as a medium, and promote Taiwan compatriots to enhance the centripetal force of Chinese culture and enhance national identity and national identity under the inspiration and edification of culture. To promote cultural exchanges between Fujian and Taiwan under the new situation, the focus is to be a good "promoter" of cultural transformation and utilization, jointly inherit the characteristic cultures of southern Fujian, Mazu culture, Hakka culture, Zhuzi culture, etc., and enhance the influence of ancestral cultureBe a "pioneer" in extending the cultural exchange space, jointly build cooperation platforms for film and television culture, pop culture, sports culture, etc., cultivate a number of cultural leading enterprises, launch a number of high-quality film and television programs, and create a number of major event brandsBe a good "narrator" of spreading the good voice of Fujian and Taiwan, jointly tell the story of Fujian, the motherland, and the story of integrated development, seek the greatest common divisor, and draw the largest concentric circles.
Blending and mingling, and active youth exchanges. Young people are active and full of vitality, and they are the "new force" of integrated development. Young people have similar interests and hobbies, common ways of thinking, and many common languages, so communication is more sincere and natural, and it is easier to collide with sparks of ideas. The youth exchange work between Fujian and Taiwan started early, was wide-ranging, large-scale, and multi-form, and should focus on long-term interaction, and through more frequent, in-depth, and diverse exchanges, we should generate mutual resonance and empathy, so that young people's hands can be tightened and their hearts can be brought closer together. The normalized exchanges of youth groups should continue to bring forth the new, further enrich the connotation of the activities of the Straits Youth Festival and the Straits Youth Forum, and use the experiential exchange center for Taiwanese youth to promote the unity and exchange of primary and secondary schools and youth societies in Fujian and Taiwan, and expand the common "circle of friends" of young people in Fujian and Taiwan. There are more than 80 employment and entrepreneurship bases for Taiwanese youth in our province, which have played an active role in enhancing mutual trust and integration among young people in Fujian and Taiwan. In the next step, it is necessary to iteratively upgrade the construction of the base, strengthen the agglomeration effect, improve the counseling function, and help more Taiwanese young people to come to Fujian to pursue their dreams, build their dreams, and realize their dreams.
The construction of a cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone is not only an in-depth promotion of the whole field, but also a coordinated development of the whole region. The plenary session of the provincial party committee proposed to build a new pattern of integrated development in the whole region. Judging from the actual situation in various localities, each has its own foundation and advantages in its work with Taiwan. Xiamen and Kinmen, Fuzhou and Matsu are close at hand, the people have deep feelings, personnel exchanges have been very close, with the ability to accelerate integration, deepen integration, and create a "city life circle" of "geographical advantages" and "people";Pingtan is the only comprehensive experimental zone for Taiwan in the mainland, which has the policy advantage of being the first to try and has the special positioning of the cooperation window between Fujian and TaiwanQuanzhou and Zhangzhou are the main ancestral hometowns of Taiwanese compatriots in the Hokkien-speaking region, and they are also the main birthplaces and dissemination places of Hokkien culture, with strong cultural radiationLongyan and Sanming are the ancestral lands of the Hakka people, and have a deep relationship with the Hakka people in Taiwan, and Sanming has good conditions for the integrated development of villages on both sides of the straitPutian is the birthplace of Mazu culture, and the Mazu faith has many believers on the island of TaiwanNanping has obvious ecological advantages, and has a solid foundation for cooperation with Taiwan in industries such as cultural tourism and health careNingde has seized the opportunity on the new energy track, and the magnetic attraction effect of industrial clusters has been continuously released. To do a good job in the article of global integrated development, it is necessary to adapt measures to local conditions, better understand and grasp our own advantages, consolidate existing advantages, dig deep into potential advantages, continuously enrich the practice path of integrated development, and drive global promotion with local breakthroughs, so as to form a development trend of global integration, comprehensive improvement, and participation of the whole people.
To build a cross-strait integrated development demonstration zone, it is necessary to implement the party's leadership in the entire process of all aspects of work to ensure that all goals and tasks are implemented and effective. The position pattern is further improved, firmly establish the awareness of "a game of chess", insist on seeking a domain from the overall situation, serving the overall situation with a domain, and strive to add color to the overall situation with the light of a domain. The implementation of responsibility is further strengthened, and the main responsible comrades should take the promotion of the construction of the demonstration zone as the "number one" project, shoulder the responsibility, and stimulate the "vitality of the group of geese" with the "head goose effect", and lead all parties to think in one place, work hard in one place, and twist into a rope, so as to form a work situation of grasping the level at the level and grasping the implementation at all levels. The promotion mechanism will be further improved, strengthen communication and docking with the first ministries and commissions, actively strive for more guidance and support, provinces, cities and counties will plan and advance synchronously, explore the establishment of a scientific target system and evaluation system, and build an integrated, overall promotion, and efficient and collaborative working mechanism. The benchmark of work is further raised, the benchmark is first-class, and if you see it, you will do it quickly, do more if you can, seek more ways to improve the well-being of compatriots, do more things to strengthen exchanges and cooperation, and promote spiritual fit.
The tide is wide on both sides, and it is the right time to set sail. The integrated development of the two sides of the strait is not only a great righteousness, but also a greater benefit. As long as the compatriots of Fujian and Taiwan walk in the same direction, go hand in hand, work together in harmony, work together, and have the courage to explore a new path of cross-strait integration and development, they will be able to write a brilliant chapter in the construction of the cross-strait integration development demonstration zone, create the long-term well-being of the Chinese nation, and share the great glory of national rejuvenation!
