Chen Yuzhen, a "Blue Committee" from Kinmen, once again expressed his willingness to go to the mainland for communication.
When the capsizing incident occurred on the mainland, Chen Yuzhen, a "legislator" from Kinmen of the Kuomintang, spoke out on many occasions, saying that she was very worried that the incident would become a tipping point for cross-strait misfire. She appealed that the Taiwan authorities should authorize Jinma County, which often communicates with the mainland, to hold direct talks with the mainland on economic issues such as fishing rights and sea areas, and she can also come forward to communicate.
With the arrival of the second group of family members of the deceased in Kinmen today, the family delegation and representatives of the "Coast Guard" continued consultations in the afternoon. Chen Yuzhen, who was quite worried about the increasing intensity of the capsizing incident of the fishing boat, also took a special flight back to Kinmen today to meet with a delegation of family members and express her condolences.
In an interview, she once again said that if it is conducive to the work of communication and coordination between the people on both sides of the strait, and it is necessary for her to make efforts to assist in communication, she is willing to go to the mainland to "talk" with them.
However, Taiwan rejected Chen Yuzhen's appeal yesterday, and Vice Chairman Zhan Zhihong responded that cross-strait talks are the power and responsibility of the Taiwan authorities, but he has no objection to local personages enthusiastically participating in the transmission of information between the two sides of the strait.
Kuomintang Matsu "legislator" Chen Xuesheng also said today that the people on the mainland are boiling over and the soldiers on both sides of the strait are fighting fiercely and in danger, so it is not possible to talk to the county magistrate and the "legislator" of Jinmen and Matsu? He revealed that he had called the "IOC"* to ask whether he needed to be a mediator and lubricant, but the other party ignored it.
