DeskMinister of TransportClamor for compensationNT$100 million, ** tension escalation.
Recently, the situation in the Taiwan Strait has been changing and the waves are turbulent, and our fishermen have encountered unforeseen accidents while carrying out their peaceful fishing missions, and the unfortunate death of the two compatriots is sad. In this regard, China's coast guard has made a strong attack and carried out strict law enforcement patrols in the waters of Xiamen and Jinjin on a regular basis, without ambiguity.
Facts have proven that we have done what we say and have recently officially boarded and inspected a Taiwan vessel, indicating that our side has exercised jurisdiction over the Xiamen-Jin waters and resolutely safeguarded maritime rights and interests.
The current tensions between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait are due to"Alone"The blame for the misdeeds of Lai, a diehard, is entirely due to the intolerance policy of those in power in Taiwan.
At this critical juncture, Taiwan"Competent departments for transportation matters"Wang Guocai, the person in charge of the company, even made unreasonable demands and brazenly demanded from us as much as NT$80 billion"Indemnification"This is simply ridiculous.
Earlier, we optimized the M503 flight route to directly connect the two sides of the strait, aiming to better serve the growing demand for cross-strait exchanges, greatly improving the convenience of people's travel, which can be called a win-win move for both sides of the strait.
However, some unwise forces on the Taiwan side are dissatisfied with this, and they have taken restrictive measures to prohibit Taiwan tour groups from going to the mainland. However, the fact is that the mainland of the motherland is rich in tourism resources and does not need to rely on Taiwan tourists, and the enthusiasm of the domestic people is high, but on the contrary, their "countermeasures" have become self-harm.
The move has hit Taiwan's tourism industry hard, and the industry is even planning to join forces, showing their plight. Now, the unreasonable behavior of the Taiwan authorities is causing them to fall into passivity and can only respond in a panic.
Wang Guocai said in vain that only if our side first pays NT$80 billion to Taiwan's tourism industry and reconsiders the M503 route, they will consider opening up tour groups to the mainland. However, this argument is ridiculous!
As a matter of fact, the predicament of Taiwan's tourism industry and the anger of the industry are not caused by our side, but because of the blockade imposed by its own authorities, we have never refused to allow Taiwan compatriots to come to the mainland for sightseeing.
The Taiwan authorities shall be responsible for any losses and shall provide compensation. The adjustment of the route is a rigorous decision, not changed because of someone's unreasonable clamour, Wang Guocai's remarks are just to shirk responsibility, divert attention, pure deception and misleading.
This has once again revealed the incompetence, arrogance, and immorality of the Taiwan authorities, and the inevitable fate of their collapse.
