Taiwan Affairs Office Spokesman Chen Binhua: In April of this year, Taiwan Affairs Office of the Central People's Republic of China was authorized to issue 10 policies and measures to promote cross-strait exchanges and cooperation, clearly proposing to facilitate the import of Taiwanese agricultural and fishery products that meet inspection and quarantine standards; support Taiwanese agricultural and fishery products to participate in various exhibitions and matchmaking meetings in mainland China to expand sales channels; and research to facilitate the sale of Taiwan's pelagic self-caught catches in mainland China. Over the past half a year, we have been working with relevant parties on both sides of the Strait to respond positively to the concerns of Taiwanese fishermen on the basis of adhering to the “1992 Consensus” and opposing “Taiwan independence” politics by holding matchmaking appointments, optimizing customs clearance procedures, and supporting participation in various exhibitions, etc., and continued to push for the implementation of the ten measures. In the first three quarters of this year, imports of agricultural products from Taiwan increased by 18.5% year on year, with imports of fishery products increased 35.5% year on year. From April to September of this year, that is, after the 10 measures were issued, Fujian imported 191,000 tons of Taiwanese fishery products, with an import value of 585 million yuan, an increase of 35.9% over the previous year. More and more high-quality fishery products from Taiwan are entering thousands of households in mainland China, and more and more Taiwanese fishermen are getting benefits from them.
