BEIJING, March 15 (Xinhuanet) -- China's top
political advisors on Tuesday issued a statement to resolutely support the
promulgation of Anti-Secession Law, the legal framework to prevent Taiwan's
secession from the country.
The statement, issued by subcommittee for Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan Compatriots and
Overseas of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political
Consultative Conference, said the new law had far-reaching influence on
promoting a peaceful reunification of China and maintaining stability on both
sides of the Taiwan Straits.
"The law legalizes the policy guideline of the
central authorities on Taiwan, and gives full expression of China's consistent
position to do its utmost with maximum sincerity for a peaceful reunification,"
the statement said.
It said the law won all supports from the committee
and the members had pledged consistent efforts to promote personnel exchanges
across the Straits, facilitate direct links of mail, shipment and air
transportation between the Chinese mainland and Taiwan, and strive for the
prosperity of the country.
On Monday, The National People's Congress, China's
legislature,passed the Anti-Secession Law with overwhelming votes. It was later
enacted by President Hu Jintao's order. Enditem |
