Lien Chan said that former President Li has a longevity of nearly one hundred years and a longevity. As a devout Christian, you will always rest in peace. He sincerely hopes that former President Li’s wife and her family are safe and healthy. He pointed out that former President Lee, who once described himself as a “Jingguo school student,” ruled for twelve years. During this time, the country’s democratic deepening and economic development, the performance is obvious to all, and history will not be forgotten. However, it cannot be denied that important issues such as national identity and national positioning have also changed during this period and have still become factors that are detrimental to cross-strait peace, the stability of the Taiwan Strait and the unity of the people.
Lien Chan noted that he had been appointed by former President Lee as Foreign Minister, President of Taiwan Province, Chairman of the Executive Yuan, and Vice Chairman of the Kuomintang. He was also elected the ninth president and vice president of the ROC. At the same time, he claimed that former President Lee created the National Unification Council and served as its own president, presided over the formulation of the National Unification Program and put an end to the interim mobilization and rebellion clauses, ushering in a new era of negotiations across the Strait. He also clearly stated that “Taiwan’s economic development must be based on the mainland.” , Advocating “the Chinese help the Chinese people” on both sides of the strait. All of this will help promote cross-strait peace and common development, and promote the security and prosperity of Taiwan. For these trips he participated directly in a personal way.
However, Lien Chan also said that, unfortunately, the aforementioned line was not consistent, and was even completely reversed in the later period, which once led to a crisis in the Taiwan Strait, and to this day, continues negatively affecting the crossing of the Strait towards peace and common prosperity. The tense and hostile situation before the icebreaker trip across the Strait in 2005. Especially recently, as Mr. Zhang Nianchi put it, the identification of the Taiwanese people with the “ROC” will profoundly affect the development of relations across the Straits. across the Strait. How can the authorities on both sides of the Strait create an appropriate plan acceptable to both sides to maintain the status quo of cross-strait peace on the basis of mutual trust, mutual respect and mutual benefit, rather than allowing that Taiwan is reduced to a pawn played by other countries only for the benefit, or even eventually become their abandonment and the fact that they are heading towards an armed confrontation across the Straits, endangering the safety and well-being of the people of Taiwan are definitely the most worthy of deep consideration at this stage.
Lien Chan said that whether it’s the merits and demerits of former President Lee, or the differences between the two over national identity, national positioning and the future of the party, they can all be commented on by people from all walks of life and generations. future. But I think everyone is concerned about the pursuit of peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait and Taiwan. The heart of security and prosperity is the same. The supposed deceased are gone and those who come can be traced. Now everyone should work together to seek peace and development in Yanhuang Shizhu.
