Chinese culture vital to exchanges across the Straits in the new era

Chinese culture has always been a basis and driving force of cross-Straits exchanges and cooperation. In the new era, Chinese culture will keep playing an essential role in uniting compatriots from both sides of the Straits to work together to realize the Chinese Dream of national rejuvenation.

With 2018 marking the 40th anniversary of reform and opening-up, and Jan 1, 2019, marking the 40th anniversary of a Message to Taiwan Compatriots, nearly every aspect of exchanges across the Straits has deepened, increasingly injecting new impetus into the peaceful development of cross-Straits relations.

Pop music from Taiwan campuses became popular on the Chinese mainland in the 1980s, bringing plenty of artistic enjoyment and the island's latest news to mainland compatriots.
