Cross-Strait youth summit opens in Beijing

Young people should be fully aware of the opportunities brought to them by Chinese modernization and contribute their wisdom and strength to cross-Strait integration, said Xu Xiao, president of the All-China Youth Federation, at the same ceremony.

In a speech delivered via video link, Ma Ying-jeou, former chairman of the Chinese Kuomintang (KMT), urged young people across the Strait to engage in in-depth exchanges, learn from each other, and work together to create a bright future for the Chinese nation.
