China to advance peaceful development of cross-Straits relations

China will continue to advance the peaceful development of relations across the Taiwan Straits and national reunification, according to the full text of the Party leadership's development proposals.

The document, which was made public Tuesday, stressed upholding the one-China principle and the 1992 Consensus while promoting the peaceful and integrated development of cross-Straits relations.

Efforts should be made to strengthen cross-Straits industrial cooperation and foster a common market for the two sides, it said.

Policies will be fine-tuned to better safeguard the well-being of Taiwan compatriots and ensure they enjoy the same treatment on the mainland, according to the document.

Taiwan businesspersons and enterprises will be encouraged to participate in the Belt and Road cooperation and national strategies for regional coordinated development, said the document.

Eligible Taiwan-funded enterprises will be supported to be listed on the mainland, it said.

Fujian Province will be supported to explore new ways of cross-Straits integration and development, the document noted.

The document also highlighted the importance of enhancing communication at the grassroots level and among young people across the Straits.

The mainland will stay on high alert and resolutely curb any "Taiwan independence" secessionist activities, it added.

China to enhance cultural soft power

China will strengthen efforts to develop cultural undertakings and industries, and enhance the country's cultural soft power, according to the full text of the CPC Central Committee's development proposals.
