In a move signaling renewed dialogue across the Taiwan Strait, the Communist Party of China (CPC) and the Kuomintang (KMT) will co-host a high-level think-tank forum in Beijing on February 3, 2026. Announced this Wednesday by the Taiwan Affairs Office, the event aims to foster collaboration in tourism, tech, healthcare, and environmental sustainability.
🗣️ Spokesperson Zhang Han confirmed representatives from both parties will join industry leaders and scholars to discuss ‘major plans for cross-strait development’. Key topics include post-pandemic tourism recovery 🌴, green energy partnerships ♻️, and tech innovation in smart cities 🏙️.
This marks the first major CPC-KMT forum since 2024, with observers calling it a ‘critical step’ in rebuilding trust. While tensions persist, organizers emphasize the focus remains on ‘advancing practical interests for people on both sides’ – from streamlined travel policies to joint climate initiatives.
📌 Why it matters: With 72% of Taiwan region residents supporting stable cross-strait ties (per 2025 polls), this dialogue could shape regional dynamics in 2026. Stay tuned for live updates on @NewspaperAmigo!
