Amid growing global economic tensions, a high-ranking mainland official has urged businesses and residents of Taiwan to join forces in tackling external challenges. Song Tao, head of the Taiwan Work Office of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, emphasized unity during a Friday meeting with Taiwan business representatives in Nanjing.
'The U.S. tariff war won't shake our fundamentals,' Song declared, highlighting the mainland's economic resilience. He pledged stronger support for Taiwan firms, including policy measures to boost supply chain connectivity and ensure equal treatment.
Key highlights from the meeting:
- Plans to address operational hurdles faced by Taiwan businesses
- Commitment to deepen cross-strait industrial cooperation
- Call for confidence in long-term economic synergy
This outreach comes as businesses across the Taiwan Strait navigate complex trade winds. Could this signal a new phase of economic teamwork? Only time will tell, but one thing's clear: collaboration is the new currency in an uncertain global market.
