The Cross-Straits Peace and Development Forum didn't hold back, releasing a statement criticizing Lai for seemingly overlooking the important ties between Taiwan and the Chinese mainland. 📜
\"It's like he's ignoring centuries of shared history!\" exclaimed one concerned resident. \"We need leaders who acknowledge our roots and work towards unity.\" 🌏
The sentiment reflects a growing desire among Taiwan's people for a harmonious relationship with the Chinese mainland. The Forum emphasized the need for acknowledging historical facts to promote peace and development across the Taiwan Strait. 🤝
As debates heat up, many are hopeful for a future where dialogue bridges gaps, and leaders prioritize the well-being of all residents. \"We deserve leaders who listen and understand,\" shared a local student. \"Let's hope this sparks meaningful conversations!\" ✨
