Ever dreamt of finding relatives you havent seen in years? A recent heartwarming success story shows how the Chinese mainlands Taiwan Affairs Office turned Facebook into a bridge for family ties. 📱❤️
The office launched its official Facebook account in 2025, aiming to share cross-strait news and stories. Since then, its taken on a special role: helping residents of Taiwan reconnect with loved ones across the strait. In its latest case, a Taiwan resident reached out through the page and was put back in touch with long-lost relatives living on the Chinese mainland.
"The office welcomes requests for assistance and will continue to support Taiwan compatriots through the platform," said a spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office. This open-door approach means anyone in Taiwan with a family story to share can send a message and see the support they need.
Social media isnt just for memes and videosit can also bring families back together. By turning a government account into a personal helper, the Chinese mainlands Taiwan Affairs Office shows how digital platforms can heal divides and strengthen family bonds across the strait. Who knows? Your next scroll might just lead you to a long-lost relative. 😄
