Soong in Xinhua reporter ch'iang in Taiwan. (Wu Jing Teng photo) PFP Soong on November 4, led a delegation to participate in cross-strait agriculture Zhejiang water cooperation seminar and visit to the continent. Prior to that he received in Taipei in Taiwan, Xinhua NET in an exclusive interview with journalists, introduced his delegation's visit to the Mainland itineraries designed and arranged that explains his new situation on both sides of the political dialogue and further development of cross-strait relations, enhance mutual understanding between the people on both sides and opinions and ideas. Cross-Strait from adversity to total wealth and total births and deaths of journalists Chairman: song fate, you good！ PFP will and continent in Ningbo joint cross-strait agriculture cooperation Exchange in water sector, you will again visit the Mainland. May I ask why you want to organise an exchange activities? Soong: this activity was in September 2005, the PFP jointly organized with the Central "Strait elite Forum" Gung continued, form improved, that is, we put this time called the Conference, on both sides of cooperation from the "sit," to "up" to the specific Exchange cross-Strait in agriculture, fisheries and water experience. Selected at this moment the will, there are three important significance. First, cross-strait peace and development to further its essence into cooperation development, not only the peace and, more importantly, through the process of cooperation, mutual understanding, mutual exchange of experience, further to the feelings of the Strait, between the requirements in the process of mutual cooperation. Mainland China has repeatedly referred to the cross-strait relations should resort to the general public's opinion. The past is a party and party, this time we hope to further. This forum is only the Communist Party and the PFP, we also invite the Kuomintang, the new party and other non-party, common problems on these important to exchange experiences, is a hierarchy and level more expanded Conference. Secondly, I would like to mention in particular, why elections in Ningbo, that is, we know very well that Taiwan is almost non-partisan, everyone for Chiang are given very highly, and CCK young growth in Ningbo. Go back today, Chiang was in time to take care of farmers, fishermen, making Taiwan agricultural and fisheries could develop into a world class standard. Elections in his hometown for agriculture water exchanges, promotion of mutual I also noted the recent State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, with particular emphasis on how to further enable the development of cross-Strait in the cooperation process, created to work together. I think we should start fair-weather process, developed our common business and common as our future can share the wealth. From adversity to total wealth, then the total births and deaths, a common fate. I think that this is our choice at this point to the importance of exchanges. Reporter: you will not be around to see this Chiang grew up in Fenghua? Soong: certain! after the meeting, I will go to Fenghua, see Chiang Kai-shek, Chiang their hometown, but at the same time, a long-cherished wish to see such a beautiful Fenghua. Reporter: in recent years, your exposure in the media. Therefore, for your visit to the Mainland, the outside world is that you are reading through cross-strait exchanges to the Lake ", what is this you? Soong: actually I politics, never ignore a significant problem of cross-strait relations. Therefore, it cannot be said that I would use such a variety, to express my concern to both sides of the transaction, or Taiwan internal development, I have nothing personal ideas. I have a say too, I am willing to do the "cross-strait peace and development of the volunteer", that is how to enable cross-strait relations, Taiwan people to truly meet future demand, to their safety, well-being is the best care, especially the will of the people became the masters of Taiwan can be reached. In "one roof" schema under the "cross-Strait belong in" premise, how to further integrate cross-Strait, and this is my future will remain of concern. Reporter: you said that "cross-strait peace and development volunteers" this word, you have also referenced the Mainland volunteer slogan "I participate, I dedicate my happiness." Would you say the "cross-strait peace and development volunteers" what meaning? James: I went to Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, see viewing the many volunteers for the Olympics, and they on the wall-write the words: "I participate, I dedicate my happiness." I have the feeling that, for the development of cross-strait peace, I would like to become a volunteer with the the nouns are called Taiwan "volunteers", that is not paid to the "my participation, I offer", not for my personal happiness, is the hope that our daughters, our Taiwan's folks, their descendants are able to be happy. We come to the cross-strait peace and development and dedication. Delays in the cross-strait political dialogue will enable Taiwan missed Reporter: you may 2005 visit to the Mainland, and General Secretary Hu Jintao reached Communique. Today, looking back on it, many of which content is very forward-looking insights. As the current cross-strait relations to a new situation of peaceful development of the founders, you on future development of cross-strait relations have any blueprint or vision? James: I for the first time in 2005 should be Hu Jintao of General Secretary of invited to Beijing, "bypass" trip. At that time the "bypass" the two words are also widely used for everyone, now even Taiwan official instruments are used. Both sides need to bypass, the bridge is a bridge of the soul. The distance between the two sides, is not a geographical distances, but psychological distance. The psychological obstruction removed, no terrorist fantasy. If the two sides to minds, they will be wellprepared. General Secretary Hu and I signed the communiqué of the basic concepts, gradually most in promoting implementation. I want to especially thank General Secretary Hu and the mainland people from various sectors, spend a lot of time, make great efforts to promote the implementation of common ideals. For example, cross-strait direct flights already implemented, cross-strait direct investments in progress. In 2005 I and KMT chairman Lien Chan to the Mainland to visit, work together to promote the work of these, we feel is quite effective. We hope to continue to strengthen, deepen cross-strait peace and development, and finally as I do "bypass tour"The "Chinese people not to bite, a family" on both sides of the brothers, cross-Strait and close, cross-strait reunion. This is our common ideals. Reporter: last night I watched you and General Secretary Hu published a communique, inside the third point explicitly put hostile "promote cross-Strait end, promote the establishment of cross-strait peace architecture". Recently, in Taiwan, the cross-strait political dialogue and consultation is a consolidation (top of) topic. In your opinion, currently possesses the conditions on the end of hostilities, establishing military trust, signed a peace agreement and other issues? Soong: in 1991, I served as Secretary General of the KMT, KMT to actively promote a cross-strait peace and development of programmatic file — the "unification", at the time of administrative agencies have also adopted it. The file referred to in the basic principle of the Mainland and Taiwan belong to one China, cross-strait unification of all Chinese have a shared responsibility. The basic political ideas, I'm from 1991 it is sincere in advance. "Unification" refers to the development of cross-strait relations has three phases, the first call short to medium range, finally reaching the remote, from an economic, cultural and social exchanges, gradually developed into a final political negotiations and political dialogue. After 1991, the progressive development of cross-strait relations, the folk from privately, 2005 after a large-scale, comprehensive cross-strait economic exchanges, now required from the medium-to long-range goals to address the problem of the Strait. In 2005, the General Secretary Hu and I checked in the Communique said — that is, the CPC and the Mainland for the first time in clerical openly stated: "as long as there is no legal move towards the ' Taiwan independence ' of any possibility of development, can effectively avoid Taiwan military conflict. "This sentence is for future political dialogue, do some prep work. Currently, we cannot deny that, if there is no cross-strait political dialogue, on some very difficult to address other aspects of many problems, it is difficult to further mitigate cross-strait some unnecessary disputes. However, cross-strait political dialogue will also require considerable social and political conditions. Basically, each a past of mistrust, suspicion and resentment; aside historical importance to the other side in this 60-year development of political contributions; at the same time, we must understand the changes in the international community. In these three conditions, I believe that the cross-strait politics seem common development is necessary. In 2005, after I came back from the Mainland, in 2006, PFP has formally proposed a major bills "cross-strait peace process", it is clear that through greater transparency and the participation of different political parties, public authorities, cross-strait political dialogue to solve many problems is necessary. This concept, the PFP in 2006 began efforts, unfortunately did not get the KMT and the DPP support. In fact, in the "peace process", including the direct shipping issue, agricultural mutual exchange of questions, Taiwan's participation in international organizations, non-political, are discussed. If you then press the "peace process" to continue to promote, both sides of the political dialogue is considerable. In the "do not have one, under the premise of" unification "of the premise, that is," one roof "," Strait belong to a "premise, to promote dialogue in the process, with special emphasis on transparency, is not a party, the monopoly of political parties in the Taiwan region elections to public opinion as reflected in the Special Committee; any agreement must be made by Taiwan's legislature to make the final authority. There is such a common program, then to cross-strait political consultations, is feasible solution. A very important concept is that we should abandon the past historical scores, not to cause unnecessary controversy. If you do not go for a substantive dialogue, but also to the delay, the result is that Taiwan is a lot of very good opportunities will miss out. Therefore, we feel duty-bound to politicians, the need to continue to promote such a very important issue. Reporter: in March 2000, you boasting high popularity and the momentum established the PFP. Nine years have passed and now we feel the momentum of PFP as before. You think, in the promotion of cross-strait political dialogue, development of cross-strait relations, the PFP also can play the role of? Soong: after 2007, I and the PFP many comrades, think that we are looking forward to is the pan-blue to unity, not because we adhere to certain practices which cause some side effects, so we decided to sink down, play the role of retiring to behind the scenes. Although we take such an action, but there are two things we never relax. First, we fully support the KMT back it's governing authority, to display our shared ideals, the cross-strait situation to have stabilized. Our efforts and work hard, be very, very sure of. 2. for cross-strait issues, PFP has always played three very important role. First, is the leading role. 2000 on the KMT's so-called "two", taken a very firm attitude is not recognized. In cross-strait peace and development, a cross-strait to return to the basic framework and the same basic concept in position, we will always hold a very firm attitude. Second, the third is the role of oversight and brake. "Election 2008", then the Democratic Progressive Party and the KMT has proposed the so-called "referendum", "rulian referendum" and "return with a referendum". PFP in "Central", is maintained and taken a firm stand, does not give consent, shelving changed some decisions. At the same time, in the "election" period, through the people first party and the KMT's senior communication, the last KMT Chairman Wu Po-hsiung accepted the recommendations of the PFP, urges voters to go to these, so the "return with a referendum" finally did not pass. In my view, the PFP in cross-strait relations should also continue to play a positive guide like this, on negative things to play the role of oversight and brake. I do not need to be successful, the position of the firm. Reporter: KMT in 2008 again "ruling", more than a year ago, the new cross-strait relations, including the realization of "comprehensive" three ", opening up the Mainland residents to the Taiwan tourism and so on. Now Taiwan society has some people worry that the cross-strait relations go too fast, but the mainstream of the voices is hope for greater fatExhibition, including KMT Honorary Chairman Lien Chan also calls for cross-strait relations, "the Macedonian Government" to be broken is broken. You on his appeal to what James: I agree with the views of President even honor. Now Taiwan's side of the cross-strait policy is to use the drag-and-or "bury" method, ignoring reality, where avoidance issues. But I think the problem is not only that, the key is in position on the wavering, make us a lot at that time, the KMT was in support of people worried. Worried? that is, any election of a democratic society is basically two things: selected selected policies and selected, that is what you use to perform the kind of policy. Now that people have high expectations, spurned the DPP at cross-strait policy of some practices and corruption, we again take receipt will be displayed after the regime out of momentum, determination, and respond to the needs of the population. Cross-strait issues to handle, the key is to adhere to the current legal framework has pointed out that the Taiwan Strait are a reality ", cannot be avoided, reverberate there, uncertain. We the people first party will continue to carry out their responsibilities, and urged the authorities to highlight the "cross-Strait belong to one-China" political reality, at the same time grasp the current cross-Strait must go to grasp opportunities. 30 years of reform and opening up, China's economic development, has become the world's major economies, with three-lever: first, the continent's first foreign exchange reserves in the world; second, the mainland market in the world cannot ignore; third, the Mainland business opportunities is the world's businesses are not able to ignore the opportunities. Taiwan to think about how to use the three levers, how to get to the "one plus one", to share and work together to create common prosperity of our nation. China now has three advantages: first, the economic world flair duling positive development advantages; Secondly, to really get into the world of the few advantages; the third and most important, the continent's political system has demonstrated the ability to decide and leading this advantage. Taiwan if through political dialogue, in conjunction with the Mainland, you can achieve economic recovery and sustainable development. This is a very good chance that if Taiwan missed, future development of the people's concerns, it is very unfortunate. Mainland Taiwan people should be better than land more mind journalists: recently you at one time, the Dalai Lama's visit to Taiwan, Kaohsiung show beautiful hot Zenobia documentary, on cross-strait relations had a certain impact. You believe in cross-strait relations, what should you avoid similar countercurrent, how can you maintain healthy interaction? Soong: I have just mentioned, the PFP's role has three: one is to guide and supervise the brake. For those of you just mentioned, including the Dalai Lama's visit, hot Zenobia movie show, PFP has played a considerable role of brake and oversight, through the coordination of the party and the party, to our minds the KMT had intensive communication. After development has proved that these are negative effects on Taiwan. These matters, we should firmly expressed views and positions. However, as the development of cross-strait peace volunteers, I hope the folks can understand the Mainland to Taiwan and mainland China, after all, there are some gaps in political culture. Taiwan is one of our own call it open and free society, in fact, the heat than ya this thing, most people do not know even know. Therefore, many people think, desalination, let it ride to overcome this difficulty. Why let this thing into cross-Strait are impinging, causing the impact on our mood. PFP in which adhere to the two basic attitudes. First, we should not let this negative things, resulting in the peaceful development of cross-strait positively affected. Secondly, we also hope that the Mainland side, sometimes on the Taiwan people with a "soft landing" of the way to express the attitude, more positive results can be achieved. I must be stressed that the existing jurisprudence from Taiwan, Taiwan will never be allowed to include "Tibet independence", "Xinjiang independence" and any form of "Taiwan independence" such a thing happens, our position is not changed. However, we also look forward to, not a single event affecting cross-strait relations as a whole, and at a higher level of development. Reporter: Taiwan media there has been rumors, Lee Teng-hui to emulate a long-cherished wish of the Confucius to travel around the continent. It is said that you would like to do this matchmaking. This is true? in the current cross-strait situation, how do you think Lee Teng-hui, Annette "Taiwan independence" partisanship and political figures in the program "login"?: in the last century the residence of the 80 's my tenure as Secretary General of the KMT, Mr. Lee Teng-hui to talk at once, do mention travelled about Confucius. 20 years, I have followed Mr. Lee Teng-hui to him to go to the Mainland. Therefore, this report and the fact that a considerable distance, is very different. Continental leaders said, for Taiwan compatriots, non-partisan, without distinction as to race, as long as you don't go to separatism, welcoming them to the Mainland to visit, to further understand the Mainland. For this position, I give a high degree of certainty. As long as you don't go to separatism, let them learn more about the continent's development especially in the reform and opening up after the many positive, witnessed the continent currently thriving, I think it is a good thing. However, this does not mean that we can allow these people to do some negative things, by a few people use to manufacture Strait unnecessary misunderstandings. In dealing with these things, our position is very clear to maintains cross-strait peace and development. Reporter: as far as I know, you really like to see the film produced in mainland China. You also have our Xinhua said, liked to see the potential. How would you compare the appreciation of what film? you see are the continental has starred in the movie "Jianguo Daye? James: I like to watch the film and the Mainland. Expression through these movies, can see the continent's cultural and social development aspect. I have seen many continental films, both as a pastime, it is to increase awareness of the continent, including the "big family", "days of enthusiasm", "chuangguandong", "the world is the vicissitudes of life, I have seen. From these films, one can see the continent there are great changes, that is no longer uses intense expressions, description of the conflict between the past and, this is the very significant progress, should be given. We can also be moreFurther, these plays to analyze the past, as a continent of words "old days", why would produce two different routes of communism and nationalism, after 60 years of constant conflict and twists, and finally both sides walk back to the same way that socialism with Chinese characteristics. Sun Yat-sen had in his speech, said three people's principles on socialism, communism. In fact, the two parties the common pursuit of ideal, at many levels. To me in Taiwan following the Chiang Ching-kuo-driven, in Taiwan's policy is to take care of farm workers, people-oriented and economically to wealth, political trend can political corruption in the pursuit of fairness and justice in the world in pursuit of the ideal of Datong, this is not socialism with Chinese characteristics? in October of this year's celebrations on the Mainland, finally out of the flower said (target language), I most admire is two words, one called the "rich" countries and rich; the second is called "democracy". This shows that the cross-Strait in walk the winding, bloody past of King of 60 years, the last in the pursuit of national prosperity and the well-being of the people, social harmony and political democracy. To create a win-win situation on both sides, and rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, this is our common goals and aspirations. I have looked at the Jianguo Daye. To two hours, like the dream of so many people at the same time, it is very difficult. My deepest impression, not in direct conflict between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, but have repeatedly stressed the democratic parties inside the role played by the development of China is not only a small part of the political character of some of, but how to condense all of consensus, and let the people live better, so that future generations to live in dignity, for this nation to more prosperous. The film shown by these specific process, invaluable! this theme, let all the Chinese people as a Chinese pride and as a member of the Chinese nation. Reporter: are you sure to mainland Chinese film and drama has considerable knowledge and profound insights. May I ask how do you see the film in the promotion of cross-Strait people understand the role of communication? Soong: Strait through cultural exchange and mutual understanding of each other, this is very important. Cross-Strait to be one, I know you, you know me, mutual respect, mutual understanding, mutual communication in reaching a common language, the "language" is not a written language, the language of the heart. In 2005 I went to visit to Beijing, Tsinghua University speech with special emphasis on the "Taiwan consciousness" and "independence". In this spacious, lovely Island, there are so many Chinese people drift across the seas to stand here, they are condensed in the course of Taiwan consciousness should be respected. However, it is necessary to separate out Taiwan from China this political act is unacceptable. Need for mutual understanding between the two sides. Take a look at the Cape No. 7, see Taiwan people living in those languages, maybe mainland Chinese start cannot accept, however long you'll realize that this is the very nature of cultural expressions. Just like my current to Sichuan, I was a child I remember "that Laozi" is a very vulgar words, but the Sichuan people use "that Laozi" to represent his generous nature, we should also be acceptable. Reporter: you on cross-strait relations and cross-strait situation has in-depth study, what do you think China should do in order to understand the Taiwan people to fight for the Taiwan people? James: I think the best way is to understand, communicate, so that more folks to the Mainland to Taiwan, see the magnificent mountains and rivers. My trip to Jiuzhaigou, seen from an airplane magnificent mountain scenery below, moved to tears in eyes inside. Also like the Wenchuan earthquake disaster relief after reconstruction, the leadership of Sichuan told me that there are 12 million people, almost equal to half of the population of Taiwan, earthquake homeless. In less than two years, they brought these people settled. Their efforts, diligent, responsible attitude and leadership abilities, so we are all very moved. In Sichuan reconstruction process, Taiwan has undergone severe storms, I see a pupil, Wenchuan able to donate 5 Yuan RMB, write then moving letter. Such mutual understanding and communication, should do more in the future, so that everyone feels that being Chinese is something to be proud of. More importantly, China rich and strong, and everyone can share. In this case, why you and I, that is, "you had me in, I have you in the mud, with each other, love each other". Finally, I have only one sentence, I deeply feel that Taiwan is not Chinese, but because of the land of Taiwan people prefer continental areas often in my mind, not just Taiwan is an unforgettable land, Taiwan compatriots is an unforgettable osteosarcoma of the Chinese nation, the Taiwan people truly as their fellow citizens, more than the land of Taiwan on the continent, heart, really be moved Taiwan folks. Reporter: thank you for accepting our song President. James: thanks!
