Taiwan’s transportation department announced on the 26th that the completion of the survey of the first cross-sea bridge, , the Kinmen Bridge, has met the opening standards and is scheduled to be officially opened to traffic on October 30.

Kinmen County Government stated that the Kinmen Bridge will not charge tolls within one year after opening to traffic.

The entire bridge was completed on July 22 this year.

Kinmen Bridge is a path connecting the large and small Kinmen. After opening to traffic, it only takes 10 minutes to get back and forth. Previously, people in Kinmen area had to rely on traffic ships between Kinmen and Kinmen, which was constrained by many factors such as climate, annual ship inspections or emergency events. After the Kinmen Bridge was opened to traffic, people traveling between Kinmen and Kinmen had an all-weather, convenient, safe and fast land transportation channel. In addition, the Kinmen Bridge also provides water, electricity, telecommunications, tap water and other pipelines can be pulled from the Big Kinmen to , Small Kinmen , effectively improving the long-term quality of life of local residents, including improving the overall tourist value of Kinmen area.

Korean Kinmen County Mayor Yang Zhenzhen, a Kuomintang member, happily announced the good news that the bridge was about to open to traffic yesterday evening, which made the local people very excited.

Taiwan media reported that when walking on the Kinmen Bridge, tourists can see that the Big Kinmen on the right, the Small Kinmen on the left, and the Xiamen in front. The scenery on the three sides is different. When Yang Zhenzhen announced the opening of the Kinmen Bridge yesterday, he also announced that he would strive to build the Xiamen-Jin Bridge between Kinmen and Xiamen in the next stage.

The construction of Xiamen Bridge is a common voice of all Kinmen people in the past 20 or 30 years, and it has also been supported by politicians in different parties in Kinmen. Not only that, the blue and green political parties and politicians on the island have also supported the proposal to build the Xiamen-Kin Bridge, and this was even the political views of some DPP politicians during the election.

has withdrawn from the Democratic Progressive Party Kinmen County Former parliamentarian Chen Cangjiang once said that if there is a poll in the construction of Xiamen Bridge, "it must be one-sided, and this is a cross-party consensus."

After all, if Kinmen is powered, vented and bridged with the mainland in the future, it will surely bring infinite vitality to Kinmen and greatly improve the quality of life of Kinmen people.

Former Kinmen County Mayor Chen Fuhai once expressed another significance of the construction of the Xiamen Bridge - "meaning peace and friendship between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait." Chen Fuhai said that Kinmen has always been an important hub for cross-strait interaction. "A bridge with economy and people's livelihood can not only connect Xiamen and Jin's 'small cross-strait', but also build an invisible emotional connection for Taiwan. It should not only be done but also accelerated planning!"

However, over the years, the planning of the Xiamen and Jin Bridge on the island has not made any progress. Most of the time, it is just a prop for speculation and fraudulent votes during the island's election war, and no political party has truly implemented it. Unlike politicians on the island who are good at "changing faces", the mainland's attitude towards building the Xiamen-Jin Bridge is consistent, "the two sides of the Taiwan Strait should be connected." At present, Xiamen-Jin Bridge has been included in the national transportation planning outline.

General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out in the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China that "the blood of the compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait is connected and a family with blood thicker than water. We always respect, care for and benefit our compatriots in Taiwan, continue to be committed to promoting cross-strait economic and cultural exchanges and cooperation, deepening the integration and development of all fields between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, improving systems and policies to enhance the welfare of compatriots in Taiwan, promoting the joint promotion of Chinese culture between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, and promoting the spiritual harmony between compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait."

At 10:00 on August 5, 2018, Fujian officially opened water to Kinmen water supply project, and the vision of "one family on both sides of the Taiwan Straits, drinking one river of water together" became a reality. Learn from the past and know the future. The integrated development of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait is the general trend and the will of the people. The construction of the Xiamen-Jin Bridge will inevitably be the future development direction.
