In recent years, the island has been calling for the restoration of the "small three links" on the cross-strait. The people on both sides of the strait are the same family, so it is normal for them to be eager to carry out exchanges and exchanges. Moreover, the "small three links" are conducive to promoting cross-strait economic and trade exchanges, but the "small three links" on the cross-strait have been interrupted for more than two years.
Recently, Su Zhenchang, the head of Taiwan’s administrative agency, publicly claimed that the inability to restore the “small three links” across the Taiwan Strait is a “problem” for the mainland, and the Taiwan authorities “adhere to cross-strait intergovernmental consultation.” In this regard, Zhu Fenglian, spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, said that the mainland has no obstacles to the restoration of cross-strait minor three links and can be put into operation at any time.

The three connections between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait refer to commerce, navigation and postal services, and are divided into " big three connections " and "small three connections". The geographical distance between Kinmen Matsu and the mainland Fujian coast is very close, and it is very common for people to trade and intermarry. Therefore, as early as 2001, Fujian and Kinmen Matsu achieved direct passenger flights, which is the so-called "small three links".
During the reign of former Taiwan leader Ma Ying-jeou, he adhered to the 1992 Consensus and the one-China policy. Cross-strait relations quickly eased. Finally, in 2008, direct trade, navigation and postal communication between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait were achieved, and air routes such as Shanghai to Taipei, Beijing to Taipei, and Guangzhou to Taipei were established. The cargo ships on both sides of the Taiwan Strait traveled between Keelung Port and the mainland. These routes were actually not much different from domestic routes.

However, after the outbreak of the new crown epidemic in 2020, the DPP authorities quickly suspended direct sea passenger flights between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait using the pretext of epidemic prevention and control, and have not recovered yet. The Golden Horse area is very close to the mainland, so the Taiwanese people actively demand that the "small three connections" between the mainland and Golden Horse be restored first.
But the guilty DPP dared not respond to the requests of Taiwanese people, and even blamed the mainland. The DPP’s accusations against the mainland are both ignorant and ridiculous. Mainland's kindness to Taiwan has lasted for decades and has never been interrupted. In 1979, the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress issued the " letter to Taiwan compatriots ", proposing that the cross-strait should immediately realize "trade, postal and navigation". The term "three link" appeared in the discussion of cross-strait relations for the first time.
People exchanges between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait
More than 40 years ago, the mainland proposed the concept and requirements of three links. How can we set up obstacles now? The DPP’s accusations are neither logical nor lack basic common sense. Currently, the most active participants in Taiwan are residents of the Jinma area. According to data provided by the Kinmen County Government, there are about 40,000 households in the entire Kinmen County , but they own 20,000 houses in the mainland, and more than 2,000 mainland spouses live in Kinmen. Such flesh-and-blood ties as
should not be blocked by the political manipulation of the DPP. At the same time, Kinmen County Mayor Yang Zhenzhen also said that the epidemic control policies in Taiwan and other regions of the world have been basically relaxed, but the DPP has never allowed the "small three links". Therefore, it accused the DPP authorities of deliberately using the epidemic as an excuse to set obstacles to normal exchanges between people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
Cross-strait people's exchanges
Mainland China has good intentions and Taiwanese people have expectations. Why should the DPP authorities insist on their own initiative and not give the green light to the "small three links" between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait? In fact, the reason is very simple. What are the "Taiwan independence" elements? They are just a group of mobs who are entertaining themselves on the island. They have long fabricated various lies to smear the mainland on the island, and have used Taiwan's closure as an island to mislead many Taiwanese people.
This is the fundamental reason why they were able to enter the island. If the cross-strait three links are restored, a large number of Taiwanese people will enter the mainland to work, live and study. The various lies fabricated by the "Taiwan independence" elements will be self-defeating, and they will naturally lose their living space.
cross-strait people's exchanges
Although the DPP continues to smear the mainland, it is undeniable that Taiwan's economic achievements are inseparable from the advantage of relying on the mainland market, and the mainland is still concessioning to Taiwan, providing a lot of convenience for the Taiwanese people. No matter how the DPP hides it, it cannot change this fact.
Generally speaking, in mutual communication, the first person to close the door is the one who is guilty and lacks confidence. The DPP authorities are very clear that the more cross-strait exchanges and the closer the ties are, the harder the lies of "Taiwan independence" will be maintained, so they will ignore the needs of Taiwanese people and set various obstacles for cross-strait exchanges. But such a trick can ultimately defeat the general trend of the motherland's reunification. The actions of the DPP authorities will only make themselves a laughing stock in the end.
