The administrative agency of the DPP authorities announced that the entry quarantine will be changed to "0+7" from October 13. The "Tourism Bureau" of the transportation authority also cooperated to lift the ban on the ban, but excluded mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau. People in Taiwan’s tourism industry said bluntly that anyone with a discerning eye can tell that it is another political factor. In addition, the "Miscellaneous Three Links" have not yet opened the opening timetable, nor have they opened Hong Kong and Macao. The "opposition" Democratic representatives called on the DPP authorities to treat everyone equally and open them simultaneously, and should not be treated differently because of ideological .

"Tourism Bureau" announced that it will open the travel industry to travel abroad and receive travel groups to Taiwan from October 13. However, for mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau, groups to travel and receive tourist groups to Taiwan will continue to be suspended.

Travel industry insiders analyzed that since the political party rotation in 2016, cross-strait relations have turned cold, mainland tourism groups have decreased significantly, and "free travel" in 2019 has suspended its visit to Taiwan. After the outbreak of the new crown pneumonia epidemic in 2020, cross-strait tourism exchanges have been directly interrupted. During the more than two years of epidemic, cross-strait relations have not improved. Instead, they are in the most tense moment because of the incidents of US House Speaker Pelosi's outrage. Now that the lifting of the "ban on the group" is left only to the mainland and Hong Kong and Macao, it is obviously a political consideration.

This person pointed out that people in the tourism industry are very clear that people from mainland China and Hong Kong and Macao are not determined by the "Tourism Bureau" to come to Taiwan, but the Mainland Affairs Council is led by the Mainland Affairs Council. Taiwan can express goodwill and directly lift the ban on mainland China and Hong Kong and Macao. There will be a day to recover in the future, but it has not chosen to do so.

As for the "small three links", the Kuomintang Kinmen "legislator" Chen Yuzhen criticized that the "small three links" are also part of the Taiwan portal and should be opened simultaneously and there should be no differential treatment. After more than two years of ban, it has caused many inconveniences for Kinmen residents to visit relatives in the mainland. The DPP authorities should not stick to ideology and open up the "small three links" as soon as possible.

Kuomintang Mazu "legislator" Chen Xuesheng said that the head of the administrative agency Su Zhenchang said that the suspension of the "small three links" was an epidemic problem, but in fact it has become a political problem. If the "small three links" can be opened, the two sides of the Taiwan Strait can start dialogue.

Regarding related matters, Zhu Fenglian, spokesperson of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, also pointed out at a press conference on the 28th that we have always believed that under the premise of doing a good job in epidemic prevention and control, cross-strait personnel exchanges and exchanges should return to normal, which is the common expectation of the people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. In the recently announced entry control measures by Taiwan, many restrictions are still set for personnel in mainland China and Hong Kong and Macao. This is obviously a double standard, and it is continuing to obstruct mainland people from going to Taiwan.

Zhu Fenglian also said that the "Mini Santong" is the most important and convenient channel for exchanges between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, especially the people in Fujian and Taiwan. Residents in both places hope to restore the "Miscellaneous Three Links" as soon as possible. We hope that the DPP authorities will do more things that are conducive to cross-strait exchanges and cooperation, rather than trying every means to obstruct, restrict and engage in political operations.
