The special location advantage to Taiwan and the relying advantage of Fuzhou, the "mother city"
Fujian and Taiwan Province Province are separated only by a strip of water, facing each other across the sea. The two places are connected by blood, have the same language and similar customs. The history of economic and cultural exchanges can be traced back to ancient times. More than 80% of Taiwan Province people are from Fujian. With the return of Hongkong and Macao to the motherland, the peaceful reunification of the two sides of the Taiwan Straits has become the urgent desire of all China people, including Taiwan Province compatriots. The strategy of "promoting politics through economy" in mainland China has become the consensus of economic and scientific circles on both sides of the strait. Mawei Port, where Fuzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone is located, is the main port of Fuzhou Port. 1In August 1996, the Ministry of Communications and the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation promulgated the Measures for the Administration of Cross-Strait Shipping in Taiwan Province Province and the Measures for the Administration of Cross-Strait Freight Forwarders in Taiwan Province Province, and listed Fuzhou Port as one of the two pilot ports for direct cross-strait freight transportation in Taiwan Province Province. Since 1997, regular flights have been opened from Mawei Port to Kaohsiung Port. With the approach of the direct "three links" between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, Fuzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone has attracted more and more attention from Taiwanese businessmen and Chinese businessmen at home and abroad because of its special geographical advantages. It can be said that the characteristic of Fuzhou Development Zone lies in the economic and technological cooperation between Fujian and Taiwan, the advantage lies in the use of Taiwanese investment and development, and the potential lies in the development and expansion of cross-strait economic and trade relations and exchanges.
