Taiwan media: Can the application for replacing the expired "Big Pass" on the mainland launch website be regarded as a release of goodwill? Response from the Taiwan Affairs Office

The Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council held a regular press conference this morning. Chen Binhua, spokesman of the Taiwan Affairs Office, presided over the press conference.

Taiwan's China Times reporter: The mainland recently announced that people in 20 cities, including Beijing, can apply online to replace expired mainland residents' travel permits to Taiwan. Can you understand that the mainland has released goodwill, and as long as Taiwan opens the door for mainland passengers to apply for "Taiwan Entry Permit", mainland passengers can travel?

Chen Binhua: Online application for changing the Mainland residents' travel permit to Taiwan is a practical measure to facilitate the travel of mainland residents. As for mainland residents traveling to Taiwan, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism announced relevant arrangements on April 28. (Editor/Wang Siyu)
