Y. Cheung, Jae Ho Chung, Chae-ho Chŏng, Zhimin Lin, Provincial Strategies of Economic Reform in Post-Mao China: Leadership, Politics, and Implementation, Published by M.E. Sharpe, 1997, ISBN 0-7656-0147-8, ISBN 978-0-7656-0147-6〕〔http://www.tp.org.tw/eletter/story.htm?id=20011209〕 The proposal was also supported by the central government in order to facilitate political and economic relationships across the Taiwan Straits.〔http://www.fjkjt.gov.cn/e-kjt/html/Foreign/2007/0917/305.shtml〕 The economic zone will help Fujian catch up to Taiwan's economic development. The economic zone would "promote the better use of resources of the economic belt in East China and enhance its overall economic strength," Wang Xiaojing, the then executive vice-governor of Fujian in 2005.〔http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/english/doc/2005-03/07/content_422399.htm〕 In 2008, Mainland China through its Association for Relations Across the Taiwan Straits and Taiwan via Straits Exchange Foundation agreed on an Economic Pact which opened direct transport links for the first time since the end of the Chinese civil war. This allowed regular commercial flights, direct shipping between Taiwan and Chinese mainland ports and postal services. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Western Taiwan Straits Economic Zone」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
