From a world-view standpoint, just the fact that this is happening between the two"countries" is significant, IMO.

Taiwan could be starting to view China as a better long-term ally than the USA - do you suppose.......?


NANJING/TAIPEI, Feb. 11 (Xinhua) -- Chiefs of cross-Strait affairs from the Chinese mainland and Taiwan met formally for the first time since 1949 on Tuesday afternoon.

Zhang Zhijun, head of the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office (SCTAO), held a formal meeting with Wang Yu-chi, Taiwan's mainland affairs chief, who arrived in Nanjing, capital of east China's Jiangsu Province, on Tuesday morning as part of a four-day visit.

At their meeting, the two agreed to open a regular communication channel between their departments, the result of deepening mutual political trust on the basis of the 1992 consensus, said Zhang.

"I believe, with this arrangement, we will improve exchanges, understanding and mutual trust, and better handle outstanding problems in cross-Strait exchanges," he said.
