On the afternoon of April 8, Yin Li, Secretary of the Beijing Municipal Party Committee, met with Ma Ying-jeou and his party who were visiting Beijing.

On behalf of the Beijing Municipal CPC Committee, Yin Li welcomed Ma Ying-jeou and his entourage. He said: for a long time, Mr. Ma Ying-jeou adhered to the "1992 consensus" and opposed "Taiwan independence," and made important contributions to promoting the peaceful development of cross-strait relations and deepening cross-strait exchanges. During the Qingming Festival in the past two years, Mr. Ma Ying-jeou led a delegation to the mainland to worship their ancestors, seek roots, and visit, and practiced to carry forward the fine tradition of the Chinese nation to pursue the distant future cautiously and respect their ancestors, fully reflecting the family and national feelings and national righteousness of the Chinese people. We express our deep appreciation and admiration. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: no matter how many disturbances and obstacles we encounter, exchanges and cooperation between compatriots on both sides of the strait cannot be stopped, broken, and cannot be reduced. As the capital, Beijing has profound cultural heritage, active scientific and technological innovation, continuous improvement in the protection of people's livelihood, frequent exchanges at home and abroad, and there is a lot of room for cooperation with Taiwan in science, technology, culture, youth exchanges and so on. We are willing to continue to strengthen exchanges and exchanges with Taiwan, promote the connection of the hearts and minds of the people, enhance people's livelihood and well-being, promote the peaceful development of cross-strait relations, and realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation at an early date. In the future of youth relations between the two sides of the strait, we sincerely hope that the young people on both sides of the strait will unite and love each other, shoulder the important task bravely, and actively participate in the great cause of promoting the reunification of the motherland. Taiwan compatriots, especially young friends, are welcome to often come to Beijing to walk around and communicate as much as relatives. Beijing is willing to provide more development platforms and create a better development environment for Taiwan compatriots to invest in business, work and life.
