Taiwan visits down 14.4%
Print Edition
SOME 3.61 million Chinese mainland residents visited Taiwan last year, an annual decrease of 800,000, a mainland spokesman said yesterday.
The number of mainland tourists to Taiwan had slipped 14.4 percent, the first drop in eight years, State Council Taiwan Affairs Office spokesman Ma Xiaoguang told a press conference.
By contrast, Ma said that 5.73 million people from Taiwan had visited the mainland, an annual increase of 4.2 percent.
Ma said changes in Taiwan’s situation had resulted in different trends. Mainland cross-Strait policies had become more attractive to Taiwan residents, whereas changes in Taiwan’s policies had negative effects, making mainland tourists less willing to visit.
