April 1st - The State Council Taiwan Affairs Office held a regular press conference on April 1st. A reporter asked: Regarding the State Council Taiwan Affairs Offices statement that it will assist Taiwan in building a high-speed rail around the island and an east-west highway after peaceful reunification, the Mainland Affairs Council stated that related statements focus too much on material interests and have limited appeal to Taiwanese society. What is your comment on this? Spokesperson Zhang Han stated that the sooner reunification is achieved, the more beneficial it will be for Taiwans development and for Taiwanese compatriots to live a better life. The DPP authorities, for their own partisan interests, stubbornly pursue "independence" and refuse reunification, which will only deprive the Taiwanese people of their right to pursue a better life. We hope that the vast majority of Taiwanese compatriots will actively participate in the just cause of promoting the reunification of the motherland and build our common homeland into a better place.April 1st news: Several provinces will promote the large-scale development of hydrogen energy this year and study relevant support policies and measures: ① In 2026, the Fujian Provincial Government Work Report proposed implementing a future industry cultivation and development action, vigorously developing key areas including green hydrogen energy, and exploring diversified technical routes, typical application scenarios, and feasible business models. ② This year, Inner Mongolia will rapidly promote the pilot development of the entire hydrogen energy industry chain, including production, storage, transportation, and utilization, and carry out five tasks: improving innovation capabilities, enhancing the quality and efficiency of wind and solar hydrogen production, expanding green hydrogen demand, infrastructure construction, and strengthening the industry chain. ③ During the 15th Five-Year Plan period, Guangdong will focus on breakthroughs in key core technologies of hydrogen energy such as fuel cells and high-efficiency water electrolyzers, accelerate the cultivation of the entire hydrogen energy industry chain, and actively promote the demonstration application of hydrogen energy in transportation, industry, and energy.

Spokesperson Zhang Han stated that the DPP authorities claim to build a so-called "non-red supply chain" is nothing more than a way to hand over Taiwans industries to others in order to achieve their "relying on foreign powers for independence" scheme.

More and more Taiwanese compatriots have seen the convenience and opportunities brought about by cross-Strait integrated development. This year marks the beginning of the 15th Five-Year Plan.
