Publishers in East China's Fujian Province opened a book fair Friday at
Jinmen Islands (also known as Quemoy islands), a Taiwan-controlled region in the
Straits.
This was the first book fair organized a mainland region in Taiwan, said Xie
Shengxin, deputy general manager of the Fujian Provincial Foreign Language Book
Store.
Book publishers on both sides of the Taiwan Straits including the
Fujian-Taiwan Book Company and Fujian Provincial Foreign Language Book Store
attended the fair.
On sale were more than 30,000 books from the Chinese mainland and 3,000 kinds
of books from Taiwan in the fields of literature, arts, history, social sciences
and technology.
Xie said the fair will be an important experiment on promoting
non-governmental exchanges between the two sides and developing the Chinese
culture.
