Beijing shoppers make their choices among a variety of duty-free fruits from Taiwan in a department store in downtown Beijing August 1, 2005. From Monday, 15 categories of Taiwan-grown fruit are available for mainland consumers at a cheaper price as import tariff is scrapped. Beijing's move to unilaterally implement the tax break, offered by the mainland in early May, will be of great benefits to fruit-growers in Taiwan.
