President Hu congratulates Wu
Hu Jintao, General Secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central
Committee, extended his congratulations Sunday to Wu Poh-hsiung, chairman-elect
of the Chinese Kuomintang Party (KMT) in Taiwan.
"I sincerely hope that the KMT and the CPC will work together for the
well-being of compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Straits, continue to
promote the peaceful and steady development of cross-Straits relations, and join
hands to create a bright future for the Chinese nation," said Hu in a
congratulatory message to the KMT Central Committee and Wu in person.
Wu, an incumbent KMT vice chairman, was elected new chairman of the KMT on
Saturday.
Wu, born in 1939, graduated from Taiwan-based Cheng-kung University, and had
been the secretary-general of KMT's Central Committee, head of Taoyuan County
and mayor of Taipei before he was elected the KMT vice chairman in
2000.
