A senior mainland official yesterday urged Taiwan people to fight "Taiwan independence" activities as hard as they fought the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression.

According to Wang Zaixi, vice-minister of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, pro-independence forces are the common enemy of people on both sides of the Taiwan Straits.

He made the call yesterday afternoon at a forum held by the Beijing-based Cross-Straits Relations Research Centre and visiting New Party delegation from Taiwan.

The 30-member opposition delegation headed by party chairman Yok Mu-ming arrived in Beijing on Sunday after touring Guangzhou, Nanjing and Dalian. It started the eight-day "journey of the Chinese nation" on Wednesday to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1937-1945).

"Escalating secessionist activities pose the biggest and most destructive threat to peace and stability in the Taiwan Straits," Wang said.

"Only by opposing and curbing Taiwan's secession from China can we safeguard cross-Straits peace and stability."
