The 16th Straits Forum is set to open in Fuzhou, Fujian on June 15. Despite continuous criticism from Taiwan's Mainland Affairs Council, labeling the forum as a mainland united front platform and discouraging local government participation, including Yunlin County Magistrate Zhang Lishan and Kuomintang Vice Chairman Lien Chan still traveled to the mainland to attend. The event has sparked debates on both sides of the strait, with various opinions on the nature and implications of the forum's activities.
