Taiwan Raises Travel Alert to Mainland China to Orange

Reported 9 months ago

The Mainland Affairs Council of Taiwan announced an increase in the travel alert to Mainland China, Hong Kong, and Macau to 'orange,' prompting criticism from opposition party lawmakers who claim the escalating tensions are harming cross-strait relations and turning the tourism industry into a 'disastrous business.' They urge the government to come up with solutions to the stalemate. The Nationalist Party emphasizes the importance of improving cross-strait relations for the well-being of both peoples and criticizes the government's approach as counterproductive. The Democratic Progressive Party lawmakers support the travel alert as necessary caution given recent incidents involving Taiwanese in China and new punitive measures announced by the Chinese government against pro-independence activities.
