Will Hong Kong continue to be a vital global business hub?
Letter from Barack Obama to Ma Ying-jeou May 22, 2008
May 22,2008
Dear President Ma:
I sincerely hope the People's Republic of China will respond to the beginning of your presidency in a constructive and forward-leaning way.
It is important for Beijing to demonstrate to the people of Taiwan that the practical and non-confrontational approach that you have taken towards the Mainland can achieve positive results. I hope that there will be progress on issues including development of economic ties, expanding Taiwan's international space, and cross-Straits security, on which you have made proposals that deserve a good-faith response.
