Fujian provides teaching opportunities to professors from Taiwan
In recent years, more and more teachers from Taiwan have found work in Fujian province. There are currently around 680 people from Taiwan working as teachers in Fujian, according to the education department of the province.
"I am no different from my colleagues. I have a housing fund, social security account, and can lead or participate in national and provincial research projects," said Kao Chia-chun, head of the internal medicine teaching and research department at Fujian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Kao joined the university after he got his PhD in 2009.
Benefiting from the State Council's policies to encourage Fujian to pioneer exchanges and cooperation with Taiwan, he became one of the first Taiwanese compatriots to be employed by a mainland institution.
"I truly feel the broad platform offered by our motherland," said Kao. Starting as a lecturer, he has since been promoted to associate professor.
Kao has devoted himself to educating students and treating patients, as well as promoting cross-Strait health service exchanges. The course he teaches on the Huangdi Neijing, an ancient text on traditional Chinese medicine, is popular among students.
