Official lauds KMT role in anti-Japan war
Wang Zaixi, vice-minister of Taiwan Affairs Office, yesterday spoke highly of the roles played by Kuomintang (KMT) troops in battling Japanese aggression six decades ago.
He made the remark at a press conference. He urged people from both sides of the Taiwan Straits to learn lessons from the war. "Any political party must take the interests of the country as the top priority," said Wang, calling for unity of political parties and groups from both the mainland and Taiwan in the fight against Taiwan separatism. Commemoration activities for the 60th anniversary of the victory in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression will reach another climax on Saturday. Top Party and State leaders will lay wreaths of flowers at the Monument to the People's Heroes on Tian'anmen Square in central Beijing, with 10,000 people expected to attend. President Hu Jintao will honour war veterans with medals on a separate occasion. A big gathering of more than 6,000 people will also be held on Saturday
morning in the Great Hall of the People, to be followed by a reception in the
evening, said Wang Guoqing, vice-minister of the State Council's Information
Office, also at the press conference.
