China's Comprehensive Plan for Taiwan Integration and Economic Development Revealed

China has unveiled a plan to deepen integration between the coastal province of Fujian and Taiwan, while simultaneously sending warships around the self-governing island. The plan aims to make Fujian a "demonstration zone" for integrated development with Taiwan and the "first home" for Taiwanese residents and businesses in China. This comes as China continues to increase military pressure on Taiwan, with a Chinese aircraft carrier and warships spotted near the island. The integration plan has been met with skepticism in Taiwan, with a lawmaker calling it "ridiculous." The directive also focuses on integrating Taiwan's outlying islands of Kinmen and Matsu with the mainland.
