BEIJING, Aug. 19 (Xinhua) — The Fujian-Taiwan Badminton Exchange Tournament kicked off at the Lian Yuan Calligraphy and Painting Institute in Changtai District, Zhangzhou City, Fujian Province, on Monday.
The event, which is expected to last for seven days, has attracted a team of 43 badminton players and coaches from Taipei City and Pingtung County in Taiwan. They are eager to embark on a journey of sports and cultural exchange.
The badminton exchange tournament aims to enhance friendship among young people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait through sports competitions. It also seeks to enable Taiwanese youth to appreciate the profound historical and cultural connections between the two sides.
At the opening ceremony, Chairman and CEO of the Taiwan Strait Peace Development Foundation, Lian Shengwu, expressed his hope that young people from both sides can make friends through sports and deepen their understanding and interaction through such exchanges.
Coach Liu, a badminton coach from Taiwan who was once a professional athlete in Taiwan, believes that the skills in badminton in the Mainland are exquisite and that there are many talented players. This exchange event will provide a platform for young people from both sides to practice their skills and enhance their friendship.
Zhangzhou, which is the main ancestral home of Taiwanese compatriots and a densely populated area for Taiwanese business investment, is connected to Taiwan by the Taiwan Strait. The dietary habits of the two places are very similar, making Coach Liu, who is visiting Zhangzhou for the first time, feel very at home. During the event, the group will also visit the Zhangzhou City Exhibition Hall, the Earth Building (Hakka architecture), and the Traditional Residential Construction Skills Museum, among other places, to jointly inherit traditional Chinese culture and enhance mutual trust and understanding.
Yu Yuxia, the District Mayor of Changtai, expressed that the small badminton rackets not only tie up the big dreams and deep feelings between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait but also symbolize the concept of “one family under the sea.” This exchange event is an important part of cross-strait cultural exchanges and plays a significant role in promoting mutual understanding and friendship among young people on both sides.
The Fujian-Taiwan Badminton Exchange Tournament not only provides a platform for badminton enthusiasts on both sides to exchange and practice their skills but also serves as a bridge to enhance understanding and friendship among young people. Through such sports and cultural exchange activities, the ties between the people of both sides will become closer, and they will jointly inherit and promote the Chinese culture.
