"The meeting is successful to both sides. It is a
win-win communication, which reflects a breakthrough in the mainland policy
towards Taiwan," said Suen, who has been a member of the KMT for about 62 years.
The Taiwan-based "Central Daily News" said in its editorial that it was
obvious both parties were pursuing a peaceful development of cross-Straits
relations. Based on the principles set forth in the meeting, the end of
cross-Straits hostility, establishment of a mechanism of military mutual trust
and a peace accord between the two sides across the Taiwan Straits could be
realized smoothly.

set the "peaceful tone" for the development of cross- Straits relations.

said the meeting provided an opportunity for both parties to exchange views and
convey to each other the expectations of people on both sides.
"It facilitates communications between people on both
sides of the Straits," said Hu.
