Li said he was happy to receive Yok and his delegation in Nanjing at this
special moment when Chinese people are commemorating the 60th anniversary of
China's victory in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.
Li said he hoped people across the Straits, especially the younger
generation, would not forget history and work for world peace and the prosperity
of China.
Before leaving Guangzhou, Yok and his delegation paid homage at the
Huanghuagang 72 Martyrs' Tombs yesterday morning.
The mausoleum was built in memory of the 72 martyrs of the abortive Guangzhou
Uprising, launched in 1911 by Sun's close aid Huang Xing.
Those buried at the cemetery include famous revolutionary martyrs Pan Dawei,
Deng Zhongyuan, Yang Xianyi, Feng Ru and Shi Jianru.
"By paying tribute to the martyrs, we are here to pursue a noble spirit,"
said Yok.
"We hope people on both sides will treasure this opportunity today, be united
and work together to seek the prosperity of the Chinese nation."
