He also praised the role of the ACFTC, as a "trustworthy home for Taiwan compatriots," and as a bridge and liaison linking them with the CPC and the government.

As the peaceful development of cross-Strait ties is entering into a new phase of strengthening and deepening, Yu called on all levels of the ACFTC organizations to carefully study and implement the spirit of the 18th CPC National Congress and to adhere to the theme of the peaceful development of cross-Strait ties, the work of uniting Taiwan compatriots and the one-China principle.

Moreover, he urged the ACFTC to promote political mutual trust between both sides of the Strait and deepen communication among the public on the two sides.

The five-day Taiwan compatriots congress is attended by over 300 Taiwanese representatives from across the country. The congress will review the report of the 8th ACFTC council and an amendment to the ACFTC Constitution. It will also elect a new ACFTC council.

Senior officials, including State Councilor Dai Bingguo and Ling Jihua, head of the United Front Work Department of the CPC Central Committee, were also present at Monday's opening ceremony.

Established in December 1981, the ACFTC consists mainly of Taiwanese compatriots residing in the Chinese mainland. It also maintains contact with Taiwan compatriots on the island and those in Hong Kong, Macao and other overseas regions.
