A local cultural exchange center in Fuzhou City, the capital of Fujian Province, and Mawei Island, in Taiwan Province, will join hands for the second time to host a traditional lantern show in Fuzhou.

The show, to be held during February's Lantern Festival, is one of a series of new developments in the relations between the mainland cultural center and the island.

On Jan. 28, 2001, the two sides signed an agreement on people-to-people economic and cultural exchanges, and since then, 3,766 people in 40 groups from Mawei have visited Fuzhou, while 634 people in eight delegations have visited the island.

Zheng Youguang, director of the center, said that his institution will continue to promote economic and cultural exchanges between the two sides in 2003.
