United State Congress Washington, D.C. 20510 December 4, 2006 Dear Honorable U.S. Senator/House Representative: It is a great pleasure to write a letter to you. On behalf of the Chinese-American community and members of the National Association for China's Peaceful Unification (NACPU), I am writing this letter to expresses our warmest season's greeting to you. We also gladly present you a holiday gift book entitled "One Country, Two Systems" in Taiwan, written originally in Chinese by Dr. Hsing Chi, and now translated into English by Dr. Sheng-Wei Wang. Both of them were born and educated in Taiwan and later earned their advanced degrees in the U.S. On November 6 of this year, they proudly presented this book at the new book ceremony in the Library of Congress. The book not only represents some Taiwanese people's wish of reuniting with Chinese mainland, but also points out that 1) many Taiwanese people do not fully understand the concept of "one country, two systems" due to the negative political propaganda of the current Taiwan authorities and separatists; 2) "one country, two systems" is the best way to maintain Taiwanese and mainland Chinese people's current political systems and life style; and 3) "one country, two systems" can ensure the safety of the Taiwan Strait. The Taiwan issue is the core challenge of the Sino-U.S. relations; only after it is resolved can the two countries truly develop a normal and cooperative relationship. America is a great country and has many great politicians and citizens who love world peace. I, therefore, think that Americans could understand the deep pain and sorrow that many Chinese people have suffered due to the Chinese Civil War and the subsequent 57-year separation of the Chinese mainland and Taiwan. I, hereby, sincerely wish that after reading this book, you would be willing to help China's reunification, continuing to support the "one China" policy, and not interfering with Chinese people's reunification effort. We would be very happy to accept an appointment with you to discuss further the Taiwan issue and Sino-U.S. relations, if you would be interested. Our contact information is listed below. In closing, we wish you a Merry-Christmas and a great success in the coming year. Respectfully yours, Hunter Huang President National Association for China's Peaceful Unification (NACPU) |
