Top NewsAnnouncement of Xi-Ma Meeting Raises ExpectationsAnchorLeaders from the mainland and Taiwan are set to shake hands at a historic meeting in Singapore on Saturday.
The news of the meeting between Xi Jinping and Ma Ying-jeou has raised expectations of improved cross-strait communication.
As CRI's Victor Ning reports, both sides have voiced messages of welcome and anticipation5 for the event.
ReporterThe meeting is scheduled to take place in Singapore on Saturday. Zhang Zhijun, head of the Taiwan Work Office of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, says the event will be the first of its kind in 66 years.
"This is the first meeting of leaders of both sides of the strait since 1949. It will bring communication across the strait to a new level. It will also bring prospect6 for the development of the relations across the strait."Zhang Zhijun is also head of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, China's cabinet.
According to Zhang, Saturday's meeting will feature one session open to the media and another behind closed doors. The two sides will address the press after their private talks. The two leaders will then attend a dinner to conclude the meetings.
Zhang says the two men will meet in their capacity of "leaders of the two sides" of the Taiwan Straits. "The meeting is to be conducted in the capacity of leaders from the two sides of the straits. It means that the two leaders will meet under the title of "leader of the Mainland" and "leader of Taiwan". The two leaders will call each other "Mr.". This is a pragmatic arrangement under the situation of the irresolution7 of cross-strait political differences on the basis of the one-China principle. It is acceptable for both sides."Zhang says the meeting will help consolidate8 the 1992 Consensus9, which was reached in talks between the two sides in 1992 and endorses10 the one-China principle.
In Taiwan, the upcoming event is widely covered by local media. The island's ruling Kuomintang Party has hailed the meeting as "a major watershed11" for mutually beneficial cooperation.
Chief of Taiwan's mainland Affairs Hsia Li-yan comments highly on the meeting.
"The meeting between the leaders of the two sides shows the firm determination to maintain peace and stability across the Straits, and recreate a new milestone12 for development of the cross-Straits relations. The focus of the meeting is to consolidate peace, and reiterate13 to maintain the current peace and stability across the Straits based on the 1992 Consensus."Hsia says experts in Taiwan believe Saturday's events could lead to more regular exchanges between the mainland and Taiwan, such as meeting between heads in charge of cross-strait affairs.
Announcement of the news was particularly welcomed by Taiwan's business community. The Taiwan Stock Exchange's main index opened higher yesterday and continued to climb sharply, reflecting anticipations14 of further improvement in cross-strait ties after Saturday's meeting.

Vietnam Observers: Bilateral15 Economic Cooperation Highlighted in President Xi's Upcoming TripAnchorChinese President Xi Jinping's forthcoming trip this week is set to begin with a stop-over in Vietnam.
CRI's Yu Yang has more on what we can expect from that visit.
ReporterChina has been Vietnam's largest trading partner of Vietnam for the past 11 years.
Last year, Vietnam became China's second largest trading partner inside ASEAN.
A lot of the trade between the two sides is border-trade.
Nguyen Van Binh is the vice3 chair of the People's Committee in the Vietnamese province of Lang Son, which borders Guangxi.
He says they're hoping Xi Jinping's upcoming visit might spur new opportunities.
"We hope President Xi's visit to Vietnam this time can bring Lang Son some new chances as well as enhance bilateral cooperation in imports and exports and deepen the friendship between Lang Son and Guang Xi."The province of Lang Son is considered a hub connecting trade among ASEAN countries moving goods into China.
Vietnam's Deputy Transport Minister Nguyen Hong Truong says trade through the area is going to be improved through the infrastructure16 projects currently being worked on.
"In the transport sector17, there're many projects between Vietnam and China using Official Development Assistance from China such as the improvement of the railway signal system from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City and from Hanoi to Lao Cai. And now we are developing the urban railway Cat Linh-Ha Dong which is the first urban railway using ODA from China. And this urban railway will be operated from 2016."Apart from increased economic cooperation, its expected Xi Jinping's time in Vietnam is also going to include plans to promote cultural exchanges, particularly in the academic world.
Do Tien Sam, former head of Chinese studies with Vietnam's Academy of Social Sciences, says a focus on youth is expected.
"Because young people are the masters of the future for the two countries. So we should have activities regularly, expand our target audience, and the scale of these activates18 to make it a platform for them to communicate with each other."President Xi Jinping is due to spend two days in Vietnam before heading to Singapore.

Singaporean People, Govn't Looking forward to Chinese President's VisitAnchorChinese President Xi Jinping's forthcoming trip to Singapore this week is expected to help increase cooperation between the Chinese and Singaporian sides.
CRI's Li Jianhua has more.
ReporterXi Jinping's time in Singapore, aside from his historic meeting with Taiwan's leader, is also expected to focus on the promotion19 of economic ties between China and Singapore.
China is already Singapore's largest trading partner.
However, many on the Singaporian side are hoping to take things further.
Teo Ser Luck, Singapore's former minister of Trade and Industry, says he expects there's going to be a push by the current governmetn in Singapore to have companies in the city-state look toward China for investment opportunities.
"China is a country that has a great appeal as a destination for investment; therefore we want to drive companies from various fields to invest in China. These include science and technology, information, logistics, aviation, and port administration."Singapore, as a member of the Association of South East Asian Nations, or ASEAN, also has a significant role to play when it comes to regional economic ties.
Halimah Yacob, Singapore's Parliamentary Speaker, says the government of Singapore is keenly aware of the role China plays in Southeast Asia.
"China is a very big country, so obviously the steps that it takes, the contributions that it makes, has got a bearing on not just China itself or the Chinese people, but it has also a bearing on the region, which is in Asia."China's ambassador to Singapore, Chen Xiaodong, says Xi Jinping's forthcoming trip to Singapore is already getting a lot of attention.
"The Singaporean people I have have contact with, including government officials like the president, the prime minister, ministers, business people, media types, intellectuals from think tanks, and average people have been paying a lot of attention to President Xi Jinping's visit. They hope the visit will lift the China-Singapore relationship to a higher level and expand cooperation while marking the 25th anniversary of both countries' diplomatic ties."A series of agreements are expected to be signed during Xi Jinping's time in Singapore.
He's also due to meet with Singapore's top leadership, including Prime Minister Lee Hsien Long and President Tony Tam.

China to Reform State-owned Asset ManagementAnchorChina's central government unveiled a guideline for reforming the management of the country's state-owned assets on Wednesday, vowing20 to establish an organization supervising the use of assets and to set up a firm to operate capital.
CRI's Xie Cheng reports.
ReporterAccording to the guideline, in a break from the current supervision21 body that manages the capital as well as state-owned enterprises (SOEs), the new organ will only supervise the use of capital and return other administrative22 tasks to relevant government departments.
The guideline specified23 plans to establish an investment firm to manage the state's capital and restructure state-owned enterprises.
It is a supporting document for the central government's guideline on advancing SOE reforms released in September.
"The investment firm will work to manage the capital instead of providing specific products or services. The emerging of such a company as an intermediary agent will prevent the government from interfering26 in the concrete operation of enterprises. "The country will also accelerate elimination27 of outdated28 and excessive capacity for SOEs and dispose of inefficient29 assets.
State capital will be removed from some SOEs, while others will be restructured or upgraded on the basis of innovation.
Liu added that the move aims to enhance the role of state-owned assets.
"The ultimate goal is to make state-owned assets more vital and more influential30. It's to make state-owned assets play a better role in economic reconstructing and upgrading, and in fulfilling their social responsibility."Yet many difficulties still lie in the reform of state-owned asset management, and Minister of Finance Lou Jiwei has noted32 that more work is needed to help deal with the difficulties.
"Fundamentally, as long as it's a set of stated-owned assets, it will be associated with the government. Then a series of complicated problems will be brought about. If we want to deal with the problems properly, we will need to leave some leeway, to make progress step by step, to make a balance between management and decentralization, and to encourage exploration."China has about 150,000 SOEs, which hold more than 100 trillion yuan, or about 15.7 trillion U.S dollars, in assets. However, the SOEs have posted an 8.2-percent decline in profits in the first three quarters of this year.
In the process of establishing investment firms and restructuring SOEs, the guideline says some state equity34 will be transferred into the social security funds, so that proceeds from those equities35 can be used to make up shortfalls in pension funds.
For CRI, this is Xie Cheng.
Chinese Top Legislature Ratifying37 AIIB Deal to Encourage Countries to Complete Similar ProcedureChina's top legislature on Wednesday ratified38 the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, or AIIB, agreement at the closing meeting of the bimonthly session of National People's Congress Standing39 Committee.

China's Defense45 Minister Urges Not to Complicate33 South China Sea IssuesChina's Defense Minister Chang Wanquan has urged certain countries not to play up the issue of freedom of navigation in the South China Sea.
Speaking at the ASEAN Defense Ministers' Meeting Plus, Chang said China supports the idea that the ADMM Plus mechanism46 will play a constructive47 role in pushing for the building of an open, tolerant, transparent48 and equal regional security cooperation structure.
Chang stressed that China maintains that countries should jointly50 handle disputes and control risks in order to create a suitable environment for common development and prosperity in the region.

Zhong Shuling with the Association of Small and Medium Enterprises in Taipai says this pledge is encouraging, especially for small business owners on the island.
"Previous polices have been widely criticized for only benefitting large-scale companies, leaving nothing for small and medium-sized firms. These new polices are aimed at giving a priority to smaller operations. It's really a response to the growing voice from the people of Taiwan, and we are grateful for that. "Zhong Shuling has made the comments while in Nanjing to attend the Zijinshan Summit.
This is a gathering51 of entrepreneurs from both the mainland and Taiwan designed to promote cross-strait trade.

Zeng Peiyan heads the mainland-based Council which sponsors the Zijinshan Summit.
"Small and medium-sized companes are critical when it comes to employment. Cooperation across the Strait should focus more on these companies, giving them more opportunities and financial support. Young businessmen are the driving force of cross-straits relations. Both sides should be making it easier for startups to get financial and technological52 support."Lin Huiying from the General Association for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises in Taiwan says entrepreneurs on the island should be looking more toward the mainland as an area to grow and develop.
"We hope Taiwan's small and medium-sized enterprises can take better advantage of the fast development of e-commerce on the mainland when tapping into cross-border trade. Authorities from both sides can establish joint49 projects to promote young business leaders."The Zijinshan Summit itself first began in 2008.
It includes sub-forums on a variety of topics, such as the macro-economy, energy and finance.
This year's session has attracted more than 800 business leaders and leading economists53 from the two sides.
The Silk Road initiative and the amalgamation54 of industries are also a topic of discussion.
The Zijinshan Summit is due to conclude on Thursday.

The campaign to fulfill31 his dying wish has gain lots of attention, with even the stars of the movie, including Mark Hamill, actor of Luke Skywalker, and John Boyega, playing Finn the Stormtrooper, retweeting the hashtag.

Bryan Cranston, Helen Mirren, and Diane Lane Talk 'Trumbo' at Special NY ScreeningBryan Cranston, Helen Mirren and Diane Lane attend a special screening of their new film "Trumbo," Tuesday night at New York's Museum of Modern Art.
The movie tells the life story of Dalton Trumbo from being Hollywood's top screenwriter to being jailed and blacklisted for their political beliefs, and then using words and wit to win two Academy Awards.
Cranston is known for his award winning performances as the Meth-making Walter White in the AMC series, "Breaking Bad," for which he earned an Emmy and Golden Globe.
Regardless of ranking this role among the other notable characters he's played, Cranston feels Trumbo was an important figure for the era.
"I don't know if I've ranked him. Dalton Trumbo wouldn't call himself a hero, but his actions were heroic. He didn't want this fight, but the fight came to him. In a way it was self-defense and he happened - his actions happened to bring an end to a dark period in American history."The movie also stars Oscar-winning actress Helen Mirren playing gossip columnist133 Hedda Hopper, and Diane Lane co-stars as Trumbo's wife.
