TAIPEI: Taiwan’s President Ma Ying-jeou made history Thursday when
he became the island’s first leader to meet with a senior Chinese
official since the end of a civil
war in 1949.
Ma greeted Beijing’s top negotiator on
Taiwanese affairs, Chen Yunlin, at a government guesthouse in
central Taipei amid tight security as thousands of rowdy anti-China
protesters vented their fury outside the venue.
