Lu: "yes" to cross-party, "no" to party-to-party across the Strait

Meanwhile, former vice president Lu Hsiu-lien (呂秀蓮) of the DPP and legislative speaker Wang Jin-pyng (王金平) of the KMT show how cross-party harmony should be conducted when Wang appeared at a fundraising event for one of Lu's foundations.

Of course it didn't stop them having a little spat about relations between the KMT and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).While Lu said she was in favor of abolishing the party-to-party platform, Wang said it remained essential.

Lu, as always, is forging her idiosyncratic path, which, by refusing to rule out visiting China, is raising hackles within certain sections of the DPP. "I am not against [visiting China], but there's no timetable. I don't have to go." She said at a press conference held to launch her latest project, the "Formosa Post".
