Abstract
Chinese civil war broke out in 1949. The Nationalist government moved to Taiwan
(Chiang Kai-shek regime) and proposed "The legitimate government does not coexist
with rebels" and vowed to "retake the mainland China" and also brought up other
slogans as well. They also took Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu as counterattack
base. Therefore, the tensions of cross-strait relations were at daggers drawn. Our
government hasn¡¦t lifted the ban to the mainland China to visit relatives until 1987. In
1992, "Koo-Wang talks" for each session made a significant progress in establishing
cooperation premise of the "1992 consensus". Gradually, the cross-strait relations have
become moderate, but the regime of the mainland China still doesn¡¦t give up forcing
against Taiwan.
Since the Ma government took office in 2008, they have devoted to promoting the
peaceful progress of cross-strait relations and restarting cross-strait economic
cooperation and contact channels for cultural exchanges as well. The government even
signed Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA) with the mainland China
to prevent Taiwan from the Asian market marginalization on June 29, 2010. The new
government is actively reflecting on the impasse between the two sides resulting in
Taiwan's development of the stagnant status quo and brainstorm for a breakthrough in
the Road; on the other hand, continued economic development of the mainland China
will make their influence in the global much dramatically. In particular, Chinese
President Hu Jin-Tao in Beijing proposed six new advocates to Taiwan to commemorate
<Compatriots in Taiwan> in 30th anniversary commemorative meeting on December 31,
2008. The sixth point mentioned that the two sides can explore the establishment of a
military security mechanism of mutual trust. They also called for the two sides to
include the full range of military and other exchange, and thus achieve the signing of a
peace agreement.
Owing to the fact that confidence building measures is the process and catalyst for
signing a peace agreement with two sides, we can accumulate experiences from
cross-strait interaction and establish mutual trust by the confidence building measures.
Furthermore, we can lay the foundation for further engaged in peace talks. Consequently,
in the turning point of history, it goes without saying that the importance of confidence
building measures.
