BEIJING -- A mainland delegation left Beijing Wednesday morning for a new round of cross-Strait talks in Taipei.
The negotiators, headed by Chen Yunlin, president of the mainland-based Association for Relations Across the Taiwan Straits (ARATS), will meet with their Taiwan counterparts led by Chiang Pin-kung, chairman of the Taiwan-based Straits Exchange Foundation (SEF), on Thursday.
The two sides are expected to discuss and endorse an investment protection agreement and an agreement on customs cooperation, according to a press release issued by the Taiwan Work Office of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee earlier this month.
