KMT-CCP interactions

Tomorrow, honorary KMT chairman Lien Chan (連戰) will be attending the third Cross-strait Fair for Economy and Trade, to be held in Beijing. Today, he arrived in the city.

What I found interesting is the near total lack of interest in this particular trip of Lien's from ... anybody.

There was only one rather short article on it in the China Times, nothing in the United Daily News, and even only one story on the Taiwan section of the People's Daily website. The Liberty Times had an article too.

This is much, much less hoopla than was surrounding the first Cross-strait Fair for Economy and Trade. I wonder if it'll pick up any tomorrow after Lien Chan makes some speech.
