What changed
A themed exchange on overseas Chinese support for reunification was held on Nov. 7 in Ganzhou, Jiangxi. Representatives from Asia, Europe, North America and Oceania discussed carrying forward the Long March spirit, strengthening international communication and opposing “Taiwan independence.”
The event was jointly hosted by the China Association for Promoting Peaceful National Reunification and its Jiangxi branch. Nearly 40 overseas representatives and officials attended, visiting Long March sites and watching the stage production The First Crossing of the Long March.
Why it matters
The gathering shows how reunification advocacy is being framed as both a historical mission and an international outreach effort. Participants said they would explain the Long March spirit, tell Chinese stories abroad, encourage exchanges between civilizations and strengthen emotional ties among people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
That gives the meeting a clear political purpose, but its practical reach remains undefined. The event identified activities and plans, not individual organizations, formal policy commitments or follow-up funding. Its effect on public opinion or cross-Strait policy is therefore still uncertain.
