New Party delegation in Nanjing

BEIJING: The 30-member delegation of the New Party in Taiwan, headed by Chairman Yok Mu-ming, arrived in Nanjing, capital city of Jiangsu Province, on Thursday for the second leg of its eight-day mainland visit. Mr. Yok said the delegation would pay tribute at the Mausoleum of Sun Yat-sen, forerunner of the Chinese democratic revolution, and offer condolences at the Memorial Hall of the Victims in the Nanjing Massacre, an atrocity committed by Japanese invading troops in World War II. The delegation was met at the airport by secretary-general of the Jiangsu provincial committee of the Communist Party of China Zhao Shaolin. It arrived in Guangzhou on Wednesday afternoon to begin the four-city mainland trip under the theme of commemorating the 60th anniversary of China's victory in the resistance war against Japanese aggression during World War II. It will also visit Dalian and Beijing. — Xinhua
