At the opening ceremony, Liu Chenggong, on behalf of DHU, warmly welcomed the young students from Shanghai and Taiwan who participated in this leadership camp. He pointed out that people on both sides of the Taiwan Straits share the bond of kinship, speak the same language and belong to the same culture. As the future masters of the nation, youths on both sides of the strait should communicate and connect with each other deeply, work hard together, dare to carry responsibilities, and join hands to improve people’s wellbeing and create a bright future of China. The Shanghai - Taiwan Youth Elite Leadership Camp is committed to providing more opportunities for the growth of young people on both sides of the Taiwan Straits. It is also hoped that the young students from Shanghai and Taiwan could find more like-minded friends and partners through the learning and communicating with each other at the Leadership Camp.
