Lai reiterates 'status quo' at China-based Taiwanese event
President Lai Ching-te is reiterating his commitment to "maintaining the
status quo" in cross-strait relations.

Speaking at a Lunar New Year event in Taichung attended by China-based

to safeguarding national security and preserving cross-strait stability and

each other.

bondage, restriction of movement, excessive overtime and retention of
identity documents.
