Mainland slams DPP threats to Taiwan officials over exchanges

The Taiwan Affairs Office of China's State Council slammed Taiwan's Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authorities on Wednesday for forbidding any local officials from any people-to-people exchanges with the mainland. The DPP authorities confirmed earlier on Wednesday that they will investigate Rao Ching-ling, head of Taiwan's Taitung County, for possible prosecution after she praised cross-Strait business deals signed last week via a video clip. Rao was blocked by the DPP authorities from traveling to the mainland last week to attend the Straits Forum, the largest cross-Strait people-to-people exchange event.
