叶剑英委员长的谈话高屋建瓴,合情合理,大得人心,交通部门全体职工表示热烈拥护。一九七九年元旦全国人大常委会发表《告台湾同胞书》以来,台湾海峡两岸的船员曾经有过多次友好交往。他们在外国港口一起看电影,共同进餐,亲如一家。大陆和台湾航运界的同行、同事们都在为早日实现统一祖国大业努力贡献力量。 The speech made by Chairman Ye Jianying is in a high-spirited building. It is reasonable and popular, and all employees in the transportation department warmly support it. Since the New Year’s Day, when the NPC Standing Committee issued the “Letter to Taiwan Compatriots,” there have been many friendly exchanges between crew members on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. They watch movies in foreign ports together for a meal, like a family. The colleagues in the shipping industry in mainland China and Taiwan and their colleagues are all contributing their efforts to realizing the great cause of reunifying the motherland at an early date.
