Taiwanese businessmen said, "It's overdue" and "It's convenient and cheap to go home." , "Of course I am happy", and some people say, "The small three links are a benefit for Taiwanese businessmen."

Taiwanese businessmen affirmed the enthusiasm for the expansion of the three-way mini-link policy. Although it was not immediately reflected in the number of passengers on board, the passenger rate of the first boat in the morning was less than half. However, Yang Lianfang, director of the Kinmen County Harbor Office, said that based on past experience, the passenger ratio of the three-way mini-link is About 60% are Chinese and 40% are Chinese. The current number of passengers is not as good as expected, and the main reason is that the three-way connection between China and passengers has not yet been opened.

The County Port Office stated that considering the needs of folk memorials during the Ching Ming Festival, the Mainland Affairs Council will open the small three-way passenger transfer from March 25, relaxing the "transfer" between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait for Chinese citizens and Chinese spouses, and canceling the original requirement for passengers to register in advance. If a person with Chinese nationality applies for an entry and exit permit in accordance with the "Implementation Measures for the Trial Implementation of Air Navigation between Kinmen, Matsu, Penghu and the Mainland Area", they are not allowed to transfer to Taiwan's main island.

It is convenient and cost-effective to transfer home from Kinmen.

A Taiwanese businessman surnamed Cai from Kaohsiung said, "I still want to see which city in China to go to?"

If he goes to Beijing or Shanghai, he will choose to fly directly.

The Chinese spouse surnamed Wang was very happy and thanked the cross-strait governments for opening up the mini-three links. She disposed of the real estate in Taichung and Kaohsiung and moved to Kinmen to live.

Xu Jiaxing, director of the Kinmen Port Office, said that starting from March 25, the small three-way Jinxia route will increase from one round-trip flight per day to six round-trip flights per day, and the Kinmen-Quanzhou route will increase from two round-trip flights per week to There are 3 round-trip flights per week. The county government will continue to review and respond to the number of passengers, regional medical capacity, the cross-strait epidemic situation, and the needs of all parties, and strive to expand and normalize flights in due course so that more people from both sides of the strait can take them.
