Former chairman of the Chinese Kuomintang (KMT) Lien Chan will soon visit the Chinese mainland, a mainland spokesperson said Wednesday.
Lien will attend a remembrance ceremony in northwest China's Shaanxi Province, said Ma Xiaoguang, a spokesperson with the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council.
He will also participate in another ceremony in north China's Shanxi Province to honor Emperor Yandi, a legendary ancestor of the Chinese nation, and visit Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region and Zhejiang Province.
Zhang Zhijun, head of Taiwan Work Office of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, will meet with Lien, Ma said.
