The mainland will not change its solemn promise to Taiwan compatriots because of the deliberate provocation and obstruction made by the Taiwan authorities, China's top advisor Jia Qinglin reiterated Wednesday.

"We should further expand cross-Straits exchanges and cooperation and try hard to implement the principle of pinning hope on the Taiwan people," said Jia, chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), while participating in a panel discussion of Taiwan delegation to the NPC.

He called for vigorous implementation of all the policies and measures that had been announced while continuing to serve the Taiwan compatriots for their interests, as well as expansion of cross-Strait economic and cultural exchange and cooperation.

The top advisor expressed the hope that non-governmental organizations of the two sides will launch earlier negotiations on the issue of charted passenger and cargo flights in a bid to achieve substantial progress.

Jia also called for the development of exchange and dialogues with Taiwan parties and organizations that acknowledge the 1992 Consensus and oppose to "Taiwan independence" so as to resume cross-Straits talks on the basis of the consensus.

The panel discussion was held on the sidelines of the ongoing annual session of the National People's Congress, the top legislature, to examine the work report delivered by Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao and the draft outlines of China's 11th Five-Year Plan on the national economic and social development between 2006-2010.
