For China, the Montreal invite is a fairly pain-free way to show the mainland’s sincerity toward improving relations with Taiwan at a time when Taiwanese President Ma Ying-jeou’s popularity has plunged. Ma is the leader of the Kuomintang (KMT), the Nationalists who favor closer economic ties with the mainland. The worst-case scenario for Beijing is a return to power of the pro-independence Democratic Progressive Party, so any move to bolster Ma and the KMT and diminish the chances of a DPP government would likely be worthwhile for the Communists. 中國果然出手救小馬了....只是會不會和對台軍事演習，反而讓大家都去支持李登輝一樣變成反效果....
