Taipei, June 4 (CNA) China should treasure those among its people who seek democracy and earn more respect from the world community by allowing its people to enjoy more political rights, President Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) said on the 27th anniversary of the bloody crackdown on pro-democracy demonstrators in Beijing.
In a Facebook post Saturday, Tsai said that she did not mean to criticize China's political system "but rather I am willing, with heartfelt sincerity, to share Taiwan's experience in becoming a democracy."
She recognized China's economic progress and the improvement in the Chinese people's quality of life, which she attributed to the efforts made by "the ruling party on the other side of the Taiwan Strait."
