Quick Glance: New era for Taiwan's border island
- During the late 1950s and 1960s, the outlying islands of Matsu and Kinmen, occupied by the Chinese Nationalists, faced artillery attacks from the Chinese mainland, especially during the Second Taiwan Strait Crisis in 1958.
- The policy of gradually opening up the outlying islands, including Matsu and Kinmen, has been in place for almost 20 years.
- Taiwanese military boats patrol the Matsu Islands on April 9, 2023, the second day of Chinese military drills in response to Taiwan's president meeting the U.S. House speaker in California.
- Matsu residents hold drills from time to time to prepare for China's attacks, and the military conducts regular patrols around the islands, but the sense of urgency and tension has long disappeared.
