7. SOUNDBITE: (Mandarin), Chen Yongmao, Head of Organising Committee of the first Xiamen-Kinmen Crossing Event:
We have been planning to have this straits crossing event for years, and many swimmers and relevant people in both straits have had this kind of idea for a long time. Some people actually had swum across the straits secretly sixty years ago. Sixty years has passed already, we hope this kind of mass swim hosted by the governments can help the normalisation of the cross-straits relations and promote the peace and development between the two sides.

STORYLINE:
One hundred swimmers from both the Chinese mainland and Taiwan swam across the straits between Xiamen, in eastern China's Fujian province, and Taiwan's Kinmen on Saturday morning, in a sign of improved across-straits relations between the two sides.
The swimmers, 50 from the mainland and 50 from Taiwan, started the mass swim at 10:30 am local time (0230 GMT) from one of Xiamen's Yefengzhai beaches and swum to Shuangkou village in Kinmen, Taiwan.
The two communities are about six kilometres apart and most of the swimmers took around two hours to complete the journey.
The swim is co-hosted by the governments of Xiamen and Kinmen.
Organisers hope the mass swim will strengthen connections between the two sides.
All the participants were selected from thousands of applicants who took part in several rounds of competition both in China and Taiwan.
Those who cover the distance within three hours will receive an honorary certificate from the organiser.
Many swimmers over 50-years-old also participated in the swim.
China and Taiwan split amid civil war in 1949.
Beijing continues to claim the self-governing island as part of its territory, and has been using a blend of threats and diplomacy to try to bring Taiwan back into its fold.
Xiamen is China's closest place to Taiwan and there used to be regular shelling between the two sides in 1950s.
Relations between China and Taiwan have been improved since Ma Ying-jeou, a politician from Taiwan's Beijing-friendly Kuomintang party, assumed the island's presidency in May 2008.
The swim is being seen as the latest in a series of events that have improved cross-Straits ties.
