 A forum on the 15th anniversary of the enactment of the Anti-Secession Law kicked off at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on Friday.

The law was enacted in 2005, when Taiwan island was ruled by the separatist Democratic Progressive Party and the then Taiwan leader Chen Shui-bian was actively pushing “Taiwan independence.”
