Overseas Chinese have set up anti-secession and pro-unification organizations in more than 100 countries and regions to promote cross-Straits ties between the Chinese mainland and Taiwan, said Qiu Yuanping, director of Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the State Council, on Sunday.
The office has designated 2014 as the Year of Building Harmonious Overseas Chinese Community.
Meanwhile, the office will offer aid to establish Chinese-aid center in about 60 cities or regions abroad to provide necessary help and care to more than 100,000 local overseas Chinese.
