Image description

A worker on Taiwan's frontier island of Kinmen puts a new coat of paint on a monument shaped like an artillery shell on December 29, 2000, in a campaign to beautify the island ahead of direct travel links with mainland China. The monument commemorates the 1958 air and artillery battle between Taiwan troops in Kinmen and Communist forces in the nearby province of Fujian on mainland China. On January 2, residents of the Taiwan-held island of Quemoy and Matsu will be able to travel directly to port cities in Fujian, ending a decades-old ban on direct travel between the two political rivals.
