XIAMEN, July 10 (Xinhua) -- Scholars from the Chinese mainland and Taiwan on Sunday discussed ways to promote Minnan culture, or Hokkien culture, in an academic event held at Xiamen University in east China's Fujian Province.
This was the fifth event of the "Cross-Strait Scholars Face-to-Face" program co-hosted by Xiamen University and the Academy of Chinese Culture.
Minnan literally means "southern Fujian Province." Many ancient cultural heritages in this region are shared by people across the Taiwan Strait.
