Establishment of Commemoration Day of Taiwan's Restoration
The 18th session of the Standing Committee of the 14th National People's Congress (NPC) voted to establish Commemoration Day of Taiwan's Restoration.
On October 25, 1945, following the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, Taiwan and the Penghu Islands were restored to China's sovereign administration.
The restoration and return of Taiwan to the motherland marked the victory of the Chinese nation's 14-year-long War of Resistance, and represented the triumph of the Taiwan compatriots' 50-year struggle against Japan's occupation and colonial rule.
Taiwan's restoration is a solemn moment when the Chinese government recovered its lost territory and resumed sovereignty over the island.
