Taipei, July 29 (CNA) A total of 402 Taiwanese have been reported missing, questioned or detained in China since the beginning of 2024, with fraud accounting for 62 percent of the detention cases, the Mainland Affairs Council (MAC) said Wednesday.
Of those detained, 134 were linked to fraud cases, 58 to other criminal cases, 23 to religious activities and one to a national security case, Chiu said.
"You cannot keep encouraging our people to travel to China for exchanges while completely disregarding their personal safety," he said.
Liao also noted that Taiwanese visits to China increased from about 2.77 million in 2024 to 3.23 million in 2025 despite the government's warnings.
The figure of 3.23 million indicated that "many [Taiwanese] people still have concerns" about traveling to China.
