Chinese mainland will maintain appropriate preferential policies to Taiwan, said Chinese Premier Li Keqiang on Sunday.

"The mainland will continue to protect the legitimate rights and interests of the Taiwan-funded enterprises and Taiwan business people on the mainland, and continue to provide appropriate preferential policies to them," he said.
