From the Taipei Times:
Taiwanese have been given the green light to take China’s judicial exam to practice law in China, China’s state media reported yesterday.
Ding Lu (丁露), director of China’s National Judicial Examination Center, told Xinhua news agency that many Taiwanese want to take the exam to obtain qualifications to practice law in China.
The move would help promote cross-strait exchanges and provide better legal services for “compatriots” living in both areas, Ding said.
Examination Yuan President Yao Chia-wen (姚嘉文) yesterday expressed approval at the news. He said Taiwan’s judiciary is far more advanced than China’s, in terms of both structure and concepts.
