At least some work must have started and project must be funded and on track

Connecting any part of either country's territory. Based on 2023 borders regardless of future changes. Including Kinmen county, considering Taiwan separate from mainland PRC as of today.

You'll be able to travel above water not flying between the countries

EDIT 8/28/2023: the question is really "there will be a bridge from today's PRC territory to today's Taiwan territory". So Kinmen counts and if PRC takes it over, it's an easy way this could be satisfied.

So a bridge from Xiamen to Kinmen would count?

Sorry, struggling to parse that part.

@JoshuaWilkes @StrayClimb did you see this?

@JoshuaWilkes Yes, thanks for asking. I'll clarify it.

I mean, the question is really "there will be a bridge from today's PRC territory to today's Taiwan territory". So Kinmen counts and if PRC takes it over, it's an easy way this could be satisfied.

@StrayClimb thanks for the reply ~

It's also worth noting that a Xiamen-Kinmen bridge has often been proposed as a China-Taiwan peace project, so there are other routes to YES

@JoshuaWilkes Oh that would really be something! I think of all the mega-bridges this is the easiest one to happen.
