Li Tzeng-cheng, founder of the Kinmen Public Affairs Research Center, says that students who frequently went back and forth between Taiwan and Kinmen recall the situation as if it were yesterday: "Students would flock to Taiwan every summer to take the college entrance exams and often reported to the test grounds sick to their stomachs with their heads still spinning."
金門公共事務研究中心發起人李增城表示，往來台、金頻繁的學子均記憶猶新，「每年暑假成群結伴到台灣考大學，往往還在暈船暈得昏頭轉腦，就得上考場。」
