#眾志國際連結 #國際戰線

Reuters and Bloomberg just confimed that the US is likely to sanction China if it approves the hugely controversial bill that damages HK's autonomy. When Beijing insists on ignoring international responses and breaching international norms and rules, it is time for China to face the grave consequences and international backlashes for its irresponsible act of scraping an UN-filed Joint Declaration.

In fact, the world has already expressed concern over the evil and ill-defined national security law that will kill democratic movements in HK and harm global business interest in the city. But China keeps dismissing all doubts from world leaders, business sectors and even bar associations. This law is even eviler than the extradition bill last year. China’s poor human rights records have already proved that it will undeniably use the law to crush HK’s civil society and dissents.

For a long time, Hong Kong has been treated by Beijing as a white glove port for importing sensitive strategic commodities. Once the law is implemented, a secret police agency and a CCP-led China’s court will be imposed upon this global business centre. At that time, HK will fall into Beijing’s direct rule, and de facto becomes another city of China. Hence, all special treatments granted to HK need to be subject to reconsideration.

In fact, countries starts to realize the changing role of Hong Kong in a bigger picture of China’s global strategy. For example, Israel’s security officials just rejected a bid from CK Hutchison Holdings for the potential security risks of Chinese involvement in a plant construction in the disguise of "HK companies”.

To safeguard the city’s freedoms and urge China to stop further misconduct, world leaders, not only the US, should consider sanctions on China as the only effective strategic option to send a warning signal to Beijing. The sanctions should not only be restricted to personal sanctions like travel bans and asset freezes (since China won’t really realize the severity), but also partial sanctions on pro-CCP companies and dual-use technology.

Democratic values and the virtue to respect treaties are the foundation of democracies. If China’s flagrant breach of Joint Declaration, a legally binding international treaty at the United Nations, is tolerated, it will set a bad precedent to all other treaties and agreements alike.

儘管拉人封艇，取締眾志不再是空談，留一口氣，點一盞燈，拜托大家幫忙延續國際戰線血脈：https://bit.ly/DemosistoBackup（是次籌募以美金結算）

由於我自己一直大聲疾呼，台灣需要英文媒體，自己一直用中文在舒適圈發文好像也說不過去，於是用英文錄了一段，為什麼台灣人要募資在紐約時報登廣告的影片。

很多人對於募資案，最大的疑慮就是「現在根本沒人看報紙，為什麼不花錢在社群網站投放廣告就好？」之前我說過了，這是行銷思維跟品牌打造思維的不同，而且現在，我也來盡自己的社群力量，希望用英文，在社群媒體上，讓更多不懂中文的人，聽到台灣的聲音。

撇開幕資案不說，當我提起想用英文拍片的時候，我們團隊的夥伴都大表支持，並且在最快時間幫我生出了影片，是我覺得真的很感動的地方。另外，由於我NG了80000萬次，NG到即使瀏海從頭分岔到尾，也不想重新錄，所以我衷心佩服，雅琴姊的勇氣跟毅力，請讓我下跪一拜。

以下為我的影片內容全文：

Hello everybody, My name is Joyce, and I am from Taiwan
大家好我是琬柔 我來自台灣。

For those of you who don’t already know, Today’s New York Times has a full page ad that features Taiwan.
可能很多人不知道，4月14日的紐約時報有一面關於台灣的全版廣告。

For me, I really hope that it’s an effective ad with the message that Taiwan can and is trying it’s best to help with the global COVID-19 pandemic.
我希望這份廣告能有效傳遞，台灣能、而且竭盡所能地想要跟世界對抗新型冠狀病毒疫情的訊息。

And if you are wondering about the background for why it’s here, let me walk you through it.
如果你好奇這整件事情的來龍去脈，讓我來解釋給你聽。

So we all know that Taiwan has been excluded from international organizations for years. In normal times, this is big missed opportunity since Taiwan has a lot to offer the international community. But this has been really bad during the coronavirus outbreak since Taiwan has been one of the most effective countries in containing the COVID-19 cases through early and aggressive quarantine and contact tracing policies.

我們都知道台灣長年被排除在國際組織之外。如果是太平盛世，大家錯失的是一個讓台灣幫助國際的機會，但是這在疫情延燒全球之際，可能會對局勢帶來負面影響，
因為台灣透過了迅速及嚴格的政策，為疫情超前佈署，成為全球少數能有效控制新冠疫情的國家之一。

In fact Taiwan was warning of the potential for a global pandemic emerging from China as early as last December. And while Taiwan has been eager to offer helping hand to the world during this time of crisis and share best practices, it has been shut out of the discussions at the WHO.
事實上 台灣早在去年12月就曾經警告過這個病毒恐將在全球造成大流行，就在台灣渴望對國際做出貢獻的時候，台灣被排除在WHO的各項討論之外。

So for me, I see this ad as a message to the world that Taiwan is here to help. Let me read some parts of it for you。
對我來說 我覺得這個廣告傳遞的訊息是，台灣在這裡想要幫忙。讓我分享其中幾段文字。

“You are not alone. Taiwan is with you.”
「你不是孤單的。台灣也跟你站在同一陣線。」

“In the past weeks, Taiwan has provided more than 16 million medical masks to support medical professionals around the world and has worked together with the US and the EU on the most advanced rapid tests and vaccines for COVID-19.”
「在過去幾周裡，台灣捐贈了1600萬個口罩支援世界各地的醫療人員，我們也與美國跟歐盟一起合作，開發最先進的快篩與疫苗。」

“Who can isolate Taiwan? No one.”
「誰能孤立台灣？沒有人。」

“Because we are here to help.”
「因為我們是來提供幫忙的。」

I know there has been news coverage of some controversy with the WHO, but I can tell you that the goal of this AD is not to pick a fight with the WHO. Because Taiwan is trying its best to stop the spread of COVID-19 and is truly looking to help
我知道過去有不少WHO的爭議新聞報導但我能告訴你們，這個廣告的目的不是要跟WHO吵架，因為台灣正在竭盡所能地阻止疫情擴散，並且真心想幫忙。

Lastly, For those of you who can’t see the small print, the ad was crowdfunded by the contributions of over 25,000 average Taiwanese people who just want to voice that Taiwan is here to help. In fact, a good portion of the proceeds from the crowdfunding campaign will be donated to fight against COVID-19 internationally. 如果你們看不到這行小字，這個廣告的群眾募資計畫，代表超過2萬5000個台灣民眾的聲音，他們想告訴世界「台灣能幫上忙」。事實上，部分募得的款項，會被捐助於國際間對抗疫情之用。

I think It’s really a beautiful message and I’m glad I can share this with you. And of course I want you guys to know that Taiwan can help and Taiwan is helping. Thank you for your listening.
對我來說這真的是一段佳話，我很高興能在這裡跟你們分享，而且我也希望你們知道，台灣不僅能幫忙，也已經在貢獻一己之力，謝謝你們聆聽。

世界卫生组织 Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus #Taiwancanhelp #Taiwanishelping

(中文在下面, switching it up, partly cos my translation is bad lol) Last year I visited this beautiful 1930's mansion in central Taiwan. I love the blend of eastern and western design and the simple modernism. I was surprised to see almost all the original windows and beds were there. I had begun to see posts suggesting the mansion may be demolished so decided to get down there quickly. I will likely turn it into a drawing along with two other large 1930's buildings nearby. It'd be hard to do that without a visit! At the moment it seems it's a provisional monument. However with what happened to Tianwaitian Theater that is no guarantee of protection. I'm a little torn over whether to give location. On the one hand I want people to know about this place and see why it should be protected, and perhaps write about it to the Taichung gov. On the other hand a huge influx of people could cause a number of problems. I think I will leave the location off until I know the cultural bureaus' decision. For now enjoy the pictures!

(對不起翻譯有錯, 我很快寫過了) 去年我在台灣中部這座漂亮的房子去看看. 差不多1935年蓋了. 我在臉書看到這個房子也許會破壞, 所以我快快去. 在未來我想畫這個房子跟其他很近老建築. 我很驚訝地看到原來的窗戶和床. 以前我告訴大家這是在哪裡, 我要等待文化局的決定, 對不起 (there are pros and cons to giving location but for now I think it's not responsible). 覺得也許好多人去, 就有問題. (一個外國人可以自己找到, 覺得台灣人也可能哈哈). 希望不會天外天劇場一樣. 現在請.

有些人會說：「如果朝鮮不是獨裁國家的話，為什麼不給外國旅客自由行呢？為什麼大部分電腦都沒連上境外的互聯網呢？」我希望那些人從不同的角度來思考這些問題。二戰期間的同盟國會開放自己的國家給德國、意大利和日本觀光客自由行嗎？別忘了，朝鮮戰爭只有停火，沒有停戰。

假如互聯網是在 1930 年代的德國發明的，而非 20 世紀下半葉的美國，而德國情報機構能暗中監督和控制一切連上該網路的任何設備（正如斯諾登透露美國國安局所做的那樣），同盟國會讓一般老百姓連上同個互聯網嗎？還是他們會跟朝鮮一樣建設自己的網路？

朝鮮是個小國家。雖然它從 1953 年一直呼籲正式停戰，但它從 1950 年到現在一直與大部分西方國家處於戰爭狀態。只要戰爭狀態不變，這些政策不是「反自由」的，而是任何理性的政府（無論是資本主義國家還是社會主義國家）會施行的防禦性措施。



誰是朋友？誰是敵人？
Who are our friends? Who are our enemies?

我們能否 追究這個問題而不自欺欺人
Can we look into this question without lying to ourselves?

誰的盟友？誰的利潤？
Whose allies? Whose profits?

是誰激於義憤而爭鬥和犧牲
Whose struggle and sacrifice are stirred by righteous indignation?


1.
饒舌的激進份子 被說是憤世
The radical rapper is said to be cynical.

我只想引人深思 和去偽存實
I just want to get people to think, cast aside falsities, and retain the truths,

因為從小到大有太多虛偽人士
because througout our lives, too many hypocrites

灌輸錯誤認識 使人愚昧無知
have instilled false understandings, causing us to ignorantly

地無視 顯而易見 的壓迫和暴行
disregard the clearly visible oppression and atrocities,

使人固執己見 而失去批判思考力
causing us to stubbornly cling to our own opinions and lose our ability to think critically.

一旦遇到陌生的意見 認知就失調
When we encounter unfamiliar opinions, we experience cognitive dissonance.

變本加厲地延伸原本的錯誤視角
Doubling down on our mistaken views

成為了心理防禦機制 也使我們無意識地
has become a psychological defense mechanism which causes us to unknowingly

成為壓迫自己的體制的棋子
become pawns of the system that oppresses us

即使我們自以為自己是正義的義士
although we think of ourselves as just and morally courageous people,

但其實是我們迷失於斷章取義的歷史
it is actually us who are lost in deliberately misinterpreted history.

而敵視 並歧視 被壓迫的各國人民
We vilify and discriminate against the oppressed peoples of all countries;

自以為仁義 卻把壓迫者 奉若神明
we think we are righteous, yet we deify the oppressors.

不分明侵略和防禦只要求無條件的和平
We don't differentiate between aggression and defense, we simply ask for unprincipled peace,

得到奴隸主的肯定不過不被他們尊敬
gaining the approval of slave masters but not their respect.


2.
監禁率最高的國家被當作自由象徵
The country with the highest incarceration rate is considered to be a symbol of freedom;

最常推翻民選政府的它被當作摯友良朋
we call it our friend as it leads in overthrowing democratically elected governments.

我們只有盲人摸象般稱頌或貶斥
We make praises and criticisms based on conclusions made from bad information,

偏執地不檢視騙子掩飾的現實
stubbornly refusing to investigate the truths hidden by liars.

別人飢餓 我們說是領導人無人性
When others starve, we say their leaders are devoid of humanity

卻不記得制裁的目的 是經過餓死人民
while failing to remember that the goal of sanctions is to sabotage stability

破壞穩定 以迫使 革命群眾 放棄革命
through starvation in order to extort the revolutionary masses into giving up revolution.

如果這不是恐怖主義 那麼你的定義可能有問題
If this isn't terrorism, then your definition might be flawed.

我問你 唯一動用核武器的到底是誰？
I ask you, who is the only one to have used nuclear weapons?

為何朝鮮發展核武就被認為是罪？
Why is it considered a crime when (DPR) Korea develops nukes?

誰的奴性思維被支配得顛倒是非
Whose slave mentality's been been dominated to the point where right and wrong are inverted,

使我們把自衛視為威脅 把威脅視為慈悲？
having us believe defense is threatening and threats are benevolent?

是誰不知不覺地在重複戈培爾所起草
Who unknowingly repeats lies written by Goebbels

的流言蜚語的同時說別人被洗腦
while at the same time calling others brainwashed,

並對用著堅如鐵的毅力英勇地起義
while unreasonably being hostile towards those who use their iron-firm willpower

驅逐侵略者的人民無理地壞有敵意？
to heroically drive out aggressors through rebellion?

#朝鮮 #DPRK #Korea

English:
That's right, I really am this handsome
You've never seen a foreigner as amazing as I am
My Chinese isn't bad, I can say most anything
Obviously lots of girls are trying to chase me

That's why, whenever you say hi
I pretend I dont spend every day
Thinking of your eyes and your face and
Make you think that you and I aren't that close

But I, dont want to hurt you
And definitely dont want you to think I want you to leave
So baby let me tell you why my heart can only feel this happy because of you


Only with you here, can I feel alright
Money, other women could never make me want to leave
I'm completely yours and I'm waiting here for you
Hope you also wont decide to give up on us


And I hope you wont feel any pressure, oh baby yeah-ah-ah
In the end it's all your own decision
But you already know that I could never leave you
So I'm asking you to accept my heart

So I hope that one day you can understand
Me and you together, have to see how my luck goes

And I hope you wont feel any pressure, oh baby yeah-ah-ah
In the end it's all your own decision
But you already know that I could never leave you

I want to say that I couldn't love you anymore,
But thats something I've wanted to say before
Afterward I realize, back then it wasnt near as much
Being your man, thats really what its all about
I'll give you my heart, as long as you are willing
I'll be here, patiently waiting for your final choice
Every day, every hour, every minute,
Always have to keep you in my heart
This is the only good thing

And I hope you wont feel any pressure, oh baby yeah-ah-ah
In the end it's all your own decision
But you already know that I could never leave you
So I'm asking you to accept my heart
