Relations sour between Taiwan and Philippines over fisherman's death
台菲關係因漁民之死生變


(CNN) -- May has been a bad month for relations between Taiwan and the
Philippines.
對於台菲關係來說 五月是個不好的月份

Taiwan has reacted angrily after one of its fishermen was killed by a
Philippine coast guard vessel last week. It has recalled its diplomatic envoy
from Manila, frozen applications from Filipinos seeking to work in Taiwan and
held naval drills near Philippine waters.

上個禮拜台灣一個漁民被菲律賓海巡船射殺後
台灣政府表示十分憤怒
台灣政府將其外交使節由馬尼拉召回
中止菲勞的申請作業
並且在菲律賓領海附近舉行海軍演習

The Philippine coast guard has said the crew of one of its ships fired at the
Taiwanese fishing boat on May 9
after it tried to ram a Philippine boat.
Manila insists that the shooting took place in waters inside its exclusive
economic zone and that the loss of life was "unintended."

菲律賓海巡隊說五月九日一艘所屬船艦在台灣漁船對菲艦進行衝撞後
對台灣漁船開火射擊
馬尼拉堅稱該事件發生在菲律賓的專屬經濟海域內
而人員死亡絕非本意

But Taiwan says the Philippine vessel sprayed the fishing boat with bullets
in waters claimed by the exclusive economic zones of both countries. It says
the 65-year-old fisherman, Hung Shih-cheng, was fatally shot in the back.

但台灣表示菲艦在雙方重疊的經濟海域內
把台灣漁船打得全船都是彈孔打成一馬蜂窩
台灣表示65歲的漁民 Hung Shih-cheng 的致命傷是來自背部的槍擊

The souring ties between the two countries are born out of the messy mix of
competing territorial claims to parts of the South China Sea and nearby
waters by Brunei, China, Malaysia, the Philippines, Taiwan and Vietnam. The
areas in dispute include fertile fishing grounds and potentially rich
reserves of undersea natural resources.

爭端的背景主要是雙方對南海的領海主張有重疊
附近的海域有汶萊 中國 馬來西亞 菲律賓台灣和越南等多國都有重疊的領海爭議
爭奪的利益主要是漁場以及海底的豐富自然資源

President Ma Ying-jeou of Taiwan on Friday described last week's shooting as
a "cold-blooded murder," the Taiwanese national news agency CNA reported.

根據台灣中央社報導
台灣總統馬英九星期五形容上周的槍擊事件是"冷血謀殺"

Ma has so far deemed the Philippine response to the killing to be
unsatisfactory. His government has demanded that Manila make a formal
apology, compensate the losses, investigate and punish those responsible, and
start talks between the two countries on a fishing agreement.

馬英九認為菲律賓到目前為止的回應令人感到不滿
他的政府要求馬尼拉應該要 1.正式道歉  2.賠償損失
3.調查並追究責任 並且4.開啟雙方的漁業協定談判

Among the series of measures Taiwan has imposed this week to show its
displeasure is a travel alert urging its citizens not to visit to the
Philippines.

本周台灣政府發布一連串的制裁
包括將菲律賓列為旅行紅色警告地區 勸告台灣民眾不要前往旅行
以此表示對菲方回應的不滿

The Philippine government, meanwhile, has started to show frustration with
the Taiwanese stance.

菲方對台灣的回應感到沮喪

"We did what a decent member, a respectable member of the international
community should have done," Edwin Lacierda, a spokesman for President
Benigno Aquino III, said Thursday. "We have gone the extra mile."

"我們盡了身為國際社會一員應盡的義務"
菲律賓總統府發言人 Edwin Lacierda 週四表示
"我們甚至還多送了兩把蔥"

Aquino sent "a personal representative to extend his apology" and offer
financial assistance to the family of the dead fisherman, Lacierda said,
according to CNN affiliate ABS-CBN. Philippine authorities are investigating
the shooting, he said.

"菲律賓總統艾奎諾派了個人代表赴台以表達他的歉意  並且願意對死亡漁民家屬
提供經濟協助" Edwin Lacierda說 "菲律賓當局並且已展開槍擊案的調查 "

He warned that the measures imposed by the Taiwanese government would hurt
the economies of both countries.

他也警告台灣說台灣政府的各種制裁舉動
對雙方的經濟都會造成傷害

Lacierda also appealed to the Taiwanese people not to hurt Filipinos living
in Taiwan amid reports of harassment.

Edwin Lacierda 並且請求台灣人民不要傷害在台菲人
因為菲方已經接獲不少菲人遭受騷擾的報告

But Garfie Li, a spokeswoman for Ma, said Lacierda's comments about going the
extra mile were "were untrue and totally unacceptable," according to CNA.

但台灣總統府發言人李佳霏表示菲方的說法"不是事實而且完全無法接受"

The United States, an ally of both the Philippines and Taiwan, has expressed
regret" over the fisherman's death and urged the two sides "to work together
and to ensure maritime safety, and refrain from actions that could further
escalate tensions."

美國作為台菲兩國的友邦
對於漁民的死亡表示遺憾
而且呼籲雙方共同合作以確保海域安全
雙方應該克制不要讓情勢繼續升高

China has supported Taiwan, which it views as a breakaway province.

中國在此事件上支持台灣
中國將台灣視為分離的一省

"We have repeatedly condemned the violent killing of the innocent fisherman
since the incident happened," Yang Yi, a spokesman for the State Council's
Taiwan Affairs Office, said Wednesday, according to the state-run news agency
Xinhua. "We have demanded that the Philippine side take the case seriously,
find out the truth as quickly as possible and punish those responsible."

"自事件發生以來 我們多次強烈譴責菲方對漁民的暴力殺戮"
中國國務院國台辦發言人楊毅週三對國營報社新華社表示
"我們要求菲方認真對待此案 發掘真相並且追究責任"

Beijing and Manila are already at odds over a different territorial dispute
in the region that led to a maritime standoff last year.

北京和馬尼拉在去年已經因為同區域的另一個領土爭議案有所對立
