Tsai Ing-Wen
President, Taiwan
蔡英文
台灣總統
BY CARRIE GRACIE
Tsai Ing-wen says Taiwan’s story is one of resilience: its commitment to
democracy in the face of a mounting challenge to its existence. In 2021,
the president of Taiwan has herself epitomised that resilience, coolly
navigating the dangers of the country’s position on the geopolitical
faultline between authoritarianism and democracy.
蔡英文說,台灣的故事是關於韌性的:即使面對日益嚴峻的生存挑戰,
但仍堅持對民主的承諾。
2021年,蔡總統親自體現了這種韌性,
在威權主義和民主之間的地緣政治斷層上冷靜地駕馭了其危險的處境。
The United States’ faltering response to Covid-19, its domestic political
turmoil and its chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan have all served to
reinforce Beijing’s growing confidence that US global power and credibility
are on the wane. With Taiwan central to any future contest for supremacy in
East Asia, there is no nuance in Beijing’s increasingly assertive shows of
military might around thesland.
由於美國對武漢肺炎的反應遲鈍、國內政局不穩以及從阿富汗的混亂撤軍,
讓北京日益堅信美國的全球實力和信用度正在減弱。
也由於台灣是將來東亞霸權爭奪戰的核心,
中國在台灣周圍更加頻繁與強力地展示軍事實力並不稀奇。
But unlike so many of the world’s political and business leaders who
self-censor at the first hint of displeasure from Beijing, Tsai does not
buckle in the face of intimidation. Noroes she antagonise. Instead she
continues to articulate, and to demonstrate through her own style of
leadership, how Taiwan's values are distinct from those of its giant
neighbour. Her leadership offers a lesson for all of us: how to respect
Chinese interests without selling out our own.
但蔡英文與世界上許多看到北京氣噗噗就自我審查的政治/企業領導人不同,
蔡英文在恐嚇面前不會屈服,但她也不對抗。
相反,她繼續闡述並透過她的領導風格,
展示了台灣價值與其巨大鄰國的價值有何不同。
她的領導為我們所有人上了一課:如何尊重中國的利益而不出賣我們自己的利益

柯師傅看到這四個字不知道會不會又要發作了,
不過英國本來就是塔綠斑之一,會幫小英總統宣傳也是很自然的。
