6The Taiwanese and Chinese governments have signed a number of bilateral agreements on economic cooperation since 2010, with the latest Cross-Strait Service Trade Agreement signed in June 2013.Ny governemanta ao Taiwan sy ny governemanta Shinoa dia nanasonia fifanarahana maro ara-toekarena nanomboka ny taona 2000, niaraka tamin'ilay fifanarahana farany “Fifanarahan'i Cross-Strait momba ny Fifampivarotana Tolotra” nosoniavina ny volana Jona 2013.
7As the negotiation between the two governments have taken place in a black-box, many are worried that unrestricted entry of mainland capital poses a threat to Taiwanese culture, freedom of expression and even national security even though China is a huge market for Taiwanese businesses.Raha natao miafina ny fifanarahana nifanaovan'ny governemanta roa tonta, dia maro kosa ireo niahiahy ny amin'ny maha-loza mitatao amin'ny kolontsaina, ny fahalalahana maneho hevitra ary ny fiandrianam-pirenena io fidiran'ny renivola avy amin'ny tanibe ao io, na dia tsena goavana ho an'i Taiwan aza i Shina.
8To address the concerns, civic group Democratic Front Against Cross-Strait Trade in Services Agreement has led several protests and convinced the Legislative Yuan to hold public hearings [zh] on the latest Service Trade Agreement signed [zh] in June 2013.Mba hampitoniana ireo ahiahy maro, ny fikambanan'ny mponina Mandatehezana Demokratika Manohitra ny Fifanarahan'i Cross-Strat momba ny Fifampivarotana Tolotra dia nitarika hetsi-panoherana maro ary nandresy lahatra ny Paremanta Yuan, mba hikarakara fakàn-kevitra avy amin'ny daholobe [zh] momba ilay Fifanarahana Fifampivarotana Tolotra nosoniavina [zh] ny volana Jona 2013.
9The public hearings have started in the Legislative Yuan in November 2013.Natomboka tao amin'ny Parlemanta Yuan ilay fakàn-kevitra avy amin'ny daholobe ny volana Novambra 2013.
10So far more than 14 rounds have been held and more people from different service sectors will be invited to offer their view.Hatramin'izao, efa 14 ireo efa nokarakaraina ary olona maro avy aminà sehatra maro no efa nasaina nanome ny heviny.
11The open discussion has raised public awareness on the political consequences of the economic cooperation.Ilay adihevitra misokatra dia nanetsika ny fahalinan'ny olona tamin'ny fiantraika ara-politika sy ny vokatra aterak'io fifanarahana ara-toekarena io.
12Indeed and many concerned citizens have picked up the discussion on their own blogs and websites. Unequal agreementMaro be ireo olona sy ireo voakasika tamin'izany no naka ilay adihevitra ho ao amin'ny blaoginy sy ny vohikalany manokana.
13Upon reviewing the terms in the latest trade agreement signed between Taiwan and China, professor Show-Ling Jang from the economics department of National Taiwan University pointed out [zh, pdf] that due to the huge difference in the scale of each country's economy and the “hidden rules” embedded in the terms, the agreement is neither fair nor equal:Fifanarahana tsy mazava Taorian'ny namerenany nandinika ny voambolana nampiasaina tao amin'ilay fifanarahana ara-barotra nosoniavin'i Taiwan sy Shina, i Profesora Show-Ling Jang avy ao amin'ny Lalam-piofanana Toekarena ao amin'ny Oniversitem-pirenen'i Taiwan dia nanamafy [zh, pdf] fa noho ny tsy fitoviana ara-toekarena goavana misy eo amin'ny firenena tsirairay avy sy noho ireo “Fitsipika miafina” fonosin'ireo teny ampiasaina ao aminy, dia sady tsyrarin no mitanila ilay fifanarahana :
14There are tons of hidden rules in China and foreign competitors cannot play a fair game in China.Maro dia maro ireo fepetra miafina ao Shina ary tsy afaka ny hanao lalao madio ao Shina mihitsy noho izany ireo vahiny mpifaninana.
15For example, in the Service Trade Agreement, the terms require [foreign investors] to build partnership and share holdings with their mainland business partner.Ohatra, ao amin'ilay Fifanarahana Fifampivarotana Tolotra, ny fitsipika ao anatiny dia mitaky [ ireo mpampiasa vola vahiny] hanangana fiaraha-miombon'antoka sy hifampizara ny fananany amin'ireo mpiara-miombon'antoka aminy avy ao amin'ny tanibe.
16Such an arrangement will force our corporations to transfer their technology and intellectual property to their Chinese partners.Ny fifanarahana toy izany dia hanery ireo vondron'orinasantsika hampita ny teknolojiany sy ny fahaiza-manaony amin'ireo Shinoa mpiara-miombon'antoka aminy.
17In addition, Chinese capital is not purely commercial when entering Taiwan.Fanampin'izany, ny renivola Shinoa dia tsy tena ao amin'ny resaka varotra madiodio rehefa miditra any Taiwan.
18There are political and strategic considerations.Misy ny fijerena ny lafiny ara-politika sy ara-tetikady.
19It is outrageous that the Taiwanese government has opted to open up services that concern national security, such as communication and transportation services [for Chinese capital and investment].Tena tsy rariny ny fanokafan'ny governemanta ao Taiwan ireo tolotra mahakasika ny filaminam-pirenena, toy ny lafiny serasera sy ny Fitaterana [ho an'ny renivola sy ny fampiasam-bola Shinoa].
20Political satire of the “black box” agreements signed between Taiwan and China governments by etblueFampihomehezana ara-politika mikasika ny “fifanarahana miafina” nosoniavin'ny governemanta ao Taiwan sy i Shina nataon'i etblue
21Censorship practice erodes freedom of speech The authoritarian nature of the Chinese government and its censorship of expression has worried publication industries in Taiwan.Mamefy ny fahalalahana haneho hevitra ny fampiharana ny sivana Ny fomba fanaon'ny Governemanta Shinoa sy ireo sivana ami'ny fanehoan-kevitra ataony dia tena nampiahiahy be ihany ireo Orinasa fanontàna gazety/boky ao Taiwan.
22During the public hearings, many publishers and bookstore owners believed that the agreement will end up eroding freedom of expression in Taiwan.Nandritra ilay fakàna ny hevitry ny vahoaka, efa maro ireo mpanonta sy tomponà fivarotam-boky no nino fa tsy maintsy hiafara amin'ny famefena ny fahalalahana hiteny ao Taiwan ihany io fifanarahana io.
23For example, the owner of a small bookstore, Shiao-Shiao, pointed out [zh] in the hearings that unless the publishers were submissive to China's censorship, their books would never be distributed in mainland China:Ohatra iray amin'izany ny tomponà trano fivarotam-boky kely iray, Shiao-Shiao, izay nilaza [zh] tao amin'ilay fakàn-kevitra fa raha toa ireo mpanoratra ka tsy manaraka ny sivana napetrak'i Shina dia tsy hivoaka any amin'ny tanibe Shina velively ny boky nosoratan'izy ireo :
24The Chinese government has very strict control over publication as the publishers in China are all national corporations.Manana fanaraha-maso henjana amin'ny resaka fanontàna boky ny governemanta Shinoa amin'ny maha-vondron'orinasa nasionaly ny mpanonta rehetra ao Shina.
25The few small independent publishers need to buy “book numbers” from the national corporations to publish their books.Mila mividy “Laharam-boky” avy amin'ireo vondron'orinasa nasionaly ireo Orinasa tsy miankina vitsivitsy mpanonta boky ao an-toerana.
26There is no way that China's government will allow Taiwanese publishers to enter China.Tsy misy hirika mihitsy hamelàn'ny governemanta ao Shina ireo mpanonta boky avy ao Taiwan hiditra ao Shina.
27Whereas in Taiwan, our government's policy favors big publishers, [once the publication industry is open to China capital] the cultural diversity in Taiwan would be affected.Raha toa kosa ho an'i Taiwan, manome tombon-dahiny ho an'ireo goavana amin'ny fanontàna ny politikan'ny Governemantantsika, [vantany vao misokatra fotsiny ho an'ny renivola Shinoa] hisy fiantraikany amin'ny fahasamihafana ara-kolontsaina ao Taiwan izany.
28In fact, as pointed out by movie director Hong-Hong, upon entering mainland China, Taiwanese cultural industries have started to self-censor their work:Ny tena marina, araky ny efa nambaran'ilay talen'ny Famokarana horonan-tsary, Hong-Hong, tamin'ny vao nidirany tao Shina, dia efa nanomboka nanao sivana ny tenany ireo Orinasan'ny kolontaina Taiwan :
29China is not a free and democratic country.Tsy firenena malalaka sy demokratika i Shina.
30In recent years, many Taiwanese working in culture-related industries have entered China, and we can see how they have started to self-censor their works.Tato anatin'ny taona vitsy, maro ireo avy ao Taiwan no niasa tamin'ny orinasa mifandray amin'ny resaka kolontsaina tao Shina, ary iarahantsika mahita amin'izao ny fomba fanaovan'izy ireo sivana ny zavatra avoakany.
31Fu-Yi Chou, the CEO of Laiho Culture Foundation and Museum, made a suggestion during the public hearings regarding the exemption of culture-related industries from trade agreements:Fu-Yi Chou, ilay TAle Jeneralin'ny “Laiho Culture Foundation and Museum”, dia nanolotra soso-kevitra tao amin'ilay fakàna ny hevitry ny daholobe mahakasika ny fanesorana ireo Orinasa misahana ny ara-kolontsaina ao amin'ilay fifanarahana :
32“L'exception culturelle” is a worldwide consensus now.“L'exception culturelle” na ny “Ny fiavahana manokana ara-kolontsaina” dia lasa fifanarahana maneran-tany ankehitriny.
33France and Canada led the discussion in UNESCO and passed the Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions in 2005.Frantsa sy Canada no nitarika ilay adihevitra tao amin'ny UNESCO ary nanaiky ilay fifanarahana mikasika ny Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions ( Fifanarahana amin'ny Fiarovana Sy Fanomezana lanja ny Fahasamihafana Fanehoan-kevitra Ara-kolontsaina) ny taona 2005.
34While “l'exception culturelle” has already been put into practice worldwide, why does our government ignore it?Raha toa ka efa mihatra manerana izao tontolo izao ny “exception culturelle”, maninona izany no hodian'ny governemantantsika tsy hita?
35Why didn't the Ministry of Culture say a word about it?Maninona ny Minisitry ny Kolontsaina no tsy mba nilaza ny momba izany akory ?
36If so, why do we talk about a nation based on our culture?Araka izany, inona no antony tokony iresahantsika ny momba ny firenena iray mifototra amin'ny kolontsaintsika ?
37Political motivation and security threats through trade Indeed, the relationship between businesses and government in mainland China is so close that quite often economic activities are closely connected with political aims.Fandrisika Ara-politika Ary Loza Mitatao Ho An'ny Filaminana Noho ny Varotra Araka izany, tena mifanakaiky tokoa ny tontolon'ny Fandraharana sy ny governemanta ao Shina ka matetika ny sehatra ara-toekarena dia mifamatotra akaiky aminà tanjona ara-politika hatrany.
38Yu-Tsang, an engineer and a blogger, followed the discussion in the hearings and expressed concern on his blog over the political intention of China's investment in Taiwan:Yu-Tsang, enjienera sady bilaogera iray, no nanaraka ny adihevitra tao amin'ilay fakàn-kevitra ary naneho ny ahiahiny tao amin'ny bilaoginy mikasika ny ambadika politika hoentin'i Shina amin'ny fampiasany vola ao Taiwan :
39Taking into account political considerations, the Chinese government may subsidize their corporations to invest in Taiwan.Raha raisintsika ny fomba fijery ara-politika, mety hamatsy vola ireo vondron'orinasa ao aminy ny governemanta Shinoa mba hahafahan'izy ireo mampiasa vola ao Taiwan.
40In fact, it is possible that politics is the main objective for Chinese corporations coming to Taiwan.Ny tena marina, mety mitombina ny hoe ny politika no tanjona voalohan'ireo vondron'orinasa Shinoa ao Taiwan.
41Therefore, it is very important to prevent political subsidy when we discuss about the Service Trade Agreement with China.Noho izany, zava-dehibe ny misoroka ny famatsiam-bola ara-politika rehefa miresaka momba ny Fifanarahana Fifampivarotana Tolotra amin'i Shina isika.
42Some even worried that when Chinese corporations enter the Internet service industry, personal privacy and national security would be endangered.Misy mihitsy aza ireo manahy fa ho tandindonin-doza ny fiainana manokana sy ny filaminam-pirenena rehefa miditra amin'ny indostrian'ny tolotra aterineto ireo vondrn'orinasa Shinoa.
43Professor Ying-Dar Lin from the National Chiao-Tung University gave a warning to the Taiwan government:Profesora Ying-Dar Lin avy ao amin'ny Oniversite nasionaly Chiao-Tung dia nanome fampitandremana ny governemanta ao Taiwan :
44It is possible to create a backdoor in the network's facilities [for intelligence agencies] to get around Internet service providers to steal user data and monitor specific users' communication.Azo atao tsara ny manokatra varavarana hafa hidirana amin'ny fotodrafitrasan'ny tambajotra iray (ho an'ireo sampam-pitsikilovana) handinganany ireo mpanome tlotra aterineto ka hangalarany ny rakitra momba ireo mpanjifa sy hanarahay maso ny fifandraisan'ireo mpisera nokinendriny manokana.
45Putting aside political speculations, as Taiwan's economy is composed of predominantly small- and medium-size enterprises while their mainland counterparts are giant national corporations, the difference in economic scales makes it impossible for an equal playing field.Apetraka aloha ny fanahiana ara-politika, koa satria ny toekarena ao Taiwan dia ivondronan'ireo orinasa madinika sy salantsalan raha toa kosa ireo orinasa hafa mitovy aminy avy any amin'ny tanibe ka vondron'orinasam-panjakana vaventy, ny elanelana eo amin'ny lanja ara-toekarena dia miteraka fahasarotana amin'ny hisian'ny seha-pilalaovana isian'ny fitoviana.
46Professor Show-Ling Jang explained [zh]:I Profesora Show-Ling Jang no nanazava toy izao [zh] :
47In Taiwan, the service sector is composed of 935,000 enterprises.Ao Taiwan, ny sehatry ny tolotra dia ahitàna orinasa miisa 935.000.
4886 percent provide non-knowledge-intensive services and the average number of staff in these enterprises is 4.2.86 isan-jatony no mamatsy tolotra tsy dia ilàna fari-pahaizana manao ahoana loatra ary ny salan'isan'ny mpitantana ao amin'izany orinasa izany dia 4,2.
49Compared to the US (15 staff) and Japan (8.6 staff), most of our enterprises are very small.Raha ampitahaina amin'i Etazonia (mpitantana 15 ) ary i Japana ( mpitantana 8,6 ), tena orinasa madinika avokoa ny ankamaroan'ireo orinasantsika.
50Taiwanese and Chinese speak the same language, and we are geologically close to each other.Mitovy ny teny ampiasaina ny ao Taiwan sy Shina, ary mifanakaiky tokoa isika raha ny ara-jeografia no jerena.
51However, the size of the economies and labor conditions are so different.Kanefa, tsy mitovy mihitsy ny toerana eo amin'ny sehatra ara-toekarena sy ny asa.
52China's huge capital flow and low labor costs will bring an adverse impact to our employment market and labor income structure.Hisy fiantraikany ratsy eo amin'ny tsenan'ny asa sy ny rafitry ny karaman'ireo mpiasa ny fitosahan'ny renivola goavana sy ny karama ambany any Shina.
53Backdoor for immigrationVaravarana ho amin'ny fifindra-monina
54As the agreement allows China corporation to recruit a certain number of overseas staffs according to their investment scale, some are worried that it will create a backdoor for mainland Chinese immigration to Taiwan.Koa satria manome alalana ny vondron'orinasa ao Shina hampiditra mpiasa maro avy any ivelany ilay fifanarahana araky ny haben'iny fampiasam-bolan-dry zareo, dia maro ireo manahy hoe hamorona fifindra-monina Shinoa mihoapampana hankao Taiwan izany.
55Professor Show-Ling Jang explained how the agreement will serve as a migration channel:I Profesora Show-Ling Jang dia nanazava ny mety hahalasa iny fifanarahana iny ho varavarana misokatra ho amin'ny fifindra-monina :
56Based on this agreement, a Chinese corporation can arrange two staff members to stay in Taiwan if their investment reaches 200,000 US dollars, and they can arrange more employees to stay in Taiwan if they invest 500,000 US dollars for each person up to seven people.Miainga amin'io fifanarahana io ihany, ny vondron'orinasa Shinoa iray dia afaka ny hanao izay hemetrahana mpiasa roa ao Taiwan raha toa ka mahatratra hatramin'ny 200.000 Dolara Amerikana ny vola ampiasainy, ary afaka ny hametraka mpiasa maro kokoa izy ireo raha toa ka mampiasa 500.000 Dolara Amerikana isaky ny olona hatramin'ny fito ry zareo.
57Compared to the rules for skilled immigration in other countries, the rules adopted in this agreement are quite generous… Since there is no restrictions on their expertise and no limitation on the period of residency, it functions as a de facto migration channel.Raha oharina amin'ny fepetra fifindra-monin'ny mpiasa any amin'ny firenen-kafa, dia toa malefaka ihany ireo fepetra nolaniana ao anatin'ity fifanarahana ity… Satria tsy misy famerana ara-pahalalana sy famerana amin'ny fahafahana mivahiny ho azy ireo, dia miasa ho toy ny fantsona ahafahana mifindra monina “ho azy” io.
58The Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA) between Taiwan and China was signed in June 2010, followed by the Bilateral Investment Agreement signed in August 2012. The latest Service Trade Agreement was signed in June 2013.Nosoniavina ny volana Jona 2010 ny Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA) na ny Fifanarahana Fiaraha-miasa eo amin'ny Sehatra Ara-toekarena eo amin'ny Taiwan sy Shina, izay narahan'ilay Fifanarahana Fampiasam-bola teo amin'ny roa tonta nosoniavina ny volana Aogositra 2012.
59According to an online survey conducted by a civic group, Big Citizens Is Watching You, among the 61.6 percent of the 2,259 respondents who have some knowledge about the Service Trade Agreement, more than 97.4 percent do not support it, 38.1 percent of the respondents have no knowledge of this agreement, 0.3 percent do not have an opinion, and only 1.6 percent who know about it support it.Ary ny fifanarahana farany dia ilay Fifanarahana Fifampivarotana Tolotra nosoniavina ny volana Jona 2013. Araky ny fanadihadiana tet anaty aterineto nataon'ny fikambanana iray, Big Citizens Is Watching You, amin'ireo 61,6 isan-jaton'ny olona 2259 nanontaniana mikasika ilay Fifanarahana Fifampivarotana Tolotra, dia maherin'ny 97,5 isan-jato ireo tsy mankasitraka izany, 38,1 no tsy mahalala na inona na inona mikasika izany fifanarahana izany, 0,3 isan-jato no tsy manan-kevitra, ary 1,6 isan-jato monja ireo mahalala sy mankasitraka izany.
