人質事件兩政府達協議 菲律賓僅表"regret"
人質事件兩政府達協議 菲律賓僅表"regret"
菲律賓人質事件發生至今將近四年,香港政府終於與菲律賓政府就解決問題達成協議,但菲政府未按人質家屬的原來要求,就事件正式道歉。 港、菲政府今日發表聯合公告,提到菲律賓政府向受害者及家屬致以「最悲痛的歉意」;但英文聲明用字只是「sorrowful regret」,而非正式的道歉(Apology)。 聯合公告中英文版內容對照:
「菲律賓政府向受害者及家屬致以最悲痛的歉意和至誠的慰問,並對他們蒙受的痛苦表達最誠摯的哀悼。菲律賓國家警察總長已就此致函所有受害者或其家屬。 菲律賓人民為體現對港人的傷痛感同身受,以及彌補事件中受害者及其家屬的損失,將會向受害者或其家屬致以額外的慰問金,以表達最誠摯的關懷。 The Philippine Government expresses its most sorrowful regret and profound sympathy, and extends its most sincere condolences for the pain and suffering of the victims and their families. The Police Director General of the Government of the Republic of the Philippines has written to all victims or their families. In the spirit of solidarity and in acknowledgement of the loss of the victims and their families, an additional token of solidarity will be given to the victims or their families as a most sincere gesture of compassion of the people of the Philippines. 」
相反,台灣漁民洪石成在去年5月被菲律賓公務人員射殺,菲律賓政府面對台灣政府強硬施壓, 最後派特使赴台表達「深切遺憾及道歉」(deep regret and apology),用字明顯不同。 馬尼拉人質事件聯合公告全文(中英文版對照)
