捷克一行近90人來訪,其中除了參議院議長、以及布拉格首都市長,還有大批記者、文藝及產業相關團體一起來
對台灣在中東歐來說,是一個絕佳展現自信、理念、產業還有交流的機會。
對於產業,我們更熱於看到中央、地方,到商業上面的契機
捷克是高科技產業的重鎮,根據我國駐捷克辦事處的文件指出:”捷克電機電子電腦業工業占捷克總製造業產值13%以上,僅次於鋼鐵金屬製造業及汽機車交通製造業。...捷克本身亦有超過31,000家的ICT業者,80%業者係提供ICT服務,其中捷克軟體公司包括AVG Technologies、AVAST防毒軟體公司、GoodData、Y-SOFT、Socialbakers等均有相當優異之表現...台商如鴻海、緯創、華碩、和碩等在捷克設廠組裝電腦及成立區域維修中心”
這些資訊都展現產業的互補性。這一次除了台、捷兩國,包含日本媒體也大力著墨此次訪問團,大幅增加台灣在歐洲的識別度,品牌度以及能見度。
除此之外,根據中央社引述之經濟部資料,
“捷克為台灣在歐洲的第4大投資國,投資規模僅次於德國、荷蘭與英國,累計至去年9月,台灣在捷克的投資案共25件,金額達1億6048萬美元,而台捷雙邊去年的貿易額近8.2億美元,台灣享有貿易順差8978萬美元。”
捷克對台的投資及利害關係,也不斷上升。
這些經貿上面的合作,將會是未來務實交流的方向。
中東歐國家,特別是前蘇聯衛星國民主化之後,許多人對於蘇共以己方龐大政軍實力,影響干預衛星國家的所有層面,都感到厭惡。
也因此,當中國外交部長王毅表示「中國會讓維特齊付出深重代價」這種恫嚇式的言論時,其實傷害的不僅僅是兩岸之間的信任,也傷害中國、東歐、甚至歐洲整體關係。
利用意識形態去綁架經濟,這在新的全球政治中,只會遭受到更大的反彈。
這幅作品,是在今年6月初,一位捷克藝術家特別希望藉由我轉送給市府,是布拉格的一景,現在原尺寸的作品就在台北市政府裡,想看到布拉格,可以在台北市看見。
我真誠期待,除了國會、產業之外,地方政府在公共政策的交流,也能夠順利發展。
台北對布拉格,特別能在在教育交流、商務/資通人員交流、公務員定期交流上面,開啟一連串的前例:不要忘記,現任的Hrib市長,過去也是實習醫師。
也期待並祝福台北市與布拉格,能夠在所有領域增強交流,一起前進!

Vitáme vás na Tchaj-wanie!
Please join me in extending a warm welcome to the 90-member strong delegation from the beautiful nation of Czechia.
Our two countries share common history: we have both transformed from authoritarian single-party rule to a democracy that guarantees basic freedoms and equal rights for their citizens.
But we should also look towards the future in unison: I believe that technology should constitute the core of our future relations. Czechia has been deservedly called the "Silicon Valley of Europe." The recent introduction of a new brand “The Czech Republic: The Country For The Future” clearly demonstrates that our priorities align closely, especially in light of President Tsai's 5+2 innovative industries plan.
—
To our noisy neighbors across the strait, Taiwan’s Czech friends who are currently visiting our country are mere “rule-breakers trampling on diplomatic civilization.” This goes to show me that PRC’s Foreign Minister Wang is in a dire need of a history lesson, as he appears to be completely ignorant of the reshuffling in “diplomatic civilization” brought about by the Third Wave of Democratization.
In 1989, the prospect of freedom filled the people of East Asia and Eastern Europe with hope. It would be hard to overlook the important parallels between the Velvet Revolution and the White Lily Movement (野百合學運).
The ‘89 Student Movement in China (八九民運) was propelled by the same energy; yet, lamentably, it resulted in very different outcomes.
In Czechia and Taiwan, the hope for a better tomorrow became a reality. Our two countries continue to serve as shining beacons of democracy amidst regional struggles. Since the 1980s, Prague and Taipei sought to be active stakeholders in the construction of a “diplomatic civilization” built on the principles of freedom, mutual respects, and human rights. Beijing consistently refuses to join us in this endeavor.
This is why Prague has more in common with Taipei than with Beijing, Minister Wang. Czechia and Taiwan have long endured authoritarian oppression. Today, we declare in unison: “Never Again!”
The visit of our Czech friends is not a “defiant move” - it is a nod to the laudable legacy of late President and champion of democratization, Mr. Vacláv Havel.

捷克參議院議長柯佳洛去世前收到的威脅信 中英文翻譯
Prague, 10th January 2020
2020年1月10日,布拉格
►The Taiwan issue is highly sensitive. The One-China Policy serves as the political basis for China in order to preserve and develop friendly relations and cooperate with all countries in the world, including the Czech Republic.
台灣問題高度敏感。一中政策是中國與全球包括捷克共和國在內的所有國家維護和發展友好關係並合作的政治基礎。
►The Chinese government resolutely opposes any official contact between any country that maintains diplomatic relations with China and Taiwan (including any mutual visits between parliamentary representatives and deputies).
中國政府堅決反對中國之所有邦交國與台灣間有任何官方往來(包括議會代表與議員之間的任何互訪)。
►Top representatives of Western countries, including the USA, the United Kingdom, France and Germany, abide by the One-China Policy, and none of them has visited Taiwan (Jacques Brotchi, the then Chairman of the Belgian Senate, who visited Taiwan in May 2019, has already resigned from his office and received a lifetime ban from entering China).
西方國家(包括美國,英國,法國和德國)的最高代表都遵從一中政策,且沒有一個人訪問過台灣(當時的比利時聯邦參議院議長 Jacques Brotchi 曾於 2019年5月訪問台灣,其現已辭職,並令終身禁止進入中國)。
►The joint declaration on the establishment of the strategic partnership between the People’s Republic of China and the Czech Republic states that “the Czech Republic has again confirmed its observance of the One-China Policy, as well as its respect towards the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the People’s Republic of China”.
在中華人民共和國與捷克共和國建立戰略夥伴關係的聯合聲明中寫道:“捷克共和國再次確認其遵守一個中國政策,並尊重中華人民共和國領土與主權的完整”。
►Whatever its form and purpose, a visit to Taiwan by Jaroslav Kubera, the Chairman of the Senate of the Parliament of the Czech Republic and as such the second highest representative of the Czech Republic, bears the marks of an official visit. That would constitute a grave violation of the recognition of the One-China principle.
捷克共和國國會參議院議長 Jaroslav Kubera 作為捷克共和國第二層級的最高政治代表,若訪問台灣,無論其形式及目的為何,此舉都將被視為是官方正式的外交出訪,具有不可逆的政治意義。此舉將嚴重違反對於 “一中原則” 的承認。 **(bears the marks of 留下印記這裡我試試看有別於字面上的翻法!不知道有沒有更好地翻法?)**
►The Chinese-Czech strategic partnership has been continuously developing over the last few years, thus bringing tangible benefits to Czech enterprises. China has already become the largest foreign market for many Czech companies, such as Škoda Auto, Home Credit Group, Klavíry Petrof and others.
近年來,中捷戰略夥伴關係不斷發展,為捷克企業帶來了實質的利益。對於許多捷克公司(例如 汽車製造商 Škoda Auto,捷信集團 Home Credit Group,佩卓夫鋼琴 Klavíry Petrof 等),中國已經成為最大的國外市場。
►A potential visit to Taiwan by Chairman Kubera would seriously hurt the feelings of the Chinese people, damage the friendly atmosphere of cooperation between China and the Czech Republic, the Czech Republic’s reputation among the Chinese public and the interests of the Czech Republic.
Kubera 議長可能對台灣進行的訪問將嚴重損害中國人民的感情,損害中國與捷克共和國之間的友好合作氣氛、捷克共和國在中國公眾中的聲譽以及捷克共和國的利益。
►Czech enterprises whose representatives visit Taiwan with Chairman Kubera will not be welcome in China or by the Chinese people. Czech enterprises with economic interests in China will have to pay for Chairman Kubera’s visit to Taiwan.
與 Kubera 議長一起訪問台灣的捷克企業代表,將不被中國與中國人民歡迎。在中國具有經濟利益的捷克企業將為 Kubera 議長對台灣的訪問付出代價。
►Chairman Kubera’s visit to Taiwan will not benefit anyone. We hope that the Czech side will observe the One-China policy and cancel this visit, thus avoiding damaging Chinese-Czech relations.
Kubera 議長對台灣的訪問將不會使任何人受益。我們希望捷克方面遵守一中政策並取消此次訪問,以免破壞中捷關係。

一直找不到全信的中文內容,有點煩躁,所以我在上面那個網址找到了這封捷克語威脅信的全文英文翻譯,然後就自己努力地翻成中文了(本人非外交或外文專業,翻譯內容可能有誤,請多指教😓),如果大家需要的話可以直接轉發。
★ 連結中寫道:“The threatening letter eschews diplomatic protocol; it is written as a series of “bullet points”, lacking even a salutation. It appears to have been translated by a non-native speaker, from a Chinese original into nearly flawless Czech.”
此封威脅信不以外交禮儀寫成;而是使用條列式列出了一系列要點,信中甚至沒有收信人的稱呼(一般書信在開頭會有 Dear xx)。它似乎是由非母語人士翻譯而成的,從原本的中文翻譯成了近乎完美的捷克語。
★ “In 2019, the chairman of the Czech Senate, Jaroslav Kubera, announced a trip to Taiwan as head of a business delegation. Various voices in local politics criticised these plans out loud, most notably the country’s CCP-friendly president Miloš Zeman, who said Kubera’s Taiwan visit would mean the end of their friendship. The PRC’s direct attempt to prevent the visit was not, however, made through public channels.”
2019年,捷克參議院主席 Jaroslav Kubera 宣布作為商務代表團團長前往台灣。地方政治上出現了各種聲音大聲批評了此計劃,最值得注意的是捷克的親中總統 Miloš Zeman,他表示,柯佳洛議長對台灣的訪問將意味著中捷兩國友誼的終結。然而,中國嘗試阻止訪問的直接方法並不是透過公開透明的管道。
★ 據捷克媒體 Aktuálně 於2/19的報導(source: https://zpravy.aktualne.cz/…/r~3602b9ba51a711eaa5e40cc47ab…/)
重點節錄:這封信經過了捷克總統府,並隨信附有捷克總統府對外辦公室主任 *Rudolf Jindrák* 的評論,最後轉交給了柯佳洛。信件發出後的第七天,柯佳洛去世了,這封信在他的辦公室裡被發現。
*(💥 查資料的過程中不小心翻到這位 Rudolf Jindrák 似乎有過共產黨背景...... https://taiwantrc.org/捷克駐德大使被指曾是共黨軍情系統同路人/ 這篇是2010年的...不確定現在的情形,但我google到的時候真的有覺得不太對勁...)
(然後請大家不要曲解意思,我沒有說是這封信害死了柯佳洛,只寫了這是他去世之前收到的威脅信,這裡的威脅指的是對於捷克外交和經濟上的。)
