錢是台灣人民納稅,怎麼用卻不被揭露。美國智庫是拿錢辦事,還是以金援為名收受獻金為實?

華府智庫昆西治安研究所(Quincy Institute)民主外交政策計畫執行人克里夫頓(Eli Clifton)於17日發表《台灣金援智庫:無所不在但很少揭露》(Taiwan funding of think tanks: Omnipresent and rarely disclosed)一文指出,台灣金援了美國五大智庫,促使這些智庫向美國執政者建言,做出有利於台灣綠營執政政府的美國政策。該文發出後,台北經濟文化代表處政治組組長趙怡翔緊急在推特上指出,該文有錯失之處,且並未向台北經濟文化代表處查證置評。
文章稱,台灣金援的五個華府智庫包括布魯金斯學會、美國進步中心(CAP)、新美國安全中心(CNAS)、戰略與國際研究中心(CSIS)以及哈德遜研究所,都有來自於台北經濟文化代表處的資金,但都將其深埋在其年度報告中。這五個華盛頓最著名、看似公正的的智庫一直在發表政策文件,敦促美國與台灣建立更緊密的關係,擴大美國與台灣的武器銷售和貿易協定,卻沒有廣泛披露其背後來自台北經濟文化代表處(TECRO)的高額資金。
支持台有助民主自由
文章詳列台北經濟文化代表處對五大智庫的贊助金額,及這些智庫收到贊助後為台灣做了什麼。文章稱,布魯金斯學會學者於2019年12月為《台北時報》撰文,指出美國兩黨支持在台灣和美國的重要性;美國進步中心研究員在今年3月分《華盛頓月刊》上發表專欄文章稱,加強美台關係將有助民主自由,並在2019年9月發表《如何支持亞洲的民主與人權》報告時,直接向美國決策者「為如何穩固支持台灣」提供直接建議。
而新美國安全中心向華盛頓提供有關2020年《中國崛起的挑戰》報告時,敦促美國決策者優先考慮與台灣的雙邊投資和貿易協定;CSIS在5月發表前美國駐港澳總領事唐偉康(Kurt Tong)的文章,其中主張美台達成貿易協定,將能加強美國在亞洲領導地位。
倡售台集束炸彈抗中
哈德遜研究所則於5月向美國決策者提出售台「集束炸彈」,以便台灣可以威脅對中共具有重大政治價值的非軍事目標及領導人,並建議鼓勵台灣有效威脅中國的非軍事目標。還鼓勵美國決策者「做出直接有利於台灣綠營執政黨的政策」,敦促美國決策者承認「一個自治或獨立的台灣」。

Taiwan funding of think tanks: Omnipresent and rarely disclosed
https://responsiblestatecraft.org/2020/06/17/taiwan-funding-of-think-tanks-omnipresent-and-rarely-disclosed/
[節錄]
Why not disclose?
Hudson may be the most extreme in its policy proposals, but the consistent behavior from the five think tanks is unmistakable: General support funding from Taiwan’s government is never disclosed when experts, whose salaries may well be partially funded by TECRO dollars, offer policy recommendations regarding U.S.-Taiwan relations.
“My philosophy is that if you’re producing any report, you should put right up front in an acknowledgment section that lists the specific funders, including general-support funders, that helped make this report possible and list any potential conflict of interest with the funders,” said Freeman of the Foreign Influence Transparency Initiative. “Let the reader judge for themself whether there’s a conflict of interest.”
Though the appearance or possibility of a conflict of interest does not mean that the funding flows from Taiwan influenced the work products produced by the think tanks, the decision not to prominently disclose the funding may undermine otherwise valuable analysis and policy proposals.
“It seems like because they hid it, they have something to hide,” said Freeman. “When the public trust in government is at all-time lows and people think D.C. is so corrupt, it’s even more important for think tanks and think tank scholars to put this information out there and try and restore the trust of the American public.”
Indeed, as acceptance of a cold war posture toward China becomes ever more accepted as a foregone conclusion by Washington influencers, one of them actually highlighted the danger of foreign funding going largely undisclosed.
CNAS’s 2020 report that advocated for a U.S.-Taiwan trade agreement warned of think tanks receiving “substantial funding from Beijing that is often targeted at shaping views and discourse on China.” CNAS recommended “higher degrees of transparency” to help “ensure that this funding is not generating hidden forms of foreign lobbying, self-censorship, or other activities that undermine core U.S. democratic principles.”
That self-awareness about the potential influence of foreign funding, and the ethical arguments for greater transparency, does not appear to extend to the omnipresent funding stream from Taipei to think tanks across the Beltway.

influenced中文 在 林易瑩 台南市議員 Facebook 的最佳貼文
台灣,我們的國家,一直以來便以充滿自由、民主、多元、包容的價值而自豪,身為國際的一份子,即便不被他國認同,我們依然願意敞開大門、伸出援手,如同蔡英文總統說的Taiwan is helping,因為這是我們深信的價值,現在如是、未來亦如是。
我們已經把蔡總統的文章轉換成簡體中文了,請大家分享出去,讓FB上的 #外國朋友們,也能看到我們台灣人一直對自身所堅持的價值感到驕傲。
简体中文翻译:
对于今天台湾被指控在国际社会上发动种族歧视攻击的言论,我要表达强烈的抗议。台湾向来反对任何形式的歧视,我们长年被排除在国际组织之外,比谁都知道被歧视和孤立是什么滋味。
借着今天这个机会,我想要邀请世界卫生组织谭德塞干事长(Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus)访问台湾,感受一下台湾人民如何努力在遭受歧视和孤立之中,坚持走向世界、贡献国际社会。
在世界各地,包括谭德塞干事长的家乡在内,都可以看到台湾的医疗人员和志愿工作者无私奉献的身影,台湾人不会用肤色、语言去区分他人,所有人都是我们的兄弟姐妹。台湾,从来没有因为无法加入国际组织,就减少对国际的支持。
疫情期间,台湾倾全国之力防疫,成绩也受到世界瞩目。即使世界卫生组织因为政治的操弄将台湾排除在门外,我们还是扛起国际社会成员的责任,主动援助口罩等防疫物资,给疫情严重国家的医护人员。
#TaiwanCanHelp,而且Taiwan is helping,这一点,从来不会因为国度或种族而有差别。
自由、民主、多元、包容,是台湾人坚信的价值,我们不会接受利用种族歧视的言论,来攻击不同意见的人。如果谭德塞干事长能抵挡中国的压力,踏上台湾的土地,就能了解到我们对防疫的努力,并且理解真正受到不公平待遇的,其实是台湾人民。我相信只有台湾的加入,世界卫生组织的拼图才会完整。
英文原文:
I strongly protest the accusations today that Taiwan is instigating racist attacks in the international community. Taiwan has always opposed all forms of discrimination. For years, we have been excluded from international organizations, and we know better than anyone else what it feels like to be discriminated against and isolated.
I want to take this opportunity to invite Director-General Tedros to visit Taiwan and experience for himself how committed the Taiwanese people are to engaging with and contributing to the world, even in the face of discrimination and isolation.
Taiwan’s selfless medical workers and volunteers can be found around the world. The Taiwanese people do not differentiate by skin color or language; all of us are brothers and sisters. We have never let our inability to join international organizations lessen our support for the international community.
Taiwan has poured all of its efforts into stopping the spread of COVID-19, and our achievements have received a great deal of attention from around the world. Despite being excluded from the WHO due to political manipulation, we have shouldered our responsibility as a member of the international community and taken the initiative to donate face masks and other supplies to medical workers in countries hit hardest by the coronavirus pandemic.
#TaiwanCanHelp, and the spirit of Taiwan is Helping has never been influenced by nationality or race.
Taiwan is dedicated to the values of freedom, democracy, diversity, and tolerance. We do not condone the use of racist remarks to attack those with different opinions. If Director-General Tedros could withstand pressure from China and come to Taiwan to see Taiwan’s efforts to fight COVID-19 for himself, he would be able to see that the Taiwanese people are the true victims of unfair treatment. I believe that the WHO will only truly be complete if Taiwan is included.

前進樂團過年在英國的時候,除了到處去很多學校表演給英國的學生聽(鼓勵他們多學中文),Josh也訪問了一個很棒的創作歌手Robi Mitch! 大家看看一個英國的創作歌手怎麼樣被華語音樂影響了!
Transition were busy at Chinese New Year 2020 visiting schools all around the UK, performing and encouraging the students with their Chinese learning! On top of that, Josh also interviewed a talented singer/songwriter from Bristol 'Robi Mitch' about his music and how he has been influenced by Mandarin music!

【Chorizo & Porcini Radish Cake】
This time I am going to use chorizo and porcini to substitute for Chinese sausage and shiitake mushrooms in traditional radish cake (or turnip cake). So for people who are sick of having that very same taste of radish cake in every Chinese New Year, you should give this recipe a try! And for those who are not familiar with Chinese ingredients, you should start with this kind of recipes before you are going to buy yourself a Chinese pantry. Hope you guys will enjoy it!
