【英傑之後你要知道的名字：曉雅】

這個夏天開始，AIT台北辦事處即將迎來新任處長： #孫曉雅 (Sandra Oudkirk)

孫候任處長一直是 #台灣的長期友人。2019年曾來台灣召開首屆台美 #太平洋對話 並在 #玉山論壇 做專題演講；2020年她與外交部共同主持 #太平洋防疫援助線上對話；今年則出席 #台美在太平洋島國夥伴關係 線上公開座談會。

曉雅一直都在，未來更會與我們並肩同行。

孫候任處長是資深外交官，1990年曾派駐台灣，目前是國務院亞太局主管澳紐暨太平洋事務副助卿兼亞太經濟合作 (APEC)資深官員，對 #鞏固太平洋邦交 及 #參與APEC 等議題與我們互動密切。

在台美友好的堅實基礎上，外交部竭誠歡迎並期待孫候任處長持續與台灣密切合作。

MOFA welcomes the appointment of Ms. Sandra Oudkirk as AIT Director. She is no stranger to #Taiwan, having previously been posted in #Taipei and having co-hosted the Pacific Island Dialogue here in October 2019, as well as speaking at the 2020 Yushan Forum.

With a career spanning 30 years in the #US Foreign Service, Director Oudkirk has been serving as the US Senior Official for APEC at the Bureau of East Asian and Pacific Affairs and as Deputy Assistant Secretary for Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific Islands since May 2019.

As a long-standing friend to Taiwan and with a profound understanding of the issues undergirding the Taiwan-US relationship, we hope her term as director will bring about further fruitful cooperation built on the foundation laid by her predecessor Director Brent Christensen.

【外交部 Dr. Wu 中興大學開課啦👨‍🏫】

#外交部 吳部長3月26日應 國立中興大學法政學院邀請，參與10周年系列演講「法政論壇」，以 #台美關係與外交工作經驗談 為題，向校內師生演講。

吳部長金句不斷，就讓我們一同來看看吧❗️

📗外交策略：廣交朋友

吳部長提到，台灣外交的挑戰，尤其是軍事威脅、外交空間的壓縮、國內穩定安全的考量，最大的挑戰還是來自對岸，因此外交工作最重要的目標，就是結交更多的好朋友，透過結合 #友邦 及 #理念相近 的國家，與 #美國🇺🇸 #日本🇯🇵 #歐盟🇪🇺 #澳洲🇦🇺 #紐西蘭🇳🇿，以及 #加拿大🇨🇦等國家，積極努力，開拓國家間信賴關係。

📗互信基礎，得來不易

經過4-5年的努力，可以看到我國與美國、歐洲國家關係有著長足的進展，但是這樣的互信基礎，得來不易，也因為如此，我們與國際政要高層的對話，不應拿來媒體炒作，要真正談出成果時，讓民眾知道外交部真的讚👊。

📗台美合作，日益密切

台灣與美國近年來透過 #台美教育合作倡議 建立的華語教育的溝通平台，所以我們與哈佛大學簽約，並且邀請政界人士來台學習華語，另外透過 #台美經濟繁榮夥伴對話 深化經濟合作關係，以及 #全球合作暨訓練架構 (GCTF)使得台灣成為國際間 #非傳統安全 重要的核心。

📗爭取瞭解，獲得支持

沒有一個國家有義務支持台灣，我們必須主動積極去說服國際社會，台灣是可以信任的好夥伴，以及台灣對國際社會是正面的貢獻。並且要讓國際社會瞭解台灣身處對抗 #威權主義 擴張的第一線，要是失去台灣，就是失去重要的民主堡壘。

📌美國拜登總統上任之前，美國這樣稱呼我們
🔸Democratic success story 民主成功的故事
🔸A reliable partner 一個可信賴的夥伴
🔸A force for good in the world 世界良善的力量

📌拜登政府上任後，美國這樣形容我們
🔸A leading democracy 民主的領頭羊
🔸A critical economic and security partner 關鍵經濟和安全夥伴

除了外交部的努力，也需要台灣社會共同認知，才有今天的成果，也鼓勵參與演講的同學們，未來加入外交部的行列！

#部長說跟外館時差關係外交部常常加班
#加班啦哪次不加班

MOFA’s Dr Joseph Wu was in session yesterday, giving a talk on his experiences of diplomatic efforts in the #Taiwan-#US relationship on invitation from National Chung Hsing University in a series of lectures held to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the founding of the university’s College of Law and Politics. We’ve summarized some of the highlights for you below!

🔹Diplomatic Strategies: Make a lot of friends.

The biggest challenges for Taiwan in its diplomacy, according to Minister Wu, are those brought by the cross-strait issue, specifically the military threat to Taiwan, the attempt to shut down Taiwan’s opportunities for international diplomacy, and domestic security concerns. For this reason, one of the biggest objectives of Taiwan’s diplomatic strategy has been to make a broad range of good friends, building trust with diplomatic allies and like-minded countries and regions, such as the US, Japan, the EU, Australia, New Zealand and Canada.

🔹Building hard-won trust:

After 4-5 years of effort, we’ve seen significant progress in our relationship with the US and European countries, but this foundation of trust was hard won, and because of this, our discussions with top-ranking foreign leaders should not be taken as media fodder so that real results can be derived from these discussions. That way, the public can be reassured that the ministry is doing its job well.

🔹Ever-closer ties in Taiwan-US cooperation:

Through the Taiwan-US Education Initiative we’ve established a communication mechanism for Mandarin education programs, signed an agreement with Harvard University, and invited many figures from the political world to study Mandarin in Taiwan. Through the Taiwan-US Economic Prosperity Partnership Dialogue, we’ve also strengthened our economic cooperation, and the Global Cooperation and Training Framework has transformed Taiwan into a hub for the management of non-traditional security issues.

🔹Seeking understanding and gathering support:

No country has a duty to help Taiwan, so we must be proactive in convincing the international community that Taiwan is a trustworthy partner and that it has a positive contribution to make within this international community.
We must also get the international community to understand that Taiwan is on the front line in the fight against authoritarian expansionism, and that if Taiwan is lost, an important #BeaconOfDemocracy is lost with it.

Before US President Joe Biden took office, the US referred to Taiwan as a “democratic success story”, “a reliable partner” and “a force for good in the world.”

Since President Biden took office, the US has referred to Taiwan as “a leading democracy” and “a critical economic and security partner.”

In closing, Minister Wu stated that the successes achieved are not solely a result of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ efforts, but also of a common belief held by society in Taiwan, and he encouraged the students at the talk to join the ministry’s ranks in the future.

第一個單字是 extramarital affair、e-x-t-r-a-m-a-r-i-t-a-l 空格 a-f-f-a-i-r、 extramarital affair 婚外情，例句是：Adultery decriminalization does not mean that people are encouraged to have extramarital affairs.

通姦除罪化，以後要告，用民法吧！很多人聽到通姦除罪化，嚇瘋，覺得全台灣都要瘋狂搞婚外情了！遇到這種嚇壞的人，記得輕聲跟他說：「親愛的，我們還有民法啊～」 婚外情就是 extramarital affair。

第二個單字是 signal、s-i-g-n-a-l、signal 表示，例句是：Trump signals US exit from the WHO.

美國是 WHO 的最大金主，結果「真心換絕情」，WHO 跟中國兩相好，所以說，川普十分北宋，要退出 WHO！川普「表示」美國將退出組織，這個「表示」就是 signal。

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-52862588

第三個單字是 pertain to、p-e-r-t-a-i-n 空格 t-o、pertain to 直接相關，例句是：These actions pertain to the troubling situations in Hong Kong.

中國強推香港國安法，美國要取消香港的「特殊待遇」。

你想想，國安法一通過，香港完完全全就是中國的一部分。跟香港相處，就是跟中國互動，必須小心謹慎。所以，美國覺得，要提高香港關稅、增加旅遊限制等等。美國這些措施，跟國安法直接相關，而直接相關就是 pertain to。

第四個單字是 soil、s-o-i-l、soil 國土，例句是：For the first time in history, NASA astronauts have launched from American soil in a commercially built and operated American crew spacecraft.

美國太空總署第一次跟民營企業合作，把太空人送上外太空～而且還是在美國國土上發射火箭喔！美國過去幾年發射火箭，其實非常依賴俄羅斯，很意外吧！所以，這次的成功，代表美國可以獨立一點了，靠自己在國土上發射火箭，國土就是 soil。

最後一個單字是 in all likelihood、i-n 空格 a-l-l 空格 l-i-k-e-l-i-h-o-o-d、in all likelihood，很有可能，例句是：In all likelihood, New Zealand‘s population has reached 5 million because of the pandemic.

紐西蘭人口增加到 5 百萬，「很有可能」是因為，他們的防疫好成績哦！紐西蘭現在很安全嘛，沒什麼病毒，很多國民就逃回紐西蘭避難，還有啊，待在紐西蘭的外國人，也不會想乾淨安全的紐西蘭，人口就這樣增加了。「很有可能」，就是 in all likelihood。

https://www.smh.com.au/world/oceania/pandemic-seen-pushing-new-zealand-population-up-to-five-million-20200518-p54tyj.html

On Taiwan Hashtag hosted by Ross Feingold, we discuss President Tsai
Ing-wen’s national day speech. Why did President Tsai mention the
Republic of China (ROC) so many times? Why was “One Country, Two
Systems” and a discussion about Hong Kong part of the speech? Earlier in
the week, Sandra Oudkirk, U.S. Senior Official for APEC and Deputy
Assistant Secretary for Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific Islands
attended a forum on Taiwan’s role in the Pacific Islands, despite
Solomon Islands and Kiribati recent decision to derecognize the Republic
of China (Taiwan) and to recognize the People’s Republic of China. Also
visiting Taiwan last week were former Canadian prime minister Stephen
Harper and former White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders, and Senator Ted
Cruz (Republican - Texas). Why were these conservative politicians
invited to Taiwan by the liberal Democratic Progressive Party? Why were
Harper and Sanders attending a forum on Taiwan’s relations with
countries in South and Southeast Asia? Watch this edition of Taiwan
