英国金融界元老质问港人:没有中国,香港是什么?
原文摘要:“港人要问自己,没有中国,香港是什么?”英国金融界元老灵魂发问
近日,在一场庆祝澳门回归20周年的公开活动中,一位曾在香港生活多年的英国金融界元老仗义执言,反对外部干涉、呼吁止暴制乱,让在座中外宾客无不动容。
这位当场向港人发出“灵魂三连问”的英国老人,就是英国恒安标准人寿保险董事长格雷姆斯通爵士(Sir Gerry Grimstone)。他与中国缘分匪浅,中文名字叫秦智涛,经常往来于两国之间,活跃于中英、中欧经贸合作领域。
他说了句大实话:“Hopes were high and the opportunities available to Hong Kong and Macao were profound. They had the benefits of their two Systems. They could continue with the many aspects that make Hong Kong and Macao such special places but they were also part of the great nation that is China.”
“人们对香港、澳门寄予厚望,两地有着巨大的机遇,享受着‘两制’带来的好处。香港和澳门可以继续享有这些特殊之处,但它们也同为中国这个伟大国家的一部分。”
“The future looked bright. Unfortunately, as far as Hong Kong is concerned, that may no longer be the case.”
“它们原本前景一片光明。可惜,对香港来说,情况可能不再如此。”
“The social problems that Hong Kong has faced over the last six months are destroying the credibility of Hong Kong.”
“香港在过去半年所面对的社会问题,正在摧毁香港的信誉。”
他说:“I find it very sad that some people in Hong Kong do not seem to realise the consequences of what is now happening and that some external people do not understand that their interventions are only making matters worse.”
“我感到非常难过的是,香港有些人似乎没有意识到现在发生的这些事有什么后果,一些外界人士也不明白他们的干预只会让情况变得更糟。”
“Hong Kong people should ask themselves the question ‘what is Hong Kong without China?’”
“香港人应该扪心自问:没有中国,香港是什么?”
