【新唐人2011年5月12日讯】中共中央政治局常委、全国政协主席贾庆林,日前公开表示,为了维持海峡两岸关系,台湾人民必须在未来两次重要的选举中“选对人”。对于贾庆林的这番谈话,评论人士认为,这是中共当局对台湾选举的干涉;中共应该尊重台湾人民的选举自由,否则很可能会适得其反。
《法国国际广播电台》报导,贾庆林日前出席了在四川成都举行的第七届两岸经贸文化论坛,他在与台湾国民党荣誉主席吴伯雄会面时发表了“选对人”的说辞。
贾庆林宣称,台湾今年(2011年)的两场重要选举对两岸关系非常关键;两岸经济合作框架协议(ECFA)是维持两岸关系的重要机制,由谁来执行这项协议很重要。他特别强调:台湾人民要“选对人”。
对此,香港支联会副主席蔡耀昌认为台湾人民有自己的选举自由,他们肯定会去选他们认为“选对的人”,所以从这个角度讲,贾庆林的话说了等于没说;但实际上,贾庆林的话是有“特殊含义”的。
蔡耀昌:“他(贾庆林)讲的,正是他们(中共当局)希望台湾人民去选一下可能跟中共政府能够有’沟通’这方面的这些人吧。但我想,台湾人民他们怎么样选择,他们(中共当局)应该是不要说三道四,因为到底是台湾人民的选举嘛!台湾人民每一个人怎么样选,当然就是他们的自由。”
近年来,大陆两岸经贸合作频繁,经贸规模不断扩大。根据大陆商务部数据,今年(2011年)第一季度,大陆与台湾的总贸易额达到376亿美元,同比上升近20%。台湾从中获得贸易顺差高达200多亿美元。
资深政经评论家林保华:“正常国家都是应该有经贸交流的。问题是:中国的经贸交流背后都有政治动机的,这种交流本身我觉得,都有中共的统战阴谋在里面的。所以我想,中国的这些交流就应该是正常的交流,否则如果带有政治条件,这是损害真正的交流,对两岸之间的关系反而是一种损害,因为带有一种政治因素。”
林保华认为,贾庆林的讲话是在干预台湾的选举、对台湾施加压力,这也是中共对台的一贯态度。他说,贾庆林的这一讲话是在恐吓与威胁台湾人:如果不按照中共的意图行事,中共就会终止给台湾以经济上的“好处”。
早在前年(2009年)年底,中国流亡作家袁红冰出版的《台湾大劫难》畅销台湾。书中披露,中共为达成在2012年前解决台湾问题,多年来积极通过“利益诱惑”来笼络与分化台湾社会,并鼓动台湾民众内斗。
袁红冰说,台湾的自由民主制度已对中国大陆产生示范作用,并成为中共政权最大的威胁,因而中共倾尽全力要摧毁台湾的民主制度,以维持独裁。
而林保华也谈到,此前,中共就曾经多次对台湾选举进行威胁,甚至曾经发射导弹到台湾附近海域,但每次都适得其反。
林保华:“这个本身是因为,中国是一个共产国家、恐怖国家(政权),所以台湾民众才有一种防范心理,连美国都有防这个(中共渗透)心理,这是由中国的国家性质— —共产党一党独裁决定的。”
蔡耀昌强调指出,不管中共如何施压,也改变不了台湾人民的自由选举权利;台湾民众肯定会去推选他们自己认为合适的人选,不会受到中共施压的影响。

China Still Hungry for Taiwan
Jia Qinglin, member of the Standing Committee
of Politburo in the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP)
and the CPPCC National Committee Chairman,
has publicly stated recently that Taiwan people
must “elect the right candidates”
in the next two elections in order to maintain
cross-strait relations.” Commentators believe
this is interference on Taiwan elections by CCP.
China should respect Taiwan’s election freedom,
or otherwise it will be counterproductive.
Radio France Internationale states that Jia Qinglin
recently attended the 7th cross-strait trade
and cultural forum in Chengdu, Sichuan.
He gave the above speech in a meeting
with KMT Honorary Chairman Wu Poh-hsiung.
Jia claimed the two important elections are key
to cross-strait relations; cross-strait
Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA)
is an important mechanism
for maintaining the relationship.
Whoever implements the agreement it is
a very important step. He stressed particularly,
Taiwanese should “elect the right candidates."
Richard Tsoi, Vice President of HK Democratic Party,
said Taiwan people have their own election freedom,
they’ll go to elect whom they think is right;
but actually Jia’s words have “special meanings".
Richard Tsoi: “He (Jia) meant, they (CCP) want us
to elect people with ‘connection’ with the CCP.
Whoever Taiwanese elect, they (China authorities)
shouldn’t make irresponsible remarks, after all
these are elections of the Taiwan’s people!
Taiwanese have freedom on election.”
Lately, cross-strait economic and trade cooperation
had been frequent and expanding.
Mainland Deptartment of Commerce data showed
that in 1Q of 2011, total trade volume reached
USD37.6 billion, up nearly 20%.
Taiwan obtained surplus up to USD20 billion.
Lin Baohua, senior political and economic critic:
“Normally countries have economic
and trade exchanges. But the problem is:
China’s exchanges have political motives.
It is conspiracy of the CCP’s united front.
China should have normal exchanges.
With political conditions it will damage the exchange
and the cross-strait relationship."
Lin Baohua said Jia’s speech was an intervention
of Taiwan’s elections, putting pressure on Taiwan,
which is the CCP’s consistent attitude. He said,
Jia’s speech is to intimidate Taiwan by ceasing
economic “benefits” if Taiwan disobeys the CCP.
In 2009, Yuan Hongbing, a writer in exile, published
“Taiwan’s Disaster" which became a bestseller.
The book revealed the CCP intended to control
Taiwan by 2012. It actively used “temptation"
to win and differentiate Taiwan society,
and to encourage Taiwan internal conflicts.
Yuan Hongbing said Taiwan’s democratic system
set up a model for mainland China
and became the greatest threat to the regime,
so the CCP had done everything
to destroy Taiwan’s democratic system.
Lin Baohua also said the CCP has repeatedly
threatened Taiwan’s elections, even firing missiles
into waters near Taiwan, but each time
these actions caused the opposite effect.
Lin Baohua:"Because China is a communist country,
a terrorist state (regime), Taiwan has prevention
awareness, as well as US. This is due to China’s
national characteristics: one-party dictatorship."
Richard Tsoi emphasized however, that although
the CCP pressures Taiwan, it cannot change
the election freedom in Taiwan. Taiwan people
will definitely elect the right candidate
on their own, not being influenced by the CCP.
