台湾的

I argue in my paper that there are two states of time running through Tsai Ming Liang's movie, What Time is it There, a fluid state symbolized by the prevalence of water in the movie and a static state, symbolized by digital time, also highlighted in the movie: the clepsydra versus digital time in Taiwan is a symptom of Taiwan's particular historical experience of being a state of exception, as Giorgio Agamben would have it.

我在文中的论点为，蔡明亮电影《你那边几点？》全片由两种不同的时间状态贯穿而成，其一为流动的时间，以电影里随处可见的流水作为象徵，另一则是静止的时间状态，作为象徵的是片中亦不断强调突显的数位时间。就台湾的脉络而言，水钟与数位时间所形成的对比，症候式地再现了台湾作为阿冈本所称的「例外状态」特殊的历史经验。

The Switzerland in which I'll be serving is a unique mountainous nation quite different from Taiwan. The character of mountain folk is reserved, whereas the oceanic-island people of Taiwan are situated in a semitropical region, everyone having a more tempestuous nature. From the performance of our legislators you can see at a glance how heated we can become after only a few minutes of work.

我即将到任的瑞士是一个独特的山区国家，和台湾完全不同，山区的民风保守，而台湾的海岛民族因为身处在炎热的亚热带地区，大家脾气都比较暴躁，做事五分钟的热度，从我们的立法委员的表现就可以一目了然。

Standing on the edge of the society, with the voice of a "demon", Wuhe unceasingly issues his ridicule and criticism to the unjustness in the world.

他秉持&邪魔&的巨大能量，保持一种永远的批判立场，对身处其间又游离其外的台湾社会发出孤独而不祥的声音：一方面批判民主时代的不公不义、政治台湾的纷扰不安，一方面嘲讽&多元文化&的虚与委蛇、主流与非主流在大众化时代的合谋演出。

Therefore we must insist that opens, deregulates, the release folk vigor, to display Taiwan's superiority largely; We must guide the enterprise to base Taiwan, the joint Asian and Pacific, the layout whole world; We must assist the laborer to adapt the fast technical vicissitude and the industrial adjustment; We must cultivate us attentively the next generation, lets them have the perfect personality, the citizen accomplishment, the international field of vision with ability which lifelong studies, simultaneously must remove each kind of ideology to the education not, when disturbs.

所以我们要坚持开放、大幅松绑、释放民间的活力、发挥台湾的优势；我们要引导企业立足台湾、联结亚太、布局全球；我们要协助劳工适应快速的科技变迁与产业调整；我们还要用心培育我们的下一代，让他们具有健全人格、公民素养、国际视野与终身学习的能力，同时要排除各种意识形态对教育的不当干扰。

IC industry and TFT-LCD industry are two of the most important industries in Taiwan. It took near half a century for IC industry to reach one trillion NT dollars production value, but it only took over a decade for TFT-LCD industry to reach one trillion NT dollars production value. The TFT-LCD industy of Taiwan has overpassed the Japan which was the first country to commercialize the TFT-LCD product and is competing the No.1 position with Korea.

半导体产业及TFT-LCD产业是目前台湾产值超过兆元的主要产业，半导体产业从引进到现在已近半世纪，花了很长的时间产值才破兆，然而TFT-LCD产业只花了十几年就达到兆元的产值，同时产值超过最先商业化LCD产品的日本，并且於韩国争夺第一的位置，但是从个别公司而言台湾的个别厂商规模相对较小，只有友达光电的规模排入世界第三名。

Intellectuals in taiwan had ever since invested imaginations galore upon "motherland",subsuming their aspirations for the political outlook in the mainland and their hostile sentiment towards the colonial japan.

&祖国&这一词汇是在战后台湾常常被提起的关键词，面对焕然一新的政治体制，台湾的知识分子赋予&祖国&更多的想象，想象中参合了对大陆政治理想的期望和对日本殖民的仇恨情绪。

This paper, based on survey and interview data in addition to secondary sources, will argue that Taiwan's new Buddhist groups (Tzu Chi慈济, Foguangshan佛光山, Fagushan法鼓山, Lingjiushan灵鹫山, Fuzhi福智, and Zhongtai Chansi中台禅寺) not only have a positive effect on community formation by providing venues where like-minded people can get to know each other, the communities created are inclusive, vitiating ethnic/political divisions in Taiwan.

根据调查及访谈的资料再辅以文献材料，本文拟讨论台湾的新兴佛教团体（慈济、佛光山、法鼓山、灵鹫山、福智及中台禅寺）不仅提供志同道合者互相认识的机会，从而有形成同修社群的积极效果，如此形成的社群是具有包容性的，对台湾族群及政治色彩的对立也有中和的效果。

But from the essence of this event, we can find that the event of the debate on the Buddhist doctrine in Taiwan has the same tempo with the Buddhist events in other countries, or even with other non-Buddhist religious events. That is to say, the focus of both the Taiwanese Buddhist event and the global Buddhist academia is the same in nature. It is even exactly the same core question on exploring the truth of the universe in the global philosophical academia.

但是，就事件发生的本质加以考察，则可以发现：发生在台湾的这件佛教法义论辩事件，其实正与全球其他国家的佛教事件，或者其他宗教事件有著相同的脉动；也就是说台湾的佛教事件与全球佛学学术界所探讨的焦点，本质上是相同的，甚至是与全球哲学学术界探讨宇宙真相的核心问题完全相同。

Remembering the period of Taiwan good economy starting from 1960 to 1980, some large-scale iron factories like the East Asia and the Ming Changxing made products of general steel, aluminum alloy and stainless steel and shown up in every large construction projects. Some factories with the best techniques like the Jusin Metal were capable for making large outdoors landscape sculptures of stainless steel for the artistic Master Mr. YuYu Yang. Some factories like the Tungchang Metal kept in small but profitable operation.

记得在台湾经济起飞的50年代至70年代，这些铁工厂从一般的钢件的制作，到铝合金及不锈钢产品的制作，当时大型如东亚不锈钢及明昌兴铝门窗综横在各个营造工地，也有技术精湛如久信金属承接杨英风设计大师不锈钢展示品的制作，或是像东錩金属的小而美经营，而这样的传统铁工厂如今仍遍布在台湾的大街小巷，他们如何能再创造出另一番光景，他们的下一代应何去何从？

Neither the killing of Mr Zarqawi nor any breakthrough on the political front will stop the insurgency and the fratricidal murders in their tracks.
