Thank you very much.? And thank you, Charles, for that kind introduction.? I’m delighted to be here at the East-West Center in a new year that marks your 50th anniversary on this beautiful campus in this most extraordinary place.? It is also a great pleasure to see so many friends in the audience.? I am delighted to just recognize, obviously, Governor Lingle and Mayor Hannemann, Senator Akaka, my colleague in the Senate, Congressman Abercrombie, Hawaii Senate President Hanabusa, Japan’s ambassador to the United States Ambassador Fujisaki and America’s ambassador to Japan Ambassador Roos.? I’m also delighted to see some longtime friends who Bill and I served with when they served this state, certainly, former Governor John Waihee and Lynne, and former Governor Ariyoshi and Jean. I’m also aware that we have consul generals for Australia, Japan, the Philippines, Micronesia and Marshall Islands, and of course, President Greenwood of this university.? And to all who serve on this board, obviously, if you want a good introduction, come to a place where you appoint a third of the board.? (Laughter.)? Charles fulfilled that.? I’m also honored that senior leadership of Pacific Command are here.? I had a very productive meeting with them earlier.? And Assistant Secretary Kurt Campbell, who has the enviable job that he thanks me for every day of overseeing our relations throughout the Asia Pacific.
非常感謝大家。查爾斯,感謝你的熱情介紹。我很高興能在“東西方中心”進(jìn)入50周年之際來到這里,來到這所坐落在這個(gè)最不一般的地方的美麗校園??吹接羞@么多朋友在座,也令我萬分高興。我高興地看到林格州長(zhǎng)和韓納曼市長(zhǎng),我在參議院的同事阿卡卡參議員,阿伯克隆比眾議員,夏威夷州參議院主席Hanabusa女士,日本駐美國(guó)大使藤崎和美國(guó)駐日本大使羅斯。我還高興地看到一些比爾和我曾有幸與之共事的為這個(gè)州效過力的老朋友們,其中當(dāng)然包括前州長(zhǎng)約翰?威希和夫人林恩,以及前州長(zhǎng)有吉良一和夫人瓊。我也知道在座的還有澳大利亞、日本、菲律賓、密克羅尼西亞和馬歇爾群島的總領(lǐng)事,當(dāng)然還有這所大學(xué)的校長(zhǎng)格林伍德。各位理事會(huì)成員,如果你想得到熱情洋溢的介紹,一定要到這樣一個(gè)三分之一的成員都由你指定的地方來。(笑聲)查爾斯完成了這個(gè)任務(wù)。太平洋司令部的高級(jí)指揮官今天在座,令我感到榮幸。我剛同他們進(jìn)行了卓有成效的會(huì)晤。還有助理國(guó)務(wù)卿庫爾特?坎貝爾,他主管我們同整個(gè)亞太地區(qū)的關(guān)系,每天都要感謝我給了他這個(gè)美差。

Before I begin with this critically important subject about our future in Asia, I want to just say a few words about developments in Haiti.? We are still gathering information about this catastrophic earthquake, the point of impact, its effect on the people of Haiti.? The United States is offering our full assistance to Haiti and to others in the region.? We will be providing both civilian and military disaster relief and humanitarian assistance.? And our prayers are with the people who have suffered, their families, and their loved ones.
在我開始闡述這個(gè)關(guān)于我們?cè)趤喼薜那熬暗臉O其重要的主題之前,我想就海地的情況簡(jiǎn)單說幾句。我們正在收集有關(guān)這次嚴(yán)重震災(zāi)、地震位置以及海地人民受災(zāi)情況的信息。美國(guó)正在向海地和該地區(qū)其他地方全力提供援助。我們將調(diào)動(dòng)軍事和民間力量,提供救災(zāi)及人道援助。我們?yōu)槭転?zāi)民眾、他們的家人和親朋好友祈禱。
It is hard to even imagine how different the region we’re talking about today was back in 1959 when Lyndon Johnson proposed creating an institution where thinkers from East and West could come together.? And during the five decades since the Center opened, no region has undergone a more dramatic transformation.? This progress is the product of hard work and ingenuity multiplied across billions of individual lives.? And it has been sustained by the engagement, security and assistance provided by the United States.
自1959年林登?約翰遜建議創(chuàng)立一個(gè)匯集東西方思想家的機(jī)構(gòu)以來,我們今天要談的這個(gè)地區(qū)所發(fā)生的巨變令人難以想見。在貴中心成立以來的50年中,其他任何一個(gè)地區(qū)的變化都無法與這個(gè)地區(qū)相比。這種進(jìn)步是數(shù)十億人勤奮努力和創(chuàng)新的結(jié)晶。美國(guó)積極接觸、保障安全和提供援助的努力也使這種進(jìn)步得以持續(xù)。
The East-West Center has been part of this sea change, helping to shape ideas and train experts, including one young woman who became a pioneer in microfinance and rural economic development and the mother of our President.? And I thank all of you for bringing greater awareness and understanding to the economic, political, and security issues that dominate the region and the world today.
“東西方中心”是這個(gè)巨變中的一員,促成觀念的形成并幫助培訓(xùn)專家,其中包括率先倡導(dǎo)微型貸款和農(nóng)村經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展的一位年輕女性,她就是我們總統(tǒng)的母親。我要感謝你們所有人的努力,你們提高了對(duì)這個(gè)地區(qū)及全世界當(dāng)今面臨的主要經(jīng)濟(jì)、政治和安全問題的認(rèn)識(shí)和理解。
By now — almost a year into the new Administration — it should be clear that the Asia-Pacific relationship is a priority of the United States.? President Obama spent his formative years here in Hawaii and in Indonesia.? His world view reflects his appreciation of — and respect for — Asia and its people.? I am deeply committed to strengthening our ties across the Pacific and throughout Asia. And I know the President is personally looking forward to Honolulu — his hometown — hosting the APEC leaders meeting in 2011.? (Applause.)? Now, I’ve been informed by the congressman, the governor, the mayor and others that the most difficult decision will be figuring out the aloha shirt that will be given to all of the leaders.
至今——新政府上任已接近一年——應(yīng)可明顯看到亞太關(guān)系是美國(guó)的一項(xiàng)重點(diǎn)。奧巴馬總統(tǒng)在夏威夷和印度尼西亞度過了他的童年和少年時(shí)代,他的世界觀反映了他對(duì)亞洲及亞洲人民的了解和尊重。我堅(jiān)信我們應(yīng)當(dāng)加強(qiáng)與太平洋彼岸以及整個(gè)亞洲的關(guān)系。據(jù)我所知,總統(tǒng)本人期盼著2011年的亞太經(jīng)合組織領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人會(huì)議在他的家鄉(xiāng)檀香山召開。(掌聲)你們的國(guó)會(huì)議員、州長(zhǎng)、市長(zhǎng)以及其他人都告訴我,現(xiàn)在最難做的決定是為各國(guó)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人設(shè)計(jì)什么樣的阿羅哈衫。
But for these reasons and more, we began last January to lay the foundation for a revitalized Asia-Pacific relationship.? My first trip as Secretary of State was to Asia — in fact, this will be my fourth to the region in the last eleven months.? President Obama participated in the APEC Summit in Singapore as well as visiting China, Japan, and South Korea; we supported the creation of a regular G-20 leaders summit with strong Asian participation reflecting the new global balance of financial and political power; we held the first ever U.S.-ASEAN summit; we signed the Guam International Agreement that helps sustain a strong U.S. military presence in the region; and we signed the ASEAN Treaty of Amity and Cooperation.? And it was no accident that the first state visit hosted by President and Mrs. Obama was for an Asian leader, Indian Prime Minister Singh.
由于這些原因以及更多的原因,我們從去年一月開始為重振亞太關(guān)系打基礎(chǔ)。我就任國(guó)務(wù)卿后第一次出訪就是前往亞洲——事實(shí)上,這次將是我在過去十一個(gè)月中第四次訪問該地區(qū)。奧巴馬總統(tǒng)出席了在新加坡舉行的亞太經(jīng)合組織峰會(huì),并訪問了中國(guó)、日本和韓國(guó);我們支持定期舉行20國(guó)集團(tuán)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人峰會(huì),并且主張亞洲強(qiáng)有力的參與,以反映全球金融和政治力量的新格局;我們舉行了首屆美國(guó)-東盟峰會(huì);我們簽署了有助于美國(guó)在該地區(qū)保持強(qiáng)大軍事部署的《關(guān)島國(guó)際協(xié)議》;我們還簽署了《東南亞國(guó)家聯(lián)盟友好合作條約》。奧巴馬總統(tǒng)和夫人接待的第一位來訪的外國(guó)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人是來自亞洲的印度總理辛格,這并非巧合。
So we are working to deepen our historic ties, build new partnerships, work with existing multilateral organizations to pursue shared interests, and reach beyond governments to engage directly with people in every corner of this vast region.
因此,我們正在努力深化歷史上已有的關(guān)系,建立新的伙伴關(guān)系,與現(xiàn)有的多邊組織為尋求共同利益進(jìn)行合作,并在與各國(guó)政府聯(lián)系之外與這個(gè)廣袤地區(qū)每一個(gè)角落的人民直接接觸。
We start from a simple premise: America’s future is linked to the future of the Asia-Pacific region; and the future of this region depends on America.? The United States has a strong interest in continuing its tradition of economic and strategic leadership, and Asia has a strong interest in the United States remaining a dynamic economic partner and a stabilizing military influence.
我們的出發(fā)點(diǎn)是這樣一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的前提:美國(guó)的前途與亞太地區(qū)的前途緊密相連;而這個(gè)地區(qū)的前途有賴于美國(guó)。美國(guó)十分愿意繼續(xù)發(fā)揮其傳統(tǒng)上的經(jīng)濟(jì)與戰(zhàn)略領(lǐng)導(dǎo)作用,而亞洲也十分愿意美國(guó)繼續(xù)作為一個(gè)充滿活力的經(jīng)濟(jì)伙伴并發(fā)揮有助于穩(wěn)定的軍事影響力。
