荷蘭外交大臣就1947年印尼屠殺致歉
Dutch Foreign Minister apologizes for 1947 Indonesian massacre
http://dw.com/p/1IK39 德國之聲 2016年3月25日
荷蘭外交大臣昆德斯造訪了一座在1947年遭荷軍殺害400人的印尼村莊，此為2011年荷蘭
正式就此事致歉後，首度有該國高官前去訪問。
Dutch Foreign Minister Bert Koenders has visited an Indonesian village where
over 400 people were executed by Dutch troops in 1947. It's the first visit by
a senior Dutch official since a formal apology in 2011.
昆德斯外相出訪這座荷蘭前殖民地，於雅加達會見印尼外長勒特諾，並在星期五參訪西
爪哇的拉哇格德村（現名巴隆薩利）紀念碑，屠殺即在當地發生。
On an official visit to the former Dutch colony where he met his Indonesian
counterpart Retno Marsudi in Jakarta, Dutch Foreign Minister Bert Koenders
spent part of Friday visiting a memorial in the village of Rawagede (now
Balongsari) in West Java, where the massacre took place.
昆德斯表示：「那時的悲劇是我們歷史上黑暗的一頁」「我們已承認犯下錯誤、慘事也
已發生，荷蘭政府正是因此道歉的。我希望這也能促成進一步的和解」。
"The tragedy of that time is a black page in our history," Koenders said. "We
have acknowledged that mistakes were made and that terrible things have
happened. That is why the Dutch government has apologized. I hope that this
also contributes to further reconciliation," Koenders said.
英語翻譯：昆德斯在拉哇格德的埋葬場進行悼念。他稱「我們需要誠實看待過往」
English translation: Koenders commemorates at the burial site in Rawagede: "We
need to look honestly at the past," he said.
面對過往
Facing the past
昆德斯於星期四在雅加達向學生們表示，印尼與荷蘭要勇敢面對兩國共同昔日中的艱困
時期和事件，以在未來一起前進。
Indonesia and the Netherlands must have the courage to confront the difficult
periods and events in their common past to be able to move forward together,
Koenders told students in Jakarta Thursday.
昆德斯說「1945年8月17日印尼共和國誕生後，我們經歷了痛苦的分離，暴力給這段過程
留下刻痕」「1947年的派兵讓荷蘭站到歷史上錯誤的一方」。
"After the birth of the Republik Indonesia on August 17, 1945, we experienced a
painful separation, a process marked by terrible violence," Koenders said. "The
deployment of military force in 1947 put the Netherlands on the wrong side of
history."
一甲子過後
60 years on
1947年內及該年之後不久，均無犯罪調查展開，儘管1948年的聯合國報告書中稱這些殺
戮「蓄意且無情」。10名屠殺倖存者在2008年正式宣稱荷蘭對此負有責任，並在2009年
12月決定將該國告上法院。
No criminal investigation was started at or soon after 1947, even though a UN
report published in 1948 called the killings "deliberate and merciless."
Ten survivors of the massacre officially held the Netherlands responsible for
the massacre in 2008 and in December 2009 decided to sue the Dutch state in
court.
7名寡婦、1名生還者和另一位寡婦的女兒為了屠殺一事而共同向荷蘭政府索賠，海牙的
民事法庭在2011年9月判決荷蘭政府支付每人2萬歐元。
A civil court in The Hague ruled in September 2011 that the Dutch government
pay 20,000 euros ($22,300) each to seven widows, one survivor and a daughter
of another widow, who had collectively sought compensation from the Dutch
government over the massacre.
在向荷蘭政府索賠的7位屠殺罹難者遺孀中，至今僅有3人在世。
Only three of the seven widows of men killed in the massacre who had sought
compensation from the Dutch government are still alive today.
英語翻譯：昆德斯在拉哇格德向遺孀表示慰問，他表示「我希望這能促成和解」
English translation: Koenders expresses sympathy to widows in Rawagede: "I hope
that this contributes towards reconciliation," he said.
荷蘭統治的混亂尾聲
A messy end to Dutch rule
拉哇格德屠殺是在「成果行動」期間的1947年12月9日由皇家荷屬東印度軍犯下，當時荷
蘭正在該國的叢林裡與獨立運動對戰。
The Rawagede massacre was committed by Royal Netherlands East Indies Army on 9
December 1947 in the village of Rawagede during Operatie Product, as Holland
was fighting an independence movement in the jungles of the country.
派到東印度群島的部隊是要預防追求獨立的印尼共和軍及民兵殺害荷蘭人、歐亞混血者
及華人。
The forces had been deployed in the East Indies to intervene to prevent
massacres of Dutch, Eurasian and Chinese by Indonesia's Republican Army and
Indonesian militia Bersiap seeking independence.
當村民拒絕說出印尼獨立派戰士盧卡斯·庫斯塔里奧的藏身之處後，全村的男子（大多
數估計數據約431人）遭到殺害。
Almost all the men from the village, 431 according to most estimates, were
killed after the villagers refused to say where the Indonesian independence
fighter Lukas Kustario was hiding.
2013年9月，荷蘭政府還向1946─47年間荷軍在南蘇拉威西處決之數千名男子的遺孀、遺
族表示歉意。
In September 2013, the Dutch government also apologized to widows and families
of thousands of men who were executed by Dutch troops in South Sulawesi in
1946-47.
