Clashes as Taiwan students storm government HQ 新聞標題: 台灣學生佔領行政院造成衝突 Taiwanese police have clashed with hundreds of students who occupied government headquarters to protest at a trade deal with China. 台灣警察驅離因與服貿而佔領立法院的數百名學生。 Police used water cannon and dragged out students one by one, clearing the building by dawn on Monday. 星期一凌晨，警方使用灑水車驅離學生並將學生一個一個拉出行政院。 Close to 60 people were arrested and more than 100 hurt, reports said. 據媒體指出，將近六十人遭到逮捕，同時有超過一百人受傷。 The protesters say the agreement with China would hurt Taiwan's economy and leave it vulnerable to pressure from Beijing. 抗議者指出與中國間的貿易協定會傷害台灣經濟，並造成對中國經濟的依賴。 Another group of students and activists have occupied Taiwan's parliament since early last week. 另一群學生於上周起佔領了台灣的立法院。 The BBC's Cindy Sui in Taipei says the students wants more scrutiny over all future dealings with China, including any trade agreements. BBC駐台記者表示，學生們希望未來台灣與中國間的任何協議皆需要更全面的審核， 當然也包括任何的貿易協定。 They also want the current deal - which would allow the two sides to invest more freely in each other's services markets - to be scrapped. 學生們同時希望能廢棄目前的服貿協議。 The governing Kuomintang party says it is determined to ratify the deal with Beijing, which it says will boost the economy and create jobs. 國民黨表示已經正式批准與北京間的協議，並且聲稱此協議會活絡經濟並創造就業機會。 China formally regards Taiwan as a part of its territory, despite the island governing itself for six decades. 儘管台灣已自主統治了約60餘年，中國仍認為台灣是其領土的一部份。 The protests began early last week after ruling party MPs said a joint committee had completed its review of the pact, which was signed in June 2013 but has not yet been ratified by MPs. 在上週執政黨表示於去年六月起已簽屬服貿，並完成相關審議， 但未正式被院會批准後，民眾便開始上街頭抗議。 Students broke into the legislature late on Tuesday and have since defied police efforts to evict them, using barricades made of furniture. 學生們於上周二闖入立法院，並且利用院內家具為屏障來阻擋警方的驅趕。 On Friday thousands of people rallied to support the students, and the the opposition Democratic Progressive Party has also backed them. 數以千計的民眾於上周五走上街頭表達對學運的支持， 同時間民進黨也跳出來支持民眾抗爭。 On Sunday, President Ma Ying-jeou said that the occupation of parliament broke the law, adding: "I must say that [the pact] is completely for the sake of Taiwan's economic future." 馬英九於本周日表示學生佔領立法院是違法的， 並且認為簽訂服貿是為了提升台灣經濟競爭力著想。 Late on Sunday, some protesters pushed past riot police to storm the government headquarters, pulling down barbed wire and using ladders to access second-floor offices. 週日晚間，部分抗議民眾與警方發生推擠，並將拒馬推倒、利用鐵梯進入行政院二樓。 Violent clashes erupted as police moved to restore order. 在警方被要求維護現場秩序時也發生了暴力衝突。 China is Taiwan's biggest trading partner and in recent years ties between the two have improved. 由於兩岸關係的改善，近年來中國已成為台灣最大的貿易夥伴。 The two sides split at the end of the Chinese civil war in 1949. 在1949年的國共內戰後，兩岸因而分裂。 Earlier this year, however, they held their first direct government-to-government talks. In the past, all talks have gone via quasi-official organisations. 今年初兩岸雙方進行了第一次官方正式直接對話，在過往兩岸僅透過半官方機構互動。 They have also signed several trade and investment agreements in recent years - but some fear greater economic integration with China could threaten Taiwan. 近年來兩岸也簽署了許多貿易與投資協議， 但也引起部分民眾擔憂向中國過度靠攏會傷害台灣經濟自主性。 -- http://tinyurl.com/lo8cztc 這篇BBC報導中有放上部分佔領行政院的照片，供大家參考， 大家加油，台灣加油!! --
