India and Pakistan Open Kashmir Trade Route NEW DELHI — After more than 60 years, trade opened Tuesday across the de facto border dividing the Indian and Pakistani parts of the disputed region of Kashmir. 這個星期四，在經過了60年後，商業的力量重開了喀什米爾的貿易通路， 即便這就是在印巴兩國爭議的邊界地區─喀什米爾。 Sixteen Indian trucks, loaded mostly with apples and walnuts, rumbled across the border on Tuesday morning, said Pawan Kotwal, the commerce secretary for Indian-administered Kashmir. Trucks from Pakistan were expected to make the reverse trip later, most likely bearing rice and raisins. Trade is initially limited to 21 approved items and two days a week. 印度管理喀什米爾的商業長官，Pawan Kotwal說當天早上，十六輛印度大卡車， 最主要是載著蘋果及胡桃，吵吵鬧鬧的經過了邊界。 從巴基斯坦來的卡車希望在稍晚的回程中，穫得稻米及葡萄乾。 商業行為最初被限制在一週兩天及交易21項許可的物品。 Nevertheless, on their long journey of rivalry and reconciliation, the reopening of the trade route represents a breakthrough for India and Pakistan, especially because it follows fresh acrimony. After four years of relative peace, the dividing Line of Control this year was again the scene of gunfire as India once more accused Pakistan of allowing militants to sneak across the border. 在他們充滿爭議及調停的漫長旅途上，重開貿易道路代表印巴兩國之間將會有突破 僵局的機會，但是縱使如此，它也帶來了新的爭議。 在經過了四年相對的和平後，印度再一次控訴巴基斯坦允許好戰份子鬼祟的偷渡過邊界。 http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/22/world/asia/22kashmir.html?ref=asia 紐時 煩請注意附上原稿來源 -- 好...好冷 英雄，是幹的... --
