[HSR]高鐵全線通車-高鐵南港站啟用



7月1日高鐵南港站啟用,也是台灣高鐵設站計畫中,全線通車的日子。包含去年通車苗栗、彰化、雲林和剛通車的南港,現在高鐵全線總計有12站。原本高鐵並無在南港設站的計畫,北部的終點站就是台北站。但是高鐵通車後發現台北站的車站太小,只有兩島四股,不利列車調度。而且台北站的月台偏小,沒有足夠的面積容納大批等待的乘客。南港原本只是高鐵列車的整備基地,經過評估之後,決定設立南港站。南港站在台鐵的南港專案中改建,改建之後,南港站成為台灣最大的車站,當初已經規劃好可以容納眾多的乘客,期待可以將台北東區的乘客分流至南港站,減輕台北站的負擔。未來如果台鐵的北宜新線通車(註:如果真的有那麼一天的話),南港是北宜新線的始發站。高鐵南港站配置三島六股,而且月台夠大,除了可以更靈活調度列車,也期待南港未來成為高鐵主力車站之一。

Taiwan accidentally launches missile toward China, kills fishing boat captain(台灣朝著中國方向誤射飛彈,造成一名漁船船長身亡)

(CNN)A Taiwan warship mistakenly launched a supersonic "aircraft carrier killer" missile toward China Friday, hitting a fishing boat and killing the boat's captain in an incident China called "a serious matter."
A spokesman for Taiwan's Ministry of National Defense apologized on behalf of the military.

台灣在星期五時誤射一枚號稱船艦殺手的超音速飛彈,擊中了一艘漁船並造成船長身亡,中國稱此事件 「影響非常嚴重 」。而台灣國防部發言人代表國軍道歉。

"The Ministry of National Defense sincerely apologizes for the incident that caused the death of the captain (of the boat) and injured other crew members," Maj. Gen. Chen Chung-Chi said in a news conference. The ministry has also asked the Navy to provide assistance and compensation to the family of the victims.
少將陳中吉在記者會中表示「國防部誠摯地對死亡的船長和受傷的船員道歉」同時國防部亦要求海軍對受害者家屬提供協助與補償

The deceased captain has been identified as Huang Wen-Chung, the defense ministry confirmed, according to Taiwan Focus, the English-language service of state-run Central News Agency.
Chung-Chi said the missile, the "Hsiung Feng III," ripped through the fishing boat but did not explode.
An investigation into the incident has begun, Chung-Chi added.

根據台灣國家媒體中央社英語報導Taiwan Focus,國防部確認身亡的船長叫做黃文忠。
陳中吉表示雄三飛彈直接貫穿漁船但未爆炸,已經展開調查行動。

China's top official in charge of Taiwan policy, Zhang Zhijun, said Friday that Taiwan must provide a "responsible explanation" for the launch of the missile, calling it a "serious matter."
Relations between Taiwan -- officially the Republic of China -- and the People's Republic of China have been increasingly tense since the landslide election of Tsai Ing-wen, whose party has traditionally leaned in favor of formal independence from China.

中國國台辦主任張志軍表示稱此事件「影響非常嚴重 」,要求台灣對星期五飛彈發射事件給個「負責任的交代 」
自從傾向台灣獨立的蔡英文當選總統後,兩岸關係,台灣(或者說正式名稱中華民國)與中國(中華人民共和國)的關係日益緊張
