ECFA will turn Taiwan into Tibet



ECFA如何賣台

健次

台灣和中國簽訂ECFA(經濟合作架構協議)以後,根據世界貿易組織規範,十年之內必須簽訂「自由貿易協定」(以下簡稱FTA)。FTA除了關稅互免,更重要的,它也包括服務業的互相開放。服務業包括零售、批發、餐飲、旅遊、飯店、娛樂、媒體、銀行、保險、通訊、運輸、醫療、教育、顧問、中介、以及各種「師」字輩專業人員。這意味著中國服務業人口大量移入台灣。

因此,FTA簽訂後,等於實質開放陸勞;台灣除了充滿中國的資本,也將充滿中國的公民。台灣與中國在實質上直接跳進「共同市場」的經濟整合階段,成為名副其實的「一中共同市場」

「一中共同市場」和歐盟主要差異有四:一、歐盟會員國相互承認主權;中國視台灣為其領土;二、歐盟防禦一致;中國飛彈對準台灣;三、歐盟主要國家大小相當,沒有國家可以獨斷;台灣、中國小大懸殊,「一中市場」將由中國獨裁;四、歐盟都是民主國家;中共卻是以黨領政的獨裁政權。走資本主義路線以後,中共持續地透過其對中國政府、法律、司法的控制,介入市場、主導利益分配、指揮企業,並透過企業控制媒體、輿論,達成政治目的。

昔日秦始皇為了統治方便,有「遷富豪」之舉,以斷其本土力量。今日ECFA與FTA不只將造成台商遷中、中資入台,也將造成基層台灣勞動人口的大量移出,中國人規模移入的巨大變化。在台的中國人與利益團體,肯定將是一個不可忽視的力量,甚至在中共的主導下,變成一股關鍵的主導力量,一如中國漢人之於圖博(西藏)、東突厥(新疆)。

透過「一中共同市場」政策的主導權,中國可以很容易的利用其企業掌控體系,影響台灣企業的利益、號令台灣商人、企業、媒體,分別製造寒蟬與西瓜效應、控制輿論、左右百姓視聽,並進而操縱台灣的各級選舉、指揮台灣政客附和中國的對台政策,真正做到不費一兵一卒,併吞台灣的目的。

ECFA的重點不在資本家或勞工階級誰受益、誰受害。ECFA是對一中市場、對一個中華人民共和國的承諾。它是台灣的賣身契。

ECFA just a step to annexing Taiwan

After Taiwan and China sign an economic cooperation and framework agreement (ECFA), WTO regulations require that a free-trade agreement (FTA) be signed within 10 years.

In addition to tariff exemptions, an FTA requires the signatories to deregulate their service industries, including the retail, wholesale, food and beverage, tourism, hotel, entertainment, media, bank, insurance, communications, transport, health, education, consulting and brokerage industries. This could give rise to an influx of Chinese service industry manpower in Taiwan.

In short, the signing of an FTA will mean a substantial opening up of Taiwan to the Chinese labor market. In addition to the inflow of Chinese capital, Chinese workers will also flood Taiwan. Taiwan and China will, in practice, move to the
common market stage of economic integration and form a one China common market.

There are four main differences between a common Chinese market and the EU. EU member states recognize each other
s sovereignty, while China sees Taiwan as part of its national territory; EU states have a common defense policy, while China has missiles pointed at Taiwan; key EU member states are of approximate size and no country can monopolize the organization, while China is much bigger than Taiwan and will dominate a common Chinese market; and the EU is made up of democratic states, while China is a dictatorship where the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is the government.

After adopting capitalism, the CCP has perpetuated its control of the Chinese government, legislation and judiciary, interferes with markets, leads the distribution of benefits and directs corporations, and then uses corporate control to direct media and public opinion in order to achieve its political goals.

To simplify his rule, the Qin (
) emperor relocated the rich and powerful to undermine their power base. Today, an ECFA and an FTA will push Taiwanese businesspeople to move to China and usher in Chinese capital to Taiwan. These agreements will also introduce significant change, causing a great outflow of Taiwanese labor and a large-scale invasion of Chinese. Chinese and Chinese interest groups in Taiwan are sure to become a force to be reckoned with, and under the CCPs direction, they will become the key force just as they are in Tibet and Xinjiang.

With the power to direct the common Chinese market, it will be easy for China to use its control over businesses to influence the interests of Taiwanese corporations and order around Taiwanese businesspeople, enterprises and media around until they are scared into silence, thus restricting freedom of expression and dissemination of public information. The next step will be to control Taiwan
s elections at all levels and to direct Taiwanese politicians toward emulating Chinas Taiwan policy. This is how they will annex Taiwan without wasting the life of a single soldier.

The main point of the ECFA is not capitalism or the best interests of the working class. ECFA is but another name for the promise of a common Chinese market and one China. It is a contract to sell Taiwan.
