Authorities here have arrested more than 400 mainland Chinese women who have traveled to give birth in the former British colony in the past year, immigration officials said, underscoring the depth of tensions between mainland Chinese and their southern neighbors over the practice.
香港特區(qū)政府入境事務(wù)處官員稱(chēng)，過(guò)去一年里，有關(guān)部門(mén)已經(jīng)逮捕逾400名赴港產(chǎn)子的內(nèi)地孕婦，凸顯出內(nèi)地與香港居民間因此事造成的緊張關(guān)系所已經(jīng)相當(dāng)嚴(yán)重。
Most of the new mothers were arrested within one to two days of giving birth, and nearly all were sentenced to jail terms of about two months, officials said.
有關(guān)官員稱(chēng)，大多數(shù)新媽媽都在產(chǎn)子一到兩天后被拘捕，幾乎所有人都被判處兩個(gè)月左右的監(jiān)禁。
Giving birth in Hong Kong, which operates under a separate legal system, has emerged in recent years as a popular option for mainland Chinese women seeking access to the city's advanced health and education systems for their children, who gain the automatic right to reside in Hong Kong if they're born there.
香港實(shí)行的是不同于大陸的一套政治制度。近年來(lái)，赴港產(chǎn)子已經(jīng)成為頗受內(nèi)地婦女歡迎的一種選擇。這些婦女希望自己的孩子能夠利用香港先進(jìn)的醫(yī)療衛(wèi)生和教育體系。在香港出生的孩子可以自動(dòng)獲得香港居留權(quán)。
However, 'birth tourists' are bitterly resented by many locals, who argue the women pose a threat to the city's health and education resources. In 2010, among some 88,000 babies born in Hong Kong, about 45% were born to mainland women.
不過(guò)，很多港人對(duì)此類(lèi)“產(chǎn)子游”意見(jiàn)很大。他們認(rèn)為這些婦女對(duì)香港的醫(yī)療衛(wèi)生和教育資源構(gòu)成了威脅。2010年，在香港出生的嬰兒有88,000個(gè)，其中約45%是內(nèi)地孕婦赴港產(chǎn)下的。
This week, the city's Immigration Department said that since last October, roughly 420 pregnant women from the mainland who gave birth in Hong Kong have been prosecuted on charges of overstaying visas.
本周，香港入境事務(wù)處說(shuō)，自去年10月以來(lái)，約有420名從內(nèi)地赴港產(chǎn)子的孕婦因被控簽證逾期而遭起訴。
'To protect social resources [in Hong Kong], I think it's needed,' a department spokesman said of the crackdown.
入境事務(wù)處一位發(fā)言人在談到打擊內(nèi)地孕婦來(lái)港產(chǎn)子一事時(shí)說(shuō)，為了保護(hù)香港的社會(huì)資源，我認(rèn)為這是必需的。
It's not clear whether the prosecutions over the past year represent an increase. Immigration officials said the government only started tracking such cases last year in response to public concern about the issue.
目前尚不清楚過(guò)去一年此類(lèi)檢控是否呈上升趨勢(shì)。入境事務(wù)處官員表示，為了回應(yīng)公眾對(duì)這一問(wèn)題的關(guān)切，特區(qū)政府從去年開(kāi)始追蹤這一現(xiàn)象。
The women weren't arrested until after they gave birth, out of humanitarian considerations, the spokesman said. 'It's not good for pregnant women to stay in prison,' he said, adding that their children could be cared for by relatives until the mothers' sentences were completed.
這位發(fā)言人說(shuō)，出于人道主義考慮，這些婦女在生產(chǎn)后才遭逮捕。在監(jiān)獄服刑對(duì)孕婦不利，并說(shuō)在服刑期間他們的孩子可由親戚照顧，直到刑期結(jié)束。
A spokesman for the city's correctional services department said that babies of prisoners could also stay in the prison with their mothers while they were still breast-feeding. Babies would live with their mothers in dormitory-style wards, with the babies given their own cribs.
香港懲教署的發(fā)言人說(shuō)，由于嬰兒還需哺乳，因此嬰兒可以同他們的母親一道待在監(jiān)獄。嬰兒將和母親一起住在類(lèi)似宿舍的囚房里，監(jiān)獄給嬰兒分配了嬰兒床。
In recent months, immigration authorities have been working closely with their mainland counterparts, accelerating efforts to thwart pregnant mainland women at the border.
近幾個(gè)月來(lái)，特區(qū)政府入境事務(wù)處已與內(nèi)地對(duì)口單位緊密合作，在邊境口岸加大努力阻止內(nèi)地孕婦來(lái)港產(chǎn)子。
Over the past year, the Immigration Department said, 3,500 pregnant mainland women have been barred from trying to enter Hong Kong, a jump of more than 80% from 2011.
入境事務(wù)處表示，在過(guò)去一年，有3,500名內(nèi)地孕婦被禁止進(jìn)入香港，和2011年相比上升了逾80%。
A dozen other mainlanders this year also have been jailed for up to a year for helping to assist mainland women to give birth in Hong Kong, including forging documents, offering accommodations and immigration coaching. The checks at the border will continue, the immigration department said. Meanwhile, government authorities are also appealing to the public to report any pregnant mainland women who seem to have overstayed their visas.
今年還有十幾個(gè)內(nèi)地居民因幫助內(nèi)地孕婦來(lái)港產(chǎn)子而被判處最高達(dá)一年的監(jiān)禁。這些人的不法行為包括偽造證件、為來(lái)港產(chǎn)子孕婦提供食宿并進(jìn)行入境指導(dǎo)。入境事務(wù)處說(shuō)，在邊境口岸的檢查還將繼續(xù)。同時(shí)，特區(qū)政府部門(mén)也呼吁市民舉報(bào)那些看上去已經(jīng)逾期居留的內(nèi)地孕婦。
The city has long been an attractive destination for mainland Chinese seeking to hedge their bets abroad, with many choosing to buy property in the former British colony and give birth to their children in its hospitals.
對(duì)尋求到海外規(guī)避投資風(fēng)險(xiǎn)的內(nèi)地人來(lái)說(shuō)，香港一直以來(lái)都是一個(gè)很有吸引力的目的地。很多內(nèi)地人選擇在這個(gè)前英國(guó)殖民地買(mǎi)房，并在這里的醫(yī)院產(chǎn)子。
For some women, giving birth in Hong Kong is also a way to try to skirt China's one-child policy by remaining under the radar of mainland authorities, though in Guangdong province, authorities have said women will be fined if they are found to have given birth to an unauthorized second child in Hong Kong.
對(duì)一些女性來(lái)說(shuō)，在香港產(chǎn)子也是一種在內(nèi)地有關(guān)部門(mén)的監(jiān)管下，規(guī)避內(nèi)地計(jì)劃生育政策的方法。不過(guò)，廣東省有關(guān)部門(mén)說(shuō)，孕婦若被查出在香港違規(guī)生二胎，將被罰款。
Every year, some 28 million mainland Chinese tourists visit Hong Kong a city of 7 million. Some locals fear they are being crowded out by their northern neighbors, and that such numbers risk diluting the city's identity. Many Hong Kong locals have participated in demonstrations this year to protest the influx of such visitors, who arrive in Hong Kong to buy luxury goods as well as daily necessities, from milk powder to soy sauce, which are seen as having better guarantees on quality. The issue of mainland mothers has been a source of particular anxiety in Hong Kong, which has seen its birthrate decline for years. Currently, all children born to mainland mothers on Hong Kong soil are automatically given the local right of abode.
每年有約2,800萬(wàn)內(nèi)地游客赴港旅游，而香港本地人口只有700萬(wàn)。一些香港人擔(dān)心會(huì)被內(nèi)地人擠走，人數(shù)眾多的內(nèi)地游客可能稀釋香港人的身份認(rèn)同感。今年很多香港人都參加了示威活動(dòng)，抗議內(nèi)地游客的涌入。內(nèi)地游客到香港不僅購(gòu)買(mǎi)奢侈品，也購(gòu)買(mǎi)日用品，從奶粉到醬油不一而足，因?yàn)樗麄冋J(rèn)為香港銷(xiāo)售的產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量更有保證。在出生率多年來(lái)一直在下滑的香港，內(nèi)地孕婦赴港產(chǎn)子一直是香港一個(gè)尤其令人擔(dān)心的問(wèn)題。目前，內(nèi)地孕婦在香港產(chǎn)下的所有寶寶都會(huì)自動(dòng)獲得香港居留權(quán)。
Leung Chun-ying, Hong Kong's new chief executive, announced in April before he took office that starting next year, mainland women won't be permitted to give birth in private Hong Kong hospitals unless they are married to a permanent resident or have valid working visas. The city has also set a cap on births by non-local women in the city's public hospitals.
香港新任特首梁振英今年4月在上任前宣布，從明年開(kāi)始，內(nèi)地孕婦不得在香港私立醫(yī)院產(chǎn)子，除非她們的丈夫是香港永久居民或她們本人持有有效工作簽證。香港還對(duì)公立醫(yī)院接收非港孕婦的數(shù)量設(shè)置了上限。
Mavis Chang, a 34-year-old Hong Kong resident who gave birth in July, says local health facilities are overstretched. She was urged to book a hospital bed as soon as she knew she was pregnant to avoid be crowded out. 'Once I confirmed my fetus had a heartbeat, I had to pay a deposit immediately by then it had been just seven weeks. It was really stressfu,' she said.
34歲的香港居民Mavis Chang今年7月剛剛生了寶寶。她說(shuō)，香港醫(yī)療設(shè)施緊張。當(dāng)她得知自己懷孕后，就有人催促她預(yù)定醫(yī)院床位，以免生產(chǎn)時(shí)沒(méi)有床位。她說(shuō)，當(dāng)我確認(rèn)胎兒有心跳時(shí)，就必須馬上支付定金，但那時(shí)我懷孕才七周，非常非常緊張。
After the birth, she says, when she visited a crowded local health clinic for babies, she said that the majority of women appeared be from the mainland. 'The clinic was full of Mandarin-speaking mothers,' she said. 'I don't have any bias towards any nationality, it doesn't matter if that person is Mandarin-speaking or English- or Cantonese-speaking, I just feel that it was very crowded.'
她說(shuō)，生完寶寶后，當(dāng)她去一家人滿為患的嬰兒診所時(shí)，她說(shuō)大部分婦女看起來(lái)都是內(nèi)地人。她說(shuō)，診所里滿是說(shuō)普通話的媽媽?zhuān)覍?duì)任何國(guó)籍都沒(méi)有偏見(jiàn)，不管那人說(shuō)的是普通話、英語(yǔ)還是粵語(yǔ)，我只是覺(jué)得人很多。
