王妃日记---缅怀戴安娜

liuaimin2008

Our second day began early with a flight to Quito. I had asked to visit the city as a last minute change to my program, because l had wanted to see for myself the part of the country which had been at the heart of the conflict.
As we drove to our next meeting at the hospital,I thought about the disturbing stories Paul had told me. Tragicallys these are everyday stories for the people living in this region.Today, in what is supposed to be peacetime,it\\'s mostly women and children who are victims of land mines．women, because they are the ones working inthehelds．and chndren,who play unaware of the danger underfoot. The staff at the hospital told me they admit mine casualties like this fourteen year- old boy weekly. His family had recently returned home after the war. He\\'d been helping to plant crops, not knowing the area around his home was mined． He\\'s lost most of his leg, and part of his face, All he was trying to do was provide for his family.
He was typical of the innocent ones. Before I came to Angola, I knew the facts, but the reality was a shock. Here people are living with the knowledge that it is only amatter of time before someone else is maimed or killed．It was moving and encouraging to see the confidence shown by those learning to walk again. But the millions of unexploded land mines in their country will go on shattering lives for decades to come. If these children are to have a future. we must end the use of these evil weapons． The on1y way forward is for a total worldwide ban on antipersonnel land mines.

Diana：When the fighting was going on no one left their house, so they buried their relatives in the garden.
Man： Yeah, in fact my, my boss from Rwanda was here yesterdays he showed us a house where he used to live, and there were five bodies inside the well.
Woman jollrnalist （Asks Princess Diana）： Ma\\'am, a government minister at home has said you\\'re a \"loose cannon\" by supporting this campaign. Do you have any reaction to that？ Diana：I\\'m really trying to highlight a problem that\\'S going on all around the world． That\\'s all.
Woman jurnalist： It\\'s been said though that you\\'re aligning yourself with Labour policy. Do you think that\\'s wise,
Diana： Labour？I,I don\\'t know what you\\'re talking about...
（The guards intervene.）
Guard：......thank you very much.
Diana： Ah, I really burst into tears. who？Am I? Who said l am a loose cannon？...... I\\'m not a political figure, nor do I want to be one, but I come with,with um, my heart,and I want to bring awareness to people in distress, whether it\\'s in Angola or any part of the world． The fact is I\\'m a humanitarian figure, and always have been, and always will be.


第二天一早,我们乘飞机前往奎多。最后一分钟我要求改变行程,去参观这座城市,因为我想亲自看看这一战争中心国的部分地区。
在我们驱车前往医院参加下一个会议的路上,我一 直想着保罗告诉我的那些令人不安的故事。可悲的是。 对于居住在这一地区的人来说,这些都是常事。在今天 这所谓的和平时代,地雷的牺牲者大多 是妇孺。妇女,是因为她 们要在田里 辛劳；儿童。是因为池们不知脚底的 危险而嘻戏 玩耍：医院的工作人员告诉我,他们每 星期都要接 纳象这个十四岁男孩一样的地雷伤残者,最近男孩的家人战后返家。他正帮助家人种植庄稼,却不知道他家那一片是雷区,他失去了大半条腿,脸部受损。而他只是想尽力而为养家。
他是许多无辜受害者的典型。我来安哥拉前,就有 所了解,可事实更令人震惊。在此居住的人们很清楚有人被炸死或炸伤只是个时间问题。看到那些重新学习走路的人所表现出来的自信真是令人鼓舞和感动。但在未来的几十年里,他们国家中成千上万未被引爆的地雷将会继续摧残生命。如果希望这些孩子拥有未来,我们必须停止使用这些邪恶的武器。唯一的出路就是在全球的范围内禁止杀伤性地雷。

黛安娜：战争期间没有人离开自己的家园,所以他们把亲人埋在花园里。
男人：是的,其实,我的老板来自卢旺达,昨天还在这儿,他带我们看了他曾住过的房子。井里面有五具尸体。
女记者（采访戴安娜。）：夫 人,国内的一位政府部长说你支持这项运动无疑是\"发疯\"。对此你有何反应？
黛安娜：我是真的想把一个全球性的问题摆到世人面前。仅此而已。女记者：但有人说你这是在和劳动党政策联盟。你觉得那明智吗？
黛安娜：劳动党？我,我不道你在说什么......
（保缥介入。）
保缥：......非常感谢。
黛安娜：哦,我都哭了。谁? 我？是谁说我发疯了? 我不是政治家,也不想成为政治家。我带着,带着 一颗心来,我想唤起苦难中的人们的觉醒,不管是在安哥拉或是世界其它的地方。事实是,我是一个人道主义者,一直都是、永远都是。
