(新春走基层)外国友人邂逅浙江渔村 在别样年俗中感知“中国年味”
中新网宁波2月2日电(记者 林波)制作麻糍、采挖牡蛎、包宁波汤圆……2月2日,在中国过春节的外国友人走进浙江省宁波市奉化区莼湖街道章胡村,体验海边渔村风情,感知“中国年味”。
莼湖依山傍海、良田肥沃、物产丰富,也由此形成了独特的饮食文化。这种饮食文化有别于内陆地区,它讲究山珍、海味、田产融为一起,海鲜米豆腐就是其中的代表之一。
外国友人体验牡蛎采挖。 林波 摄据悉,海鲜米豆腐是奉化沿海地区一道独特的风味小吃,是春节家家必备的食品,为奉化乃至浙东所少有。
“非常鲜美。”今年30岁的李源(Nguyen Le)来自越南,是一名在中国学习的博士生,在体验完牡蛎采挖后,她把新鲜采收的牡蛎放进锅中,和米豆腐、肉丝、蛋丝等素材一起烹饪后,一碗热气腾腾的海鲜米豆腐就出锅了。
在李源看来,中国的年味从舌尖上就可以体验到,“麻糍的软糯、汤圆的香甜、海鲜的鲜美等,各种各样的味道组成了多元化的中国年味。”
咸齑黄鱼汤、笋干烤肉、贡品奉蚶……在章胡村文化礼堂,望着丰盛的菜肴,来自印度的Taiseer Hussain Nafea感受到了春节满满的仪式感,“春节汇聚了各种各样的美食,不仅人团圆,菜也‘团圆’。”
外国友人体验包汤圆。 林波 摄除了舌尖美食外,中国年味无疑也独具文化味。
“中国春节,家家户户都会挂红灯笼、贴‘福’字和窗花。”今年35岁的宝林(Paulina Kus Ariningsih)来自印尼,在她的记忆中,中国春节是热闹喜庆的,特别是春节期间,马路上也挂起了红灯笼,寓意着新年红红火火、福气满满。
外国友人体验年俗活动现场。 林波 摄将红色的竖条纸粘贴在灯笼的骨架上,再将光源放入其中……在宝林的手中,一个红色的灯笼雏形显现,“中国文化源远流长,了解中国春节,才能读懂中国文化。”
“我的爷爷来自中国,我们家还保留着春节发红包的习俗。”来自印尼的婉徽(Karen Chow)今年18岁,她告诉记者,每一年的春节,长辈们都会给孩子发红包,“春节那一天家里人也会聚在一起,团圆是我对春节最初的认知。”
外国友人送春节祝福。 林波 摄事实上,从最初的穿唐装、吃汤圆、发红包,到现在的捣年糕、舞龙、舞狮,中国春节的年味和习俗正悄然在世界各地扩散、传播,“过春节”开始成为一种时尚和新的生活方式。
“我们举办这样的活动,希望加强与中外青年学子之间的联系和交流,在渔村的人情味中感受扑面而来的中国年味,感受元宵文化的独特魅力。”奉化团区委副书记袁静接受采访时如是表示。(完)
中新网评:处理核污水绝不是日本自家私事****** 中新网北京1月19日电(蒋鲤)日本政府近日称,将于2023年春夏期间开始向海洋排放经过处理的福岛第一核电站核污水。日本罔顾国内民众及周边国家的屡屡反对,企图将核污水“一倒了之”,把一件关乎全球海洋生态环境和公众健康的事当成了自家私事。 资料图:日本福岛第一核电站。2011年,福岛核电站事故发生后,大量放射性物质泄漏到大气层和太平洋,对周围环境造成了难以逆转的伤害,数十万人被迫撤离该地区。时至今日,作为日本邻国之一的韩国仍未解除福岛海鲜禁令。 日本以核污水存储能力即将达到上限为由,在2021年4月13日,正式决定将福岛第一核电站核污水排入太平洋。过去一年多,日本政府和东京电力公司一直在持续推进核污水排海计划。 日本政府辩称,这些核污水经多核素处理系统(ALPS)处理后很安全,甚至“可以喝”,这样的表态无疑在愚弄大众。 事实上,经过处理的核污水仍含有多种放射性物质,核污水一旦排放入海就无法回收,长期来看,将会给海洋生态带来难以估量的潜在威胁,最终危害人类健康。 因此,核污水排海计划推出后,遭到日本民众强烈反对。日本《朝日新闻》2022年3月公布的问卷调查显示,福岛县、宫城县和岩手县受访的42个市町村长中,约六成反对东京电力公司福岛第一核电站核污水排放入海。日本全国渔业协会联合会也多次申明立场,反对该计划。 日本政府认为,核污水排海是最便宜、最省事的解决方案,但此举却将周边国家乃至全世界置于核污染风险中。太平洋非日本一家之海,核污水会随着洋流流动,其影响势必会跨越国界,危害周边国家乃至整个国际社会的公共福祉和利益。 《韩国经济新闻》发文称,相关研究认为,福岛核污水如果排放入海,约7个月后将到达济州等韩国海域,该国水产业和旅游业将遭受相当大的损失。 德国南极海洋机构也曾发出警告,若日本将所有核污水排入海中,不到半年,整个太平洋都将面临高度辐射威胁,包括远在大洋另一端的美国。太平洋地区人民更是对日本该计划持反对意见。 日本作为《联合国海洋法公约》缔约国,有义务保护海洋环境。然而,在核污水排海方案的正当性、核污水数据的可靠性、净化装置的有效性、环境影响的不确定性等问题上,日本未能作出科学、可信的说明。 国际原子能机构技术工作组虽已三次赴日实地考察评估,但尚未就日排海方案的安全性给出结论,并且对日本提出诸多澄清要求和整改意见。在此情况下,日本仍执意推进核污水排海工程建设,这是极不负责任的行为。 太平洋不是日本的下水道,日本必须正视各方合理关切,在与周边国家等相关利益方和国际原子能机构充分协商后,制定合理的核污水处理方案。日本也要着眼长远,若只顾眼前,执意将核污水排放入海,不仅其自身,周边国家乃至全世界都将为之买单,其后果必将会危害数代人。 Fukushima water disposal by no means Japan’s own business By John Lee (ECNS) -- Japan has announced it will release treated wastewater from the wrecked Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the Pacific Ocean this year. Although Fukushima wastewater disposal affects global marine ecological environment protection and public health, Japan has turned a deaf ear to domestic and international opposition to dumping the contaminated water into the sea, treating the "global" matter as its own business. The Fukushima accident in 2011 had sent large quantities of radiation into the atmosphere and the Pacific Ocean, causing irreversible damage to the surrounding environment, and hundreds of thousands of people were forced to evacuate the area. South Korea still maintains its import ban on Japanese seafood from areas affected by the Fukushima nuclear disaster. On April 13, 2021, Japan announced it had decided to discharge contaminated radioactive wastewater in Fukushima Prefecture into the sea due to dwindling storage space, with the Japanese government and plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings Inc. promoting the release plan over the past year. The Japanese government argues that the water treated by an advanced liquid processing system, or ALPS, is safe and drinkable, which is undoubtedly fooling the public. In fact, the treated wastewater still includes a variety of radioactive substances and can’t be recycled once discharged into the sea, which will pose a great threat to marine ecology and ultimately endanger human health in the long run. Therefore, the discharge plan has been strongly opposed in Japan. According to a questionnaire conducted by The Asahi Shimbun, nearly 60 percent of mayors of 42 municipalities in Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima prefectures oppose the discharge plan. The National Fisheries Cooperative Federation of Japan has also repeatedly stated its opposition in public. The Japanese government believes that dumping Fukushima wastewater into the sea is the cheapest and most convenient solution, but neighboring countries and even the whole world will be at risk of nuclear pollution. The Pacific Ocean doesn’t belong to Japan and the wastewater flow along oceanic currents will surely break boundaries and endanger public welfare and the interests of neighboring countries and even the international community. The Korea Economic Daily reported that related research concluded that if contaminated water from Fukushima is released into the ocean, it would only take seven months for the contaminated water to reach the shores of Jeju Island, with the country's aquaculture and tourism suffering considerable losses. According to the calculation of a German marine scientific research institute, radioactive materials will spread to most of the Pacific Ocean within half a year from the date of discharge, and the U.S. and Canada will be affected by nuclear pollution. People in the Pacific region also oppose the discharge plan. As a participant of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, Japan has the obligation of protecting the marine environment. However, it hasn’t offered a full and convincing explanation on issues like the legitimacy of the discharge plan, the reliability of data on the nuclear-contaminated water, the efficacy of the treatment system or the uncertainty of environmental impact. Though the IAEA has yet to complete a comprehensive review after three investigations in Japan, the Japanese side has been pushing through the approval process for its discharge plan and even started building facilities for the discharge. It is rather irresponsible for Japan to act against public opinion at home and concerns abroad. The Pacific Ocean is not a private Japanese sewer. The country must seriously heed the voices of the international community and make a reasonable plan for the Fukushima wastewater disposal after full consultation with stakeholders and international agencies. If it only seeks instant interest and insists on discharging the contaminated water into the sea, not only itself, but also its neighboring countries and the entire world will pay for the decision and several generations will be forced to bear the consequence.
