一直以來 我都覺得I'm proud of being a Taiwanese in other countries!
但是當遇見愈來愈多不同國籍的人 漸漸發現老外對我們的觀感時 總是讓我很失望
很多老外都認為台灣是在阿共的統治下 或是不曉得台灣在哪裡
每當念書時 偶爾發現西方人對台灣的一些評論或觀察
剛開始都很興奮 因為有一種終於被關注的心情
但大多仍舊把台灣視為未開發.低生活水平的國家 看了真是讓人沮喪
有一次我與中國友人在談論文化的不同
而我也沒有想太多 直接脫口說出"像我們國家,我們都是....."
結果還沒說完 卻遭對方斜眼 並以另一種語調質問說:"蛤?你們國家?"
我以為他是我的好朋友 但自從他三番兩次的這樣質疑時 加上輕蔑的口氣
自此我就對他改觀了...
還有周圍來自美國或歐洲國家的朋友 對台灣一律很沒概念
甚至覺得台灣是個髒亂的國家(這已經不是第一次聽到了)
聽了讓人很難過 (雖然與許多地方相較 台灣環境衛生是該加強啦)
Anyway,經歷了西方的文字敘述還親身經驗
多多少少總讓我有被輕視或不受重視的感覺
也許 這一部份是懲罰我以前在台灣時對外勞也存在著偏見
也許 這也是台灣該讓國際留下輕晰的正面印象的時候了!
@以上存屬個人感受,無意造成政治立場的爭論。
