Q: According to reports, recently, in an e-mail survey sent to its members and on the registration page of its mobile phone app, Marriott Hotel listed Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and Tibet as "countries". Reports said that some Chinese departments have taken measures in response to the global hotel chain's behavior and initiated an investigation on that. What is your comment?

答：我相信大家都已经注意到有关情况。你可能也注意到了，中方有关部门已经对此作出了处理，你所提到的这家企业负责人也已公开致歉。

A: I believe you have all noted the relevant situation. You may have also noted that the Chinese competent authorities have dealt with that and the head of the corporation you mentioned has made a public apology.

Q: Yesterday, you made a response to Iran's claim that China did not help to rescue those missing Iranian crewmen. Does China agree to let the Iranian side dispatch professional teams to take part in the search and rescue efforts?

答：中方对其他国家参与搜救工作持开放和欢迎态度。我愿重申，事故发生以来，中国政府高度重视并一直在尽最大努力搜救撞船事故失踪船员。中方救援人员冒着巨大生命危险和安全威胁多次接近事故船只，近距离实施搜救和灭火作业。同时，中方也协调了日韩等国搜救力量参与海上救援。中方将继续本着专业和负责任的态度开展救援工作，希望各方以中国交通运输部官方发布信息为准，以准确把握救援工作实际情况。

A: China welcomes and is open to other countries' participation in the search and rescue efforts. I would like to reiterate that since the accident happened, the Chinese government has attached great importance to it and made all-out efforts to conduct maritime search and rescue for the missing crewmen. When faced with security threats, the Chinese rescuers approached the tanker at the risk of their lives many times to search, rescue and fight the fire at close range. Meanwhile, China has coordinated with the rescue teams from Japan and the ROK. We will continue with the search and rescue efforts with a professional and responsible attitude. We hope that the relevant sides will learn about their information through such official channels as China's Ministry of Transport so as to get an accurate understanding of the developments of the search and rescue efforts.

你刚才提到伊朗，我也想说，中方与伊朗各部门就救援工作保持着通畅有效沟通。据我目前掌握的情况，中方已根据伊方申请以最快速度协助12名伊朗专业搜救人员抵达上海，中方正在安排上述人员尽快参与具体救援行动。此外，组织具体救援工作的上海海事局有关负责人已于昨日在上海向伊朗驻华大使当面介绍了搜救工作最新进展。

You mentioned Iran just now. I want to tell you that China maintains unimpeded and effective communication with the competent authorities of Iran. According to the information I have received, China has assisted 12 Iranian professional rescuers in arriving in Shanghai at the fastest speed at the request of Iran. Now we are arranging for them to engage in the search and rescue efforts as soon as possible. In addition, yesterday, the officials from the Shanghai Maritime Affairs Bureau informed the Iranian Ambassador to China of the latest developments of the search and rescue efforts face-to-face in Shanghai.

追问：伊朗救援队伍是否已经抵达上海?

Follow-up: Has the Iranian rescue team arrived in Shanghai?

答：我刚才说了，中方以最快速度协助12名伊朗搜救人员抵达了上海，我们将会尽快安排他们参与有关搜救工作。伊朗驻华大使实际上已经提前抵达了上海。

A: I said just now that with our help, 12 Iranian professional rescuers have arrived in Shanghai at the fastest speed and that we will arrange for them to engage in the search and rescue efforts as soon as possible. Actually, the Iranian Ambassador to China had arrived in Shanghai earlier than them.
