【新加坡《雅虎》】排名：新加坡现在拥有世界上最强大的护照



The red Singaporepassport has topped a global passport ranking index thanks to one more countryremoving visa requirements for Singaporeans.

由于一个国家取消了对新加坡人的签证要求，新加坡的红皮护照在一个全球护照排名中位居榜首

Developedby Arton Capital, a financial advisory firm which provides investorprogrammes for residence and citizenship, the Global Passport Power Rank of2017 ranks national passports by the cross-border access they bring, assigning a“visa-free score” according to the number of countries a passport holder canvisit visa-free or with visa on arrival. Paraguay removed visarequirements for Singaporeans, giving the Singapore passport a visa-free scoreof 159.

由一家提供绿卡和公民身份服务的金融咨询公司Arton Capital开发，2017年的全球最强护照排名根据某国护照（为护照持有人）所带来的跨境便利程度，即根据“免签分数”，指护照持有人可以免签或落地签的国家的数量，为各国护照进行排名。由于巴拉圭（最近）给予新加坡人免签待遇，使得新加坡护照的“免签分数”上升到159分。

Germany and Sweden,ranked second and third, have a score of 158 and 157, respectively.

德国和瑞典排名第二和第三，其分数分别为158和157。

Philippe May, ManagingDirector of Arton Capital’s Singapore office said, “For the first timeever an Asian country has the most powerful passport in the world.”

Arton Capital新加坡办事处总经理菲利普·梅说：“这是亚洲国家有史以来第一次拥有世界上最强的护照。”

“It is a testamentof Singapore’s inclusive diplomatic relations and effective foreignpolicy.”

“这是新加坡有包容性的外交关系和有效的外交政策的明证。”

Meanwhile, the UnitedStates passport has fallen in the ranking since President Donald Trump tookoffice. It is now sixth on the index. Turkey and the Central AfricanRepublic recently revoked their visa-free status to US passport holders.

与此同时，自唐纳德·特朗普总统就职以来，美国护照的排名就下降了。 现在是该指数的第六位。 土耳其和中非共和国最近撤销了对美国护照持有者的免签待遇。

Here are the new top10 passport power rankings:
1. 159 – Singapore
2. 158 – Germany
3. 157 – Sweden, South Korea

If use Singaporepassport to take MRT will still break down. What is the point ?

要是用新加坡护照坐地铁，地铁还是老出故障的话，护照强力又有什么用？
译注：多年来，新加坡的公共交通系统因其高效和便利而获得国际认可。 然而，自2011年12月以来，新加坡的地铁（MRT）服务一直受到频繁出现严重故障，此问题在由SMRT列车公司运营的线路中尤甚。另据其他报道，由于列车运营商SMRT的“深层次”企业文化问题，导致列车基础设施缺乏维修。

Amransan 回复Gege
those voted for this deserve all the breakdownthe mrt give them lol
and still think they got the besttransportation in the world lol

那些投票选出这届政府的人也就配用这届政府给他们的破地铁哈哈。
而且他们仍然认为他们拥有世界上最好的交通运输系统哈哈。

Bunny回复Gege
Only the gullible will go gaga with this"news". Other countries not bothered with lots of these stupid worldrankings. Good Govts or countries are interested in their own performance yearon year, a truly more meaningful measure.

只有轻信的人才会被这个“新闻”所鼓舞。其他国家并没有为这些愚蠢的世界排名而烦恼。 好的政府或国家只对提升本国每年的同比表现感兴趣，这才是一个更有意义指标。

To the bellyachers, croakers, gripers,grouser, grouchs, sourpuss, and whiners who are forever complaining aboutSingapore you are now able to visit, visa-free of 159 countries around theworld and also have the opportunity to live there as you desire. Isn't thatgood news.

对于那些不停抱怨新加坡的货们来说，你现在可以免签去全世界159个国家，也可以直接在那里住下来。这不是个好消息吗？

TH回复Gege
Is that what you used your passport for,taking MRT ? And so many chaps here agreed with you. Are you all admiring yourpassport while taking the MRT?

你就只用你的护照坐地铁？还有这么多人给你点赞。 你们是不是都在坐地铁的时候欣赏你们的护照？

Don't just compren compren and compren, itswear and tear, we are still better than so many countries

别总是抱怨抱怨抱怨，地铁也会老化，我们还是比许多国家强得多。

Azathoth 回复HASSAN
"wear and tear" your head lah. SMRT'sCEO already admitted the problem is work culture.

还说啥”老化“。SMRT的CEO已经承认问题出在他们的企业文化。

Here, in Mr Kuek's own words, "There hasbeen criticism about SMRT’s work culture. Indeed, many of our major disruptionsin the past have been attributed, in some part, or all, to human error orfailure. We regret that this is so."

看看，用郭先生自己的话说：“目前对SMRT的企业工作文化存在一些批评。确实，我们过去出现的很多重大故障可以部分或全部归因于人为失误，我们对此感到遗憾。”

Other countries (e.g. UK) have even olderrailways and much, much longer tracks but they don't experience breakdown on aregular basis.

其他国家（比如英国）的地铁线路更老，总长度也长得多得多，但是他们可没有让故障成为日常。

You want to bury your head in the sand like anostrich, up to you. But don't try and throw smoke to blind other Singaporeans.

如果你想像只鸵鸟一样把头埋在沙子里，随便你。但是别扔烟幕弹迷惑其它新加坡人。

Penthopia回复Gege
That's right, what's the point. There's nopoint for you to bring up such discussion. Don't associate Passport with MRT.That's stupid.

没错，（你在这里提起地铁）有什么意义。 你提出这样的讨论是没有意义的。 不要把护照和地铁联系起来。 这么做很愚蠢。

What's a point ofhaving powerful visa free to visit other countries when our govt is locking ourown CPF moneys to prevent us to take moneys to travel?

护照各种免签有什么用？政府拿着咱们的公积金不给咱们，用啥去旅行？
译注：在新加坡，中央公积金（CPF）是一项强制性的综合储蓄计划，旨在帮助新加坡人和永久居民主要为退休，医疗和住房需求提供资金。

Will give out morefree passports to foreigners. Some foreigners came here to get passports togain entry to other countries.

国家以后还会给外国人发更多的免费（新加坡）护照。 有的外国人专门来这里办（新加坡）护照来（免签）进入其他国家。

Singapore is alsoNO 1 in importing third world foreigners.

Singaporean oftencried MONEY NOT ENOUGH ! What is the point of having a powerful passport?

新加坡人整天哭穷，有本强力护照又有什么用？

scam
This is a USELESSranking, like one of those frivolous Guinness book of world records, in havingsay the world’s biggest pizza eating contest or the longest chain of sausagesarranged into a gummy bear shape. LOL.

这排名啥用没有，就像那种轻率的吉尼斯世界纪录中一样，净是世界上最大的吃比萨大赛，或排列成一个橡皮熊的形状的世界上最长的香肠之类的玩意。哈哈。

Wrong use of theEnglish word “Powerful” too. Can your red passport be so “Powerful” it canshoot out laser rays? LOL. It should be termed “most Convenient” passport.That’s about it. Visa or no visa, its just paperwork for travel. No big deal.Really. LOL.

这篇报道用的英语词“Powerful”也不恰当。你的红皮护照能“Powerful”到发射激光吗？哈哈。应该说“最方便的”护照。也就是这么回事。要签证，不要签证，不就是一个文件吗，没什么大不了的。真的。哈哈。

Look, if it isreally so “powerful”, how come so many Msians still prefer to be PRs and hangon to their Msian passports instead? LOL.

如果它真的那么“Powerful”，为什么那么多马来西亚人还是只拿新加坡绿卡，保持自己的马来西亚护照呢？哈哈。

If your owncountry’s embassy is not supportive and thoroughly protective of her citizens,you will still get stuck in foreign customs with the most “PowDerful” passportlah. LOL.

如果你本国的使馆并不支持和完全保护她的公民，你就算有最“Powerful”的护照啦，在过外国海关的时候还是会被拦下来。哈哈。

Instead ofachieving more meaningful rankings in say, world’s most happy people on theplanet, or world’s economy with smallest rich-poor gap; LRD under the famiLEELEEgime now has little left to shout about except some irrelevant ranking? LOL.

忽视了世界上更加有意义的排名，比如世界上最幸福的人民，或世界上贫富差距最小的经济体，小红点在李家政权的统治下现在除了一些没用的排名之外几乎没有什么可以夸耀的了。哈哈。

Let’s hope LRDdon’t get No.1 ranking for world’s most frequent train breakdowns good enoughliao lor. LOL.

希望小红点不会在世界上地铁故障最频繁排名上得第一，我就知足了咯。哈哈。
译注：
LRD即“little red dot” （小红点），是媒体常用的新加坡的昵称。 它指的是这个国家在世界和亚洲的许多地图上被描绘成一个小红点。
Liao lor即汉语“了（liao三声）咯”的直接音译。新加坡英语中这种用法有讽刺意味。本站读者们应该都会汉语，可以自己体会到这种讽刺意味。

Why are there somany negative reactions to this piece of information? I am proud to be aSingaporean passport holder. It do save a lot of hassles at the immigrationcheck points. I do appreciate Singapore excellent diplomacy and foreign policy.One more thing, trains do break down outside Singapore too.

为什么会有这么多消极的反应呢？ 我很自豪能成为新加坡护照持有人。 它在移民检查点确实帮我避开了很多麻烦。 我很欣赏新加坡优秀的外交事务和外交政策。 还有一点，在新加坡以外的地方，火车也会坏的。

Powerful??? Youcannot even get a plate of mee siam in JB at a discount price!!! lagi best iswhen you show them your "POWERFUL" passport, they will charge youdouble for the "power"!!!

强大？？？ 你甚至不能用它以优惠的价格在新山市买到一盘暹罗面！ 更好的是当你向他们展示你的“强大”护照时，他们会因为你的“强大”收双倍的钱！
译注：
新山市（马来语：Johor Bahru，全称：BandarayaJohor Bahru，简称“JB”）是马来西亚柔佛州的首府，南隔柔佛海峡与新加坡相望。
mee siam 直译为“面暹罗”，是一种在新加坡和马来西亚流行的薄米粉。 据说它起源于马来人和土生华人社区。 顾名思义，这是从泰国风味得到灵感的。
lagi，马来语，意为“更”。

Valuable?? In whatsense?? Are you saying a USA passport holder compare to Singapore passportholder, if the plane crash, both died, the family of the Singapore passportholder gets $10MILLION and USA family gets peanuts? You think so?? then, youare writing garbage news.

有价值？？ 凭什么？？ 你是说美国护照持有人与新加坡护照持有人相比，如果飞机失事死亡，新加坡护照持有人的家庭获得1000万美元，美国家庭只能获得一个花生吗？ 你真这么认为？ 如果不是的话，你写的这条消息就是 垃圾。

Visa free travelare usually reciprocal concession giving by the two countries concerned.
That meansnationals from 159 countries can also comes into Singapore without a screeningdone in their countries and getting a visa first.
This is a realsecurity risk and not an advantage to us.
This so called"most powerful passport" is just an empty accolade.

免签证旅行通常是有关两国给予的相互让步。
这意味着来自159个国家的国民也可以在没有在本国进行筛选并获得签证的情况下可以直接进入新加坡。
这对我们来说其实是一个真正的安全风险，并不是一个好处。
这个所谓的“最强大的护照”只是一个空洞的荣誉。

The more the restof the World knows how Sheep-like Singaporeans are, the more"powerful" our Passport will become. Because, we all used to beingHerded around and docile. But wait ; in the next 10 to 20 years, Singaporeanswill be mostly made up of Freee-spirited New Citizens from the likes of China.Lets then see how Docile and Sheepish these will be. And the "power"of our Passport.

世界其他地方越知道新加坡人跟绵羊一样，我们的护照就越“强大”。 这是因为，我们都习惯于被驯服（因此发放免签的话也不会有问题）。 可是等等， 在10到20年后，新加坡人大部分都将是来自中国等地的的自由奔放的新公民。 让我们来看看这些新人还能多么温顺，咱们的护照还能多“强大”。

Ls
It's best weSingaporeans do not keep harping that we have the most powerful passport. Itmay come across as arrogant to other countries. The visa waiver is a privilegeother countries gave for their own reasons. Just enjoy the privilege while youhave it, but don't flaunt it, and be polite when visiting other countries.

新加坡人最好不要唠叨我们拥有最强大的护照。 这只能显得对其他国家傲慢。 豁免签证是其他国家为了自己的原因而给予我们的特权。 咱们就闷声享受这个特权，不要炫耀它，在访问其他国家时要有礼貌。

Please lah, thebase credit is still very much due to the fact that Spore was an ex-colony ofthe British Empire.

由于是大英帝国的前殖民地，星国的基础信用还是相当高的。

The Coat of Arms ofthe Republic Singapore, printed on Spore passport, is a modification of theCoat of Arms of the UK.

新加坡护照封面上的国徽是对英国国徽的简单修改。

That has nothing todo with LHL and the current PAP team lah.

这根李显龙和目前的人民行动党政府没啥关系啦。

Post independence,LKY and his govt, kept the British governing system mostly intact. Spore bydefault, is a Commonwealth nation.

独立后，李光耀和他的政府基本保持了英国式的政府结构，因此也就自动成了英联邦国家。

The DishonorableSon merely inherited the system, and at best, does slightly little more toclimb up one or two notch in the ladder only lah. OK lah, give him some creditfor that.. Don't say I politically bias. LOL

不肖子只是继承了这个制度，而且最多只能稍稍往梯子上爬一两蹬。 好啦，就算他一点功劳。不要说我在政治上有偏见。 哈哈。

Of course, climbingup one or two steps in the rankings, come at a COST for taxpayes lor... giventhe extent to which the PAP Govt collect$$$$ from citizens and SPREAD OURWEALTH, literally, all over the world. LOL

当然，爬高一点的代价是纳税人多花了很多钱咯。人民行动党政府把新加坡公民的钱在世界上乱撒，全世界。哈哈。

What's the use whentoo many ex-foreigners from dubious background are holding it and using it tofacilitate their crime spree and bad behaviour overseas, causing true blueSingaporeans much shame and loss of prestige by association. Furthermore, manyadvanced and democractic countries are wising up now and no longer recognisethe assurance of good citizen through the use of the red passport and thusimmigration becomes harder to clear and customs often check the bags mroethoroughly.

如果有很多可疑背景的外国人利用它（新加坡）来在海外连续犯罪，那么除了让真正的新加坡人感到羞耻和失去信用，这又有什么用呢？许多先进的民主国家现在都不会再很容易地接纳拥有红皮护照的人成为公民，让我们移民他国变得更加困难。海关清关的时候也变得更加经常对我们的行李进行彻底的检查。

Singapore likely goto Venezuela more than Paraguay. Singapore still need to apply visa forVenezuela. Also MFA should work harder on Africa continent. Start with Ethopia.

比起巴拉圭，新加坡人更愿意去委内瑞拉。 新加坡人去委内瑞拉仍然要申请签证。 此外，外交部应该在非洲大陆上下下功夫。 从埃塞俄比亚开始。

Not powerful enoughthan EU nation passports in middle east countries. Govt should help to make sgpassport visas free in GCC and middle east countries.

（新加坡护照）在中东国家并不比欧盟国家护照更强大。 政府应该让新加坡护照在海湾合作委员会国家和中东国家也免签证。

新加坡现在拥有“世界上最强大的护照”。
这么说，这个TMD“世界上最强大的护照“到底能给新加坡和新加坡人带来什么，想想吧！
基本上什么也带不来，因为现在的新加坡是一团糟，管理不善，事件处理不当，完全被一群野蛮的非法移民破坏了。这些人被用作“廉价劳动力”来干扰和破坏我们的基础设施，用他们的变态下流的行为和生活方式公开在全岛上完全玷污我们体面的国家，呸！

This is a realproblem for Singaporeans. Such announcement will attract more desperate peoplefrom other countries to reside in our already congested island.
If you visit Europeor any other countries which we have seen their residents residing here, youwill know why they want to stay in Singapore. Yet, our Govt policy is toattract more of such people to reside here, creating social and economicproblems for Singaporeans.

这对新加坡人来说是一个真正的麻烦。 这种通报将吸引更多来自其他国家的绝望的人来移民到在我们这个已经很拥挤的岛屿。
如果您访问欧洲，或其他已经领教过这些移民的国家，你就知道他们为什么想留在新加坡了。我们政府的政策就是要吸引更多这样的人居住在这里，给新加坡人造成社会和经济问题。
