如何落實兩公約，國際社會都在看！--東亞人權代表團呼籲台灣政策應比照國際標準 記者會
Our Solidarity with Taiwan: East Asian Human Rights Defenders Call on Taiwan to fully Implement ICCPR and ICESCR Statement
馬英九總統將於本周四上午正式舉行聯合國「公民與政治權利國際公約」、「經濟、社會與文化權利國際公約」簽署儀式，值此前夕，受台灣人權促進會之邀，來台參與人權論壇之20多位東亞NGO代表，今天出席記者會，慎重表達對台灣落實兩國際公約之期待。
20多位分別來自印尼、菲律賓、韓國、泰國、馬來西亞、日本、新加坡、柬埔寨、蒙古各國NGO之人權捍衛者(Human Rights Defender)，樂見台灣於1967年簽署逾40年後，毫無保留的批准了兩國際公約。「公民與政治權利國際公約」與「經濟社會文化權利國際公約」為國際社會最常引用之兩大公約，全世界已有154個國家批准通過，乃檢驗一國人權狀況的基礎國際指標。
然而有鑒於東亞許多批准兩公約之國家，未加以落實者，亦所在多有，東亞人權組織代表們呼籲，批准只是第一步，給予掌聲之餘，政府如何落實，更應該受到嚴格檢驗。東亞各國與台灣的公民社會站在一起，提出鄭重聲明，國際公約不是政策裝飾品，國際公約之效力也不可僅當作通過一項國內法來視之。兩公約乃是締約國向國際社會所做之重大承諾，往後台灣對於兩公約之落實，將受到東亞公民社會之共同監督。
東亞人權組織代表與台灣人權促進會共同做出以下呼籲：
1. 台灣政府應盡速公佈確切的落實計畫書與時間表，由公民社會檢驗、受公民社會監督。
2. 任何與兩國際公約精神相牴觸之國內法，皆應盡速以兩公約為準做出修正。台灣政府應盡速提出具體修法方案，作為對兩公約最基本之承諾。
3. 東亞人權組織代表並特別關注兩公約批准後，具有指標性意義的「集會遊行法」修法，呼籲台灣政府須貫徹人權主張，莫高調批准兩公約，卻又提出與兩公約精神相抵觸之集遊修法。
4. 東亞人權組織代表最後呼籲台灣政府成立符合聯合國巴黎原則，以及獨立、有效運作之國家人權委員會，以監督兩公約之落實，並在保障以及推動人權上，積極處理公、私部門的人權侵害事件。國家人權委員會也將扮演與全球人權發展接軌之重要角色。東亞人權組織代表注意到台灣公民社會已經推動成立國家人權委員會近十年，籲請台灣政府積極聽取、廣泛採納公民社會之意見。
Our Solidarity with Taiwan:
East Asian Human Rights Defenders Call on Taiwan to fully Implement ICCPR and ICESCR
Statement
13 May 2009
The East Asian delegation of human rights defenders consists of twenty one human rights defenders from NGOs across East Asia including Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Cambodia, Mongolia, Korea and Japan. The delegation today stands with the Taiwan Association for Human Rights (TAHR) and express our deep expectation for Taiwanese government on implementation of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights(ICCPR) and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights(ICESCR).
The government failed to ratify the two covenants which were signed in 1976. The delegation welcomes the ratification without reservation. This positive move shows Taiwan’s resolution to adopt the international human rights treaties even as a non-member of the UN. The delegation therefore is eager to see Taiwan’s next step to the implementation.
We urge the government to start the implementation by providing action plans and timetable promptly for Taiwan’s civil society to examine. The government should also amend domestic laws which conflict with the two covenants in order to meet the international human rights standards.
Considering Taiwan’s recent situation, and as one common concern across East Asia, we especially attend to the urgency to amend the Parade and Assembly Law accordingly. The delegation perceived that it’s a crucial moment for Taiwan to put through the amendment since it was amended last time in 1987. We strongly urge the government to adopt an amendment which is fully in accordance with the ICCPR as the subsequent step to the ratification.
Lastly, the delegation calls on the government to acknowledge the importance of establishing an independent and effective National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) in line with UN Paris Principles to monitor the implantation of human rights treaties ratified. As a mechanism to, protect and promote human rights, the NHRC should also deal with human rights violations in both the public and private sectors. The NHRC will also play a crucial role as a linkage with global human rights developments. The delegation perceived that the struggle for establishing the NHRC led by Taiwan’s civil society has been continued for a decade, we urge the government to involve the civil society under the mutual prospect of establishing the NHRC.
