Dear CLOUD ULTRA 2021participants,
親愛參加Cloud Ultra 2021的朋友們，您們好

我們想要公佈更多關於Cloud Ultra，但現在看起來仍然不確定，有很多的因素限制CU的未來。
CU是與台中教育大學跟原民局聯盟合作計畫-結合部落市集與跑山活動，主要幫忙我們協調與各公部門單位（如林務局東勢林管處，台中市警察分局，和平區公所，台中市運動局及大安溪流域6大部落頭目里長及協會..等。）
當然我們希望這場活動最後是延期而不是取消，因為我們花了將近一年時間，心力，溝通及成本籌備這場活動，為了想要專心在這場也取消貓空跟叢林野跑，但最後因為疫情臨時取消，對我們非常的心力交瘁。
但現在是非常時期，一定要支持國家防疫工作。

以下是簡單說明可能會發生的情況:
1] 延期到9月11或18日（由於天氣和 Covid 可能不是最佳選擇，但對於聯盟合作計畫是最適合的時間。）
2] 延期到2021年10月（聯盟合作計畫期限已經到，我們需要再找更多資源協助。）
3] 延期到2022年三月/四月（如果沒有再其他的活動，我們公司可能無法在經濟上繼續維持。）
4] 取消（在我們報名規章裡，在活動14天前取消是沒有退費，然而我們仍然在最後一刻快速地取消一些項目，省下20%預算，所以我們可以分別地退款給58公里台幣750元，跟73公里台幣1250元。款項可以直接退費到帳戶或是轉換成優惠卷。）

如果要求部分退款的人數較多，我們將無法承擔費用並取消活動。可以轉換參加名額給另一個人。只有在疫情非常樂觀情況才會開始再報名活動（ 不提供T-shirt）

請保持安全，希望台灣跟世界會更好，恢復正常的生活。

We would like to announce more about Cloud Ultra but the situation still looks uncertain. There are many factors which are limiting held CU in the future. CU is part of a cooperative project with National Taichung University of Education and the Aboriginal Bureau Alliance with the aim to combine tribal fairs and mountain activities. They mainly help us coordinate with various public units (such as Forestry Bureau Dongshi, Taichung City Police, Heping District government office, Taichung City Sports Bureau, and the leaders of the 6 tribes and association in the Daanxi river,... etc.)

We hope this event will be postponed instead of cancelled, because we have spent almost a year of preparation for this event with big effort, communication and financial cost. Due to difficulty and effort requirements, we decided not to hold other events in spring of 2021 (Run Through The Jungle and Ultra Maokong) and focus fully on this unique event. Unfortunately, we had to cancel the event two days prior to its original date of 15th May 2021, due to the acceleration of spreading Covid-19 in Taiwan (it showed it was the best decision). It was very exhausting for us. But in this emergency period everyone must follow and support epidemic prevention measurements.

Below are possible scenarios with brief explanation:
1] postpone to 11th or 18th September 2021 (it is not optimal for event due weather and Covid, but preferred term for project)
2] postpone to October 2021 (village project is over, we may find more resources to support)
3] postpone to March/April 2022 (our company may not sustain financially if we cannot held another event)
4] cancelation (since it was canceled 14 days before the event there are officially no refunds, however we were able to quickly cancel many items and save 20% of budget, which is 750NTD or 1250NTD for 58km and 73km, respectively. This can be refund to account or in form of voucher in case of cancelation)

If there will be many requests for partial refund, we will not be able to bear the cost and will cancel the event. Transfer spot to another person is possible. Registering for the event will be possible only at a very optimistic pandemic level (T-shirts are not available.)

Keep safe and looking for better future in Taiwan and rest of world

台灣最大公約數 – 反共去統不反中
The True Common Denominator of Taiwan

我察覺到一個新的台灣共識（最大公約數）正在成形，而且已經接近完成。雖然許多人還沒意識到這點，也還有一些人尚處在無感、或雖然有感但心理上拒絕的階段。

I sensed a New Taiwan Consensus is forming and near completion, although many are still not fully aware of it, some at the psychological stage of ignoring it and some even in total denial .

這新共識可以用三個原素的一句話來總結：反共、去統、不反中國平民。三元素環環相扣，構成了一個具有主旋律的直白命題：那些已經把台灣視為自己家鄉的人，已經把台灣當成一個與他方無涉的主體。

This New Consensus can be summarized in one expression with three parallel elements: opposing communism, de-unification and neutralness toward Chinese civilians. These three elements constitute an organic whole with a common theme that simply says, people who took Taiwan as their home deemed themselves as one distinct entity .

為了讓人們充分理解這三元素的意義，需要做一些進一步闡釋。我們這就開始。

I understand some elaboration may be needed to allow the three elements to be fully appreciated, especially the third one. Let me begin.

1. 反共。台灣其實並沒有那麼反對自由的社會主義；事實上，台灣社會本身在日常生活型態中就含有明顯的自由社會主義的痕跡。但是，台灣絕不會容忍社會主義精神脫序到共產主義的地步。若然，那種社會主義就是敵人，沒有討論的餘地。台灣海峽彼岸的中國共產黨（CCP），就屬於這一類。

1. Opposing Communism – Taiwan is not that much against liberal socialism. In fact,there is a rather obvious strain of it already existing in its social life. However, Taiwan would not tolerate socialism when carried away to the extent of communism, and would take it as enemy. Period. Chinese Communist Party (CCP) on the other end of the Strait falls into this category.

2. 去統。在台灣，不但老一輩了解中共天天掛在嘴邊玩弄的「統一」，只不過是其用來維持政權、控制已經被洗過腦平民的一種虛偽口號，而年輕一輩只會以荒謬視之。因而，此處並沒有用過去的「反統」一詞，而是用「去統」，表示了一種將「統一」概念徹底由腦中去除的意思。就像「大掃除」的意思一樣，老早就該扔掉的東西就把它扔掉。

2. De-Unification – Not only do the older generations realize that the jingling of
“unification” of the CCP is just a bogus slogan for upholding its regime’s control
over the brain-washed civilians, the young generation of Taiwan simply finds the
slogan ridiculous. Therefore, rather than using the term “anti-Unification” as people used to do in the past, I think “De-Unification” – the unshackling of the very idea of unification, as one can relate with the word “de-clutter”- is a better suited term.

3. 不反中，指的是對中國平民保持中性的態度。過去三年間，包括我自己以及國際輿論，已經破除了那個存在已久的迷思 – 中共CCP就等同中國。情況根本不是這樣的。中共不等同中國，更不用說等同中國人民了。中共是一個具有9千8百萬黨員的巨大政黨，但那只是住在那塊土地上的14億人當中的7%。

3. Neutralness towards Chinese Civilians – In the past three years, people in Taiwan including myself, as well as the international community, have debunked the long-existed myth that CCP Is China. No, far from it. CCP is NOT equivalent to China, let alone the Chinese people. CCP is a huge party of 98 million members and that accounts for only 7% of the 1.4 billion Chinese people living on that landmass.

簡單的算數就可以呈現真相。對任何國家，如果僅佔7%的人口可以在政治上完全控制100%的人口，唯一的可能就是實施殘酷暴力或通過暴力改變人的頭腦。

Simple math would tell the truth. In any nation, when 7% of the population politically controls 100% of the population, it would be an impossibility unless by brutal violence or total brain coercion.

中國平民本身就是受害者。其他的國家，不應該膝蓋反應式的把受害者視為天生就是邪惡的。因此，無論在心態上還是現實地緣政治考慮下，台灣社會都應該把「必反」這詞留給共產黨而不是受害的平民。

Therefore, considering the Chinese civilians are victims themselves, people from other parts of the world should not act in a knee-jerk way towards the ordinary, victimized Chinese Civilians as if they are born evil. Either under a proper mindset or the practicality associated with geopolitics, Taiwanese society should and is starting to understand this point. “Anti-“ is an attitude reserved for CCP and not intrinsically for the ordinary and mostly victimized civilians.

這才是台灣的最大公約數。然而，為了選票的政治人物及民調機構拖累了台灣。每年每月的民調都在問早已失效的問題：你偏藍還是偏綠？你贊成獨立還是統一？

Putting together the above three Elements, thus there is the New Taiwan Consensus. What’s falling behind and dragging Taiwan’s feet, are the ballot-hungry politicians and the various outdated polling agencies. They do so many so-called popular surveys every year, sometimes monthly. And they stick to the long invalid way of setting up their survey questions: Are you favoring Green (DPP) or Blue(KMT)? Are you pro-independent or Pro-unification?

這種自我設限或自我審查的問法，使得其他國家以為台灣是個分裂社會。

This kind of self-confined or self-censored surveys leave other nations the impression that Taiwan is a split society, Green or Blue, Independence or unification etc.

台灣這種導致外人認為台灣是個分裂國家的作法，實在愚蠢。如果問的問題對，台灣是沒有分裂的。例如，如果將「你贊不贊成獨立」改為「你反共不反共」，結果肯定是98%以上。

It’s such a foolish thing to do for Taiwan itself misleading outsiders into deeming Taiwan as a split country. There is absolutely no split should the right questions be asked in the surveys. For example, had the question been changed from “Are you pro-independence or anti-independence” into “Are you pro-communism or anti-communism”，then the result would have been a clear-cut 98% or even 99.5% towards “anti”.

若問「你是反中國共產黨還是反中國老百姓」，前者不會低於80%，後者不會高於20%。

Now, try this further question: “Are you anti-Chinese Communist Party, or anti-Chinese common people”, my guess is the former gets at least 80% and the latter gets 20% at most.

第三個問題：「你願不願意被共產黨統治」，保證結果是99.9%的「不願意」。
The third question: “Would you be willing to live under the Communist Rule”? That would guarantee a resounding NO answer of 99.9%.

這就是新台灣共識、社會的最大公約數，應該向世界大聲、清楚、不含糊的說出來。

This is exactly how the New Taiwan Consensus looks like – the true common denominator among a seemingly divided Taiwan. And the New Taiwan Consensus should be articulated to the rest of the world, no vagueness, no grey area and unambiguously.

不信的話，可以用上述問題做幾次民調。而且我保證，在不久的將來，所有民主國家都會端出類似「台灣共識」的政策原則。

For any surveyor or politician who still has doubts about this New Taiwan Consensus, he or she can just conduct new surveys with questions suggested as above. And, I myself am convinced, in a not-so-distant future, all democratic countries on the planet would issue national policies based on guidelines similar to the New Taiwan Consensus, for the goodness of their respective countries.

所以，台灣為什麼不這樣做呢？這可是台灣展示世界政治領導力的機會啊！

So, Hey, Taiwan! Why not put a thrust on this Taiwan Consensus to the world by publicizing it unambiguously and show some political leadership, just for once?

後記：以雙語向全球發聲，將是我接下致力的方向。所使用的這兩種文字，涵蓋了35億人口，接近地球的一半人數。這個行動，將以 「前哨預策」網站 為核心基地，其他的社交媒體，只要有傳播力道，都會被用為衛星來做整體運作。

個人的思考、判斷不一定對，您也不見得同意，但是，我保證這平台中的每一句話都是獨立的、出自內心的。而今天的台灣，乃至於世界，最缺的就是突破傳統成見、不受黨派左右、同時又知錯能改的獨立思考力量。不知您是否同意？

「前哨預策」平台將分為三步走：內容平台 – 互動平台 – 行動平台。剛誕生的它，當前還只是個內容平台，但達到一定數量的會員支持後，將加入各種新媒體形式，與會員就重要議題互動，並以「達成不同意見之間的最大公約數」為目標。一旦在會員內部形成「最大公約數」後，就構成了行動的基礎。至於行動的形式，也由願意推動或參與的會員決定。

此平台婉拒任何政黨、政府的贊助，只接受個人會員或企業會員的贊助；所有收入及贊助，均將用於「讓台灣更好」的事務上，以及推動、發揮台灣作為東亞及世界的「關鍵少數」的槓桿角色，為人類下一波文明做出量力而為的貢獻。

我只能說，十年來的不斷保持獨立，希望能換得您對「不受任何政黨、政府左右」這一點點價值的認同。

這是張偉軒小提琴老師為學生所錄製的 金婚式（ La Cinquantaine）（The Golden Wedding）作曲家：Gabriel-Marie。 篠崎 バイオリン教本 4/5冊 小提琴演奏示範拉奏 Violin performing

我有聽過描寫環保的曲子，更多是描寫世間情愛的樂曲，但是妳有聽過為了結婚紀念日所譜寫的曲子嗎？整首曲子避免使用低音域的音符而用輕快的高音域旋律貫穿全曲，好聽而且朗朗上口。

法國作曲家瑪莉在1887年原為Bass與鋼琴創作了作品《金婚式》副題為＂古老風格的曲調＂，是一首愉快地小行板，音樂優美而和諧。作品命名與金婚50周年紀念儀式有關，但是音樂史上並未流傳給我們，是為了紀念什麼人的金婚慶典，而引發作者創作了這樣一部作品。

金婚式（結婚記念日）のお祝いという目的や、ヴァイオリンで演奏される場合はG線を使わないので澄んだ音色となり、演奏技術上も多くを求められないため、原曲をも超えてヴァイオリン愛好家に広く親しまれ、人気の高い作品である。

Gabriel-Marie's works include La Cinquantaine-  Air In The Olden Style  ("The Golden Wedding", 1887) for cello and piano, for octet, and in various other arrangements.
