“印度是世界上第二大的手机市场,10月份创下10亿手机用户。”印度国家电信管理局透露(美联社图片/ Manjunath Kiran)
All mobile phones sold in India will have to have a panic button from the start of next year, an official said Tuesday, as the country grapples with large numbers of sex crimes against women.[CN]
随着印度努力应对大量性侵妇女的罪行,一位政府官员周二说道,“从明年伊始,在印度出售的所有手机都必须配备紧急按钮。“
The button would allow users to call emergency services by pressing a single key on their phone, a telecommunications ministry official told AFP.[CN]
紧急按钮允许用户单按手机上的一键便可呼叫紧急服务。通讯部官员告诉美联社。
"No cell phones can be sold without the provision for panic button from January 1, 2017," he said, requesting anonymity.[CN]
“2017年1月1日始,没有安装紧急按钮设备的手机一律不准出售。”他匿名答复道。
The ministry said it was also making inbuilt GPS compulsory from January 1, 2018.[CN]
该官员还透露,2018年1月1日起,内装GPS也是强制性的。
"Technology is solely meant to make human life better and what better than using it for the security of women," telecom minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said late Monday.[CN]
“技术纯粹是为了使人们生活变好,怎能达到更好呢,用它来保护妇女安全。”通讯部长Ravi Shankar Prasad周一说道。
India has struggled to curb high levels of sexual violence, a problem that shot to global prominence with the fatal gang rape of a student in Delhi in December 2012 as she returned home from the cinema.[CN]
印度奋力抑止居高不下的性骚扰案件,2012年12月份在德里市,一团伙轮奸一看完电影回家的女学生震惊世界。
That incident led to an overhaul of India's rape laws including speeding up of trials and tougher penalties for offenders, but high numbers of assaults persist.
The latest official figures show 36,735 rapes were reported across the country in 2014, although activists say the actual number is likely much higher with many crimes going unreported due to the social stigma they attract.
India is the world's second-largest mobile market and notched up its billionth mobile phone subscriber in October, according to the country's telecoms regulator.
给男人配个“平等权利教育101”按键怎么样?或者“消除性别歧视”按钮?或者“一劳永逸消除等级”按钮?印度在科学,数学等领域确实有过人本事。但是他们在生活的其他方面缺乏共识,使得他们的文化越陷越深。只要他们还坚持女性是低人一等的物种这种想法 ,一个按键解决不少这些深度的问题,他们的宗教教义里有再多的女神又有何干?国家金玉其表,败絮其中。
