〔記者董柏廷/台北報導〕羅大佑日前在廣播節目上砲轟年輕世代創作幾年就拿政府補助自稱文化人,領文化補助是「不要臉」,網路再掀「青鳥飼料」的嘲諷。文化部長李遠今(11)日受訪時替年輕創作者抱不平,直言外界對文化補助有極大誤解,這絕非天上掉下來的福利,而是極度嚴苛的專業競爭。

李遠指出,不同時代對文化人有不同定義。過去社會將文化人視為帶有指導性質的菁英,但在當代,文化就是一份工作,且往往是最缺乏保障的行業。一般勞工或上班族享有勞健保與制度性福利,但選擇全職寫作、畫漫畫、搞雕塑或拍電影的創作者,一旦放棄上班就幾乎毫無退路。

李遠以近年榮獲國際大獎的作家楊双子為例,透露楊双子也是直到8年前拿到文化部第1桶金補助,才得以辭去送貨打工的零工生活,專心投入創作。李遠強調,文學補助往往是500、600人角逐10到20個名額,超過90%的申請者會被淘汰。文化部能做的,只是在有限資源中找出有潛力的新血,給予起步支持。

「我恨不得台灣每個人都是文化人,人人有創作的機會。」李遠表示,當前年輕人的文學、漫畫與音樂水準遠比過去貧困世代更有理想與才華,許多人是在收入極低的情況下咬牙堅持。他最擔憂的不是預算被批評,而是經費縮減會直接扼殺青年機會,例如短片補助名額若從20個被砍到8個,最終受害的依舊是台灣整體的文化競爭力。

Open Questions

  • 文化部未來是否會調整補助審查機制?

The Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council calls "transnational suppression" a fabricated lie. The Mainland Affairs Council blasts: There is no room for sophistry

In order to counter China's transnational suppression, the Taiwan government plans to amend the "Anti-infiltration Law" to increase penalties. The Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council criticized this as fabricating lies by the Democratic Progressive Party and promoting "green terror"; the Mainland Affairs Council criticized the fact that the CCP's violence against dissidents is well established and cannot be defended.
