该系列讨论了国家安全问题 that discusses the safety of countries
字幕菌团 纪录片
我们的第一个目的地是俄罗斯 Our first destination was Russia
如果你看过那集的话你会明白 and if you saw that episode you'll know
我们并不仅仅是从游客的角度 that we focused not only on safety
关注安全问题 in terms of people visiting the country as tourists
而且关注如果你打算生活在这个国家 but also how safe you might be
你会享受什么程度的安全 if you intended to go and live in the country
此外 我们想说明 Again we'll state that
整体安全总是难以理解的 general safety is not always easy to understand
主要是因为它通常取决于 mainly because it often depends on
你想去哪或去做什么 where you intend to stay and what you intend to do there
然而 我们将会 We will however
着眼于犯罪统计数据 look at crime statistics
政府建议 government advice
最近的新闻报道 recent news reports
和当地居民的忠告 and what the people living there tell us
这绝不是一种精密的科学 It's by no means an exact science
但我们应从现存的危险中获得启发 but we should get some idea about the dangers that exist
所以 欢迎收看这集 Infographics Show So welcome to this episode of the Infographics Show
住在墨西哥安全吗 Is It Safe To Live in Mexico
墨西哥是个相当大的国家 Mexico is a fairly large country
地处北美洲南部 in the southern part of North America
上接美国 with the USA standing above it
下临中美洲 and Central America down below
截至视频制作之时 At time of writing
世界实时统计数据显示 World ometers states the
墨西哥居住人口达到130333770人 live population of Mexico is 130333770
这使其成为世界上的人口大国之一 making it one of the most populous nations on Earth
所以如果你考虑在那里定居 So you;re thinking about living there
也许是去尤卡坦州某一个美丽的沙滩 perhaps going to one of those beautiful beaches in the Yucatan
或是在一个多彩斑斓的城市 or chilling to the sound of mariachis
听着流浪乐队的演奏起鸡皮疙瘩 in one of the country's many colorful cities
但有件事会让你烦恼 But there's one thing that bothers you
你看到的都是关于帮派暴力的新闻 and that's all the news reports you keep seeing about
毒品犯罪如同战争一样恐怖 gang violence that looks more like war than drug-related crime
你曾经像井底之蛙一样 You'd have to be living under a stone
从未看过电视剧和纪录片所展示的 not to have seen any of the countless TV series and documentaries
墨西哥穷街陋巷的一面 showing us that Mexico has some really mean streets
让我们从了解帮派 犯罪以及谋杀开始 So let's start with that gangs and crime and murders
如果你曾看过2017全球暴力死亡报告 If you check out a report called Global Violent Deaths 2017
它列出了一些饱受战争摧残的国家 it lists countries that have been war-torn
而且那些暴力主要来源于 but also areas where the violence is mainly due to
我们所称的非武装冲突暴力犯罪 what we might call non-armed-conflict violent crime
排名最高的5个国家是 The 5 countries highest on the list were
叙利亚 萨尔瓦多 委内瑞拉 洪都拉斯和阿富汗 Syria El Salvador Venezuela Honduras and Afghanistan
如果上网搜索 Searching on the web
你可以从联合国毒品和犯罪问题办事处 you can find statistics
找到一些统计资料 from the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime
但是有些报道有些年头了 but some of these reports are a few years old
你会发现大多数 Most lists you'll find
目录上有我们刚提到的国家 contain the countries we just mentioned
但是你也可以把墨西哥的邻国 but you can also add Mexico's neighbors
添加到前十甚至前五的名单上 to the top ten or even top five list
比如伯利兹城和危地马拉 which are the countries of Belize and Guatemala
我们找到的最新资料 The latest reports we can find
显示洪都拉斯谋杀率为0.0428% put the Honduras murder rate at 42.8 murders per every 100,000
墨西哥为0.0227% and Mexico at 22.7
另一个资料告诉我们 Another source tells us
墨西哥的谋杀率是0.01635% it is 16.35 per 100,000
或者说20,762起蓄意杀人事件 or 20,762 intentional homicides in total
这一资料也显示美国的谋杀率为0.0048% The same source puts the USA tally at 4.88 per 100,000
或者说总共15,696起蓄意杀人事件 or 15,696 in total
2018年 Numbeo网站认为 For 2018 the website Numbeo puts
委内瑞拉的总体犯罪率最高 Venezuela at the top of its overall crime index
这使得其安全指数非常低 giving it a very poor safety rating
网站将墨西哥排在第32位 It puts Mexico in 32nd place
其他受游客欢迎的国家危险指数更高 Other countries popular with tourists are rated more dangerous
比如巴西 南非 牙买加 马来西亚 such as Brazil South Africa Jamaica Malaysia
阿根廷 柬埔寨和越南 Argentina Cambodia and Vietnam
社会进步指数 Something called the Social Progress Index
对墨西哥也给出了平均水平的安全率 also gives Mexico an average rating for safety
就墨西哥到底有多危险而言 In terms of how dangerous Mexico is
我们应视特定区域而定 we have to look at certain areas of the country
尽管存在我们刚提到的那些数据 Despite those statistics we just mentioned
CNN依然引用了墨西哥政府的数据 CNN cited Mexican government statistics that
告诫我们在最近和2017年 told us there was a massive hike in the murder rate
谋杀率有很大的上升 of late and in 2017
据报道有25,339人死于谋杀 it says 25,339 people were murdered
这些谋杀很大程度上与黑帮有关 It said these were largely gang-related murders
凶案高发区有格雷罗洲 哈里斯克州 and the murder hot spots were Guerrero Jalisco
西纳洛亚洲和下加利福尼亚州 Sinaloa and Baja California Su
如今 或许有一个事关外国游客的问题 Now perhaps one problem regarding foreign visitors
就是根据每个城市的全球谋杀案来看 is that two of Mexico's very popular tourist cities
两个墨西哥非常受欢迎的旅游城市 are first and third ranked
分别位于第一和第三名 in terms of global murders per city
第一名是洛斯卡布斯 Number one is Los Cabos
每10万人中就有111人被谋杀 at 111 murders per 100000
第三名是阿卡普尔科 and number three is Acapulco
每10万人中就有106人被谋杀 at 106 murders per 100000
根据美国新闻报道 According to U.S. news reports
这并没有阻止美国人蜂拥而至 this hasn't stopped Americans from flocking there
问题是 作为游客或是外籍人士 The question is how likely are you as a visitor or as an expat
你被卷入这种暴力事件的可能性有多大 to get caught-up in this violence
在旅游胜地普拉亚德尔卡门的一艘渡船 Well in 2018 the U.S. State Department
发生炸弹爆炸事件后 issued a security alert after a bomb explosion
美国国务院在2018年发布了安全警报 on a ferry in the popular resort town of Playa del Carmen
然而 国务院只给予墨西哥 However the same department only gives Mexico
二级的整体危险等级 a level two grade for danger overall
这意味着当你在那里的时候要小心 This means you should exercise caution when you are there
报告指出 The report states that
与帮派有关的犯罪不应影响到墨西哥的游客 gang-related crime should not affect visitors to the country
但是已有旁观者在枪击事件中受伤或死亡 but Bystanders have been injured or killed in shooting incidents
与此同时 At the same time
美国政府给一些地区以三级评级 the U.S. government gives some areas a level three rating
这意味着你可能不应该去那 which means you probably should not go there
因为帮派有时会阻塞道路。and that travelling from city to city in these areas can be dangerous
在这些地区的城市间旅游可能会有危险 due to gangs sometimes blocking the roads
美国政府给一些地区以四级评级 It gives some areas a level 4 rating
这意味着无论如何都不要去这些地区旅游 which means DO NOT VISIT for any reason
根据报道 在这些地区 In these areas you might be taken hostage
你可能会被扣为人质 or find yourself in the middle of a gun battle
或者发现自己陷入了枪战之中 according to the report
美国政府还说在这些地区 It also says that in these areas
有高风险的谋杀 武装抢劫 劫车 there's a high risk of murder armed robbery carjacking
绑架 勒索和性侵事件发生 kidnapping extortion and sexual assault
因此 我们被告知要不惜一切代价地远离 So at all costs we are told stay away from
科利马州 格雷罗州 米却肯州 the states of Colima Guerrero Michoacán
锡那罗亚州和塔毛利帕斯州 Sinaloa and Tamaulipas
这些地区都被评为四级危险区 These all get the level 4 rating
为了让你有安全意识 To give you an idea of safety
福布斯在2018年发表了一篇报道 Forbes ran a story in 2018 that stated
讲到越来越多的美国人被报道在墨西哥死于凶杀案 More Americans were reported killed by homicide in Mexico
比在国外所有其他国家 than the combined total of Americans
死于凶杀案的美国人的总和还要多 killed by homicide in every other country abroad
尽管如此 我们应该明白 We should understand though
墨西哥到处都是美国移民和游客 that Mexico is full of American expats and tourists
这篇文章引用了澳大利亚政府的警告 The same article cites Australian government warnings
告诉人们要意识到针对游客的暴力犯罪和抢劫 telling people to be aware that violent crime and robbery against visitors
在墨西哥的一些地方是很常见的 is common in some parts of Mexico
它接着说了扒窃也是很常见的 It goes on to say that pick-pocketing is also common
就像刁滑的墨西哥警察利用外地人一样 as are crooked Mexican cops taking advantage of outsiders
英国政府怎么看呢 What does the British government say
它说 即使在某一个美妙的海滩上 It says remain vigilant even if
你也要保持警惕 on one of those wonderful beaches
并提到美国政府告诉我们的坏州是不能去的禁区 and mentions the Bad States the US government tells us are no-go areas
英国政府说 即使在墨西哥城也要保持警惕 Even in Mexico City be vigilant says the UK government
它还补充说 but it also adds this
2016年间超过513800名英国公民去墨西哥旅游 Over 513800 British nationals visited Mexico in 2016
大多数游览都没出问题 Most visits are trouble-free
尽管如此 在听过我们刚刚的介绍后 Nonetheless after hearing what we've just told you
你可能会认为在托拉波拉 you could be thinking that
啜饮一杯冰镇果汁朗姆酒 sipping a Pina Colada in Tora Bora
比在一个阴暗的墨西哥小镇广场上 would be safer than singing along to La Cucaracha
注：LC 西班牙民歌 小蟑螂
唱La Cucaracha更安全 in a shady Mexican town square
英国政府说 Well the British government says
这只是一个研究问题 让你知道不应该去哪里 it's just a matter of research and knowing where you shouldn't go
暴力事件集中在特定地区 The violence is concentrated in specific areas
有些地区完全没有暴力事件发生 and some regions are almost completely spared
英国官方热线报道 is the UK official line
如果你在梅里达或墨西哥城闲逛 If you are hanging out in Merida or Mexico City
你遭受暴力和抢劫的机会都不会很高 your chance of being subjected to violence or robbery should not be high
但如果你在锡那罗亚定居 But should you settle down in Sinaloa
也就是臭名昭著的华金•古兹曼 the former stomping ground
注：华金是墨西哥大毒枭 世界级通缉犯
之前震撼一时的地方 of the notorious Joaquín 'El Chapo' Guzmán
事情可能就会不同了 things might be different
我们查看了一个提出这个问题的外籍人士论坛 We checked out an expat forum where that question was asked
幸运的是 and fortunately
一些住在锡那罗亚的美国侨民 some American expats living in Sinaloa
也在论坛上进行了回答 were there to answer
一个人写着 One person wrote
锡那罗亚并没有像美国媒体经常描述的那样 Sinaloa is not nearly as hostile and life-threatening
充满敌意和威胁生命 as often portrayed by the U.S. media
但是 它肯定不像旅行社所暗示的那样 but it certainly is not as safe unblemished and invulnerable
安全 无瑕疵而且无懈可击 as a travel agent might suggest
离那些小路远点 Stay off the back-roads
论坛上的人说 said the person
远离他所谓的内陆地区 and stay out of what he called the hinterlands
实际上 你能发现很多外籍故事都是关于 In fact you can find many expat stories about
在马扎特兰的锡那罗亚度假村生活有多美好 how great life is in the Sinaloan resort town of Mazatlán
一些外籍人士谈及友善好客的当地人 Some expats talk about the friendly and welcoming people
但他们并不否认暴力事件的存在 and while they don't deny there is violence
有些人说芝加哥和巴尔的摩等美国城市 some say American cities such as Chicago and Baltimore
也是相当危险的 are also quite dangerous
另一位驻马扎特兰的外籍人士写道 Another Mazatlan-based expat wrote
似乎是媒体和美国政府 It seems like the press and the US government
正在想方设法阻止人们去墨西哥度假 are going out of their way to discourage people from vacationing in Mexico
那些热爱这儿 居住在这儿的人 Those of us who live here who love it here
想知道美国为什么要这么做 wonder why
他补充说 He added
我采取常识性的预防措施 I take common sense precautions
并且睁大眼睛保持警惕 and keep my eyes open
但是 你知道的 无论我在哪我都会那么做的 But you know I do that wherever I am
一些外籍人士也提出 Some expats also pointed out
并且我们能够证实他们是对的 and we can verify that they are correct
墨西哥的强奸和袭击率远低于美国 that the rape and assault rate in Mexico is much lower than in the U.S.
据赫芬顿邮报报道 As the Huffington Post reports
尽管墨西哥有一些令人震惊的谋杀统计数据 in spite of Mexico having some startling murder statistics
你从美国的大多数报告中得不到的是统计论据 What you don't get from most reports in the US is statistical evidence
证明美国人在国内比在墨西哥 that Americans are less likely to
更容易遇到暴力事件 face violence in Mexico than at home
好的 所以这提供了一个相反的观点。Ok so this offers a counter view
现在让我们看看墨西哥人 Let's now see what Mexicans
对于他们国家安全性的看法 think about how safe their country is
我们研究了提出这个问题的果壳网 We looked at Quora where this question was posed
墨西哥人和非墨西哥人的回答都是一样的 and Mexicans and non-Mexicans all said the same thing
是的 去这个国家旅游很安全 Yes it's safe to travel in the country
胡安•拉米雷斯说 在有些地区要保持警惕 Juan Ramirez said use caution in some areas
但总的来说 他说 but generally he said
大多数你听到的人们去的地方 Most places you hear about that people go to
都像美国 西欧或者澳大利亚的 are just as safe as any travel destination
任何旅游地点一样安全 in the USA Western Europe or Australia
在其他国家还有另一大危险 There is another big danger in some countries
那就是交通事故 and that is dying while driving
在交通事故死亡方面 For traffic fatalities
墨西哥的死亡率低于每10万人中 Mexico falls under the world average of
有17.4人死亡的世界平均水平 17.4 deaths per 100,000
死亡人数略高于12人 at just over 12
我们可以找到的大多数 Most bloggers we can find
关于在墨西哥驾驶的博客都说 writing about driving in Mexico say
通常在墨西哥开车都是安全的 that it is generally safe
在墨西哥的其他恼人事可能包括疟疾或登革热 Other annoyances in Mexico could include getting malaria or dengue fever
据疾病防治中心说明 which is possible in certain areas of the country
虽然你不必太在意 according to the CDC
但这可能在墨西哥的一些地区出现 although you shouldn't be too concerned
对于需要留心的其他动物 As for other critters to watch out for
除了可怕的蚊子 besides the dreaded mosquito
墨西哥还有很多这类动物 蝎子 蜘蛛 Mexico has lots of them scorpions spiders
当你在玛雅丛林中行走时 and you might just meet a venomous snake
你可能会遇到一条毒蛇 when walking in the Maya jungle
再说一次 这不是你应该过分担心的事 Again it's not something you should be overly concerned about
你或许应该更加当心 You should probably be more concerned about
变成一个在最便宜的龙舌兰酒酒瓶里 becoming that drunk person that eats the worm
吃虫子的醉鬼 in the cheapest bottle of mezcal you could find
然后决定出去再参加一会派对 and then decides to go out and party some more
所以 最后 So in conclusion
政府网站非常确定 Government websites are quite sure
你应该远离某些地区 you should stay away from some areas
但是有些外籍人士并不赞同 but some expats disagree
帮派暴力可能不会以你所想的方式发生 Gang violence is likely not going to come your way
但是在任何地方都要保持警惕 but exercise some caution as you would anywhere
晚上在城市里醉醺醺地走来走去 Walking around drunk at night in cities
或者游荡到已知的黑帮频繁出现的地区 or wandering into territory where gangs are known to frequent
可能不是一个好主意 is probably not a good idea
在大多数情况下 人们都很友好而且好客 For the most part people are friendly and hospitable
从统计数据来看 游客应该是安全的 and tourists statistically should be safe
但也有一些游客受伤的事件 But there have been some incidences of tourists getting hurt
并且都与帮派暴力有关 and with all that gang violence
我们必须得接受 we must accept
我们可能在错误的时间待在了错误的地方 we could just be in the wrong place at the wrong time
由于这个原因 For this reason
我们将墨西哥的危险程度排在俄罗斯之上。we will put Mexico higher than Russia on the danger scale
如果你是墨西哥人 或者曾去过墨西哥 If you are Mexican or have been to mexico
