求影片內容英文問題 〈菲律賓腔〉
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXg9CFraPCo

這是菲國當時遣送我國的嫌犯到大陸,而派遣特使羅哈斯來台說明
我聽到他講英文有點傻眼,有沒有人聽的懂他的菲律賓腔??
1.請給我原文 在0.32秒~0.43秒的部分
2.另外1.12秒的那位男記者問的問題
3.還有羅哈斯的回答
4.和楊部長說的不太一定〈It is not ??????〉
總共4個問題 謝囉
請問大師
羅哈斯說I'm not aware that uh, that uh, I will be meeting your president tomorrow.
是翻成〝 我不知道我明天將會見總統〞 嗎?? 謝謝

1.請給我原文 在0.32秒~0.43秒的部分
記者: What is the possibility of formal apology?
R: That matter has been brought to our attention by the minister, and that is something that is not in my pay.
這件事以經由部長告知我們,但這事並不在我的權責(pay)內.
2.另外1.12秒的那位男記者問的問題
記者: What are you going to talk to our president about?
3.還有羅哈斯的回答
I'm not aware that uh, that uh, I will be meeting your president tomorrow.
4.和楊部長說的不太一定〈It is not ??????〉
It's not quite certain yet.

He is a diplomat with poor mastery of English, plus his demeanor is strange in more ways than one.

When you're trying to get out of a tough question, "it's not within my pay grade". It means: ask someone else that gets paid more than I do, don't ask me!!!

Thanks to Master Lion English for the comments. I have had quite a long history of dealing with people from the Philippines, they tend to pronounce P with B. F with P.
I hope I'm not wrong in this case, although I'm quite sure it's "my pay" he had said.

版主,報歉沒看到你的補充發問:是翻成〝 我不知道我明天將會見你們的總統〞如上.

not aware也就是說不知道的意思,只是比較文雅一點.

Jim, you've done it again. A great job as usual.
See if my understanding makes sense. I think this guy was saying that an apology was not "in my mandate".

master Jim+1! I just have the doubt about "in my pay". I could NOT hear it very clearly at the end of what he said, but you have pointed it out to be "in my pay". I just wonder, can this be used in a diplomatic manner?

"a diplomat with poor mastery of English", well said, I have the same impression about this person. After all, how can he be a diplomat with this kind of English. I think, Taiwan shall reject him at the first place.
