黄来旺呈孙中山建议书 (1911年12月)

(原文)

SUGGESTIONS ONLY

(1)If the Chung Wah Republic is formed we should recognize God as our Guide, and in all our Public Schools and Institutions should acknowledge Him as our Supreme Ruler.Also the adoption of the Western Calendar.

(2)In order to keep other powers from taking mean advantage of our present weakness, we should try and induce one European Power at least, to join us into an offensive and defensive Alliance.Although America at present has no desire to join with any nation we should try her first.

(3)Republican ideas and advantages should in future be taught in all schools.Our children must be compelled to attend public free schools.

(4)Ask all our people both at home and abroad to form Navy and Military Leagues.

(5)Freedom of religions and speech be accorded to all classes, both Chinese and Manchus.

(6)Seeing that this Revolutionary Movement was promoted by Chinese abroad our Government should do all it can to protect their interest in all foreign countries.Chinese Christians with ability should be appointed to represent their countrymen in all Christian Countries.The reason is that the Christians in the Eurpean coutries will take more interest and more notice of what such representative says.

(7)The Government should give every inducement to all Chinese abroad who possess Western ideas and educations to return home and help to administrate all affairs in our Country.

(8)Most likely Japan or some other powers will try and take advantage of our present weakness in the same way as Italy does to Turkey, we should at once do all we can to strengthen our Navy and Military position.

(9)In forming Parliamentary Government it might be advisable to study the way the Australian Commonwealth governs her different states, as well as America governs hers.

(10)Seeing that most of our people at present cannot read or write, each Province should appoint a board, consisting of a number of able men to preach the principles of Republicanism, and advise the people as to how they can best serve their country, by giving and helping towards making our nation a great power for good.

附:黄来旺所提10条建议

1.如果中华共和国建立,我们应该承认上帝为我们的主。在所有共和国学校和机构中将他视作至上的统治者。还要采用西历。

2.为防止其他列强利用我们目前的困难,我们应该至少说服一个欧洲列强与我们建立一个攻防联盟。尽管美国目前不想与任何一个国家结盟,我们也要首先努力争取它。

3.将来应该在所有学校进行共和的观念和利益的教育。儿童应强制进入公立免费学校。

4.要求所有在家或在外的人参加海军和军事联盟。

5.所有人,包括汉人和满人,都拥有宗教信仰自由和言论自由。

6.由于这次革命运动是由海外中国人推动的,我们的政府应尽所能保护他们在海外的利益。有能力的中国基督徒应被派往各个信基督教的国家作为他们国人的代表。原因是在欧洲各国的基督徒会对这样的代表所说的东西更感兴趣且更上心。

7.政府应该鼓励所有接受西方观念和教育的中国华侨回国帮助管理国家事务。

8.很可能日本或其他列强会利用我们目前的困难,和意大利对付土耳其一样。我们应该立即尽我们所能,加强我们的海军和军事力量。

9.可参照澳大利亚联邦和美国管理其不同的州实行议会制。

10.鉴于目前我们的大多数人民不能读和写,每个省应派一个代表团,包括一定数量的有能力的人去宣讲共和主义的原则,并给人民怎样才能更好地为祖国服务的建议,以助于我们的国家建设成一个伟大的强国。
