【大紀元11月20日訊】茲有來自澳洲、中國、斐濟、香港、印尼、日本、新西蘭、菲律賓和新加坡等國的，代表已有國際筆會成立之國家的筆會，組成亞太地區作家網（Asia and Pacific Writers Network，APWN）並參與「跨越邊界：全球性和諧之創造性戰略」（論壇）的全體作家，於2005年11月9日在澳大利亞墨爾本通過如下決議：
一、建立亞太地區作家網（APWN）翻譯中心，對本地區任何一種或所有語種的翻譯文學作品進行收集、整理、歸類，將之翻譯為中文、英文及馬來文，廣加傳播與推廣；在亞太地區作家網網站（http://www.apwn.net/）在建立專區發表該類翻譯作品；與其它致力於翻譯的機構建立密切的合作關係；竭盡所能使本地區的作家間能相互閱讀各自的作品；
二、繼續不斷地致力於喚起對中國、越南和本地區其它國家內被關押的作家的關注；
三、致力於為使用匿名的作家免受迫害而阻止雅虎和其它電子郵箱提供者披露用戶信息，包括要求各國政府通過立法保證電子通信的安全，集體控告雅虎香港控股公司（Yahoo! Holdings (Hong Kong) Ltd.），尋求雅虎向師濤的家屬賠償經濟損失，發起用戶抵制雅虎，用電子郵件發送技術向雅虎大部份用戶發佈師濤案信息，持續爭取媒體對抵制雅虎行動的關注；
四、向與亞太地區作家網相關的還未吸收記者加入的筆會提出建議，吸收記者為筆會成員，這不僅因為記者也是寫作者，也同時可以使本組織與媒體間的聯繫更為廣泛；
五、亞太地區作家網承認太平洋是獨立於亞洲之外的單獨地區，並將致力於吸收更多的太平洋地區的作家加入，以使太平洋和亞洲地區的成員數量達到平衡；
六、亞太地區作家網將致力於吸收本地區其它國家的作家，尤其是被邊緣化的作家，如澳洲及新西蘭的土著作家，以及太平洋地區的傳統的口頭文學作家；
七、感謝墨爾本筆會將亞太地區諸多作家吸引至本次大會及亞太地區作家網所作的值得後人學習的努力。此種努力部份實現了1999年於波蘭華沙舉行的第66屆國際筆會世界性大會上關於在亞洲地區召開一次世界性大會的決議。該項由加拿大筆會、堪培拉筆會、哥倫比亞筆會、日本筆會、墨爾本筆會、墨西哥筆會、新西蘭筆會、柏斯筆會、菲律賓筆會、聖米格爾筆會、悉尼筆會、台北筆會、泰國筆會和美西筆會發起的決議在2000年於俄羅斯莫斯科舉行的第67屆（國際筆會）世界大會中再次得到確認。
八、感謝亞洲連接（Asialink）、維多利亞作家協會、豐田基金會、日本基金會、瑪雅基金會（Myer Foundation）、維多利亞藝術家協會、墨爾本市政府、國家藝術委員會、新加坡和所有使本次大會得以順利召開的工作人員和志願人員；
九、將本決議案發送倫敦國際筆會總部留檔並方便其採取相應行動。

附：決議案原文
We participants in Beyond Borders: Creative Strategies for Global Harmony, consisting of writers from Australia, China, Fiji, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, New Zealand, the Philippines, Singapore, and, representing International PEN Centres in those countries where there is one established, and constituting the Asia and Pacific Writers Network (APWN), do hereby resolve, on this 9th day of November, 2005, in Melbourne, Australia:
1. That an APWN Translation Centre be established, to identify, list, promote, and disseminate translations of literary works from any and all of the languages in the region into Chinese, English, and Malay; to set aside a section of the APWN website for the virtual publication of such translations; to work closely with other organizations devoted to translations; and to do any and all appropriate actions in order to ensure that writers in the region are able to read each other;
2. That efforts be made to continue calling attention to the situation of writers in prison in China, Vietnam, and other countries in the region;
3. That efforts be made to stop Yahoo! and other email providers from revealing the identities of writers working with pseudonyms in order to avoid persecution, such efforts to include lobbying governments to pass legislation to ensure secrecy of email information, the filing of class suits against Yahoo! Holdings (Hong Kong) Ltd. to help compensate the family of Shi Tao, the promotion of consumer boycotts against Yahoo!, the use of e-mail forwarding techniques to disseminate information about the Yahoo! case to the most number of Yahoo! email users, and the continuation of the campaign for public awareness through media;
4. That PEN Centres affiliated with APWN be asked to consider including journalists among their members, if they have not already done so, not only because journalists are writers, but also to ensure greater access to media for the organization;
5. That APWN recognizes the Pacific as a separate region to Asia, and will work to include more writers from the Pacific in the network to ensure that there is an equal partnership between Asia and Pacific.
6. That APWN exert efforts to include writers from other countries in the region, particularly marginalized writers, such as indigenous writers in Australia and New Zealand and writers from the Pacific working within oral literary traditions;
7. That Melbourne PEN be thanked for its exemplary efforts to bring together writers from various parts of Asia and the Pacific to this meeting, as well as into the network itself, such efforts being partly the realization of a Resolution to hold a World Congress in Asia in the 66th World Congress of International PEN in Warsaw, Poland, in 1999, and confirmed in a meeting in the 67th World Congress in Moscow, Russia, in 2000, initiated at that time by the Canadian Centre, Canberra Centre, Colombian Centre, Japanese Centre, Melbourne Centre, Mexican Centre, New Zealand Centre, Perth Centre, Philippine Centre, San Miguel de Allende Centre, Sydney Centre, Taipei Chinese Centre, Thai Centre, and U.S.A. West Centre;
8. That Asialink, the Victorian Writers Centre, Toyota Foundation, Japan Foundation, Myer Foundation, Arts Victoria, City of Melbourne and National Arts Council, Singapore, and all the workers and volunteers be thanked for their support, which has made this meeting possible;
9. That these resolutions be forwarded to the headquarters of International PEN in London for its information and appropriate action.
