When the US showed the flag...







【縛雞之論】英文拷到 G / D 找中文翻譯
Maybe I am wrong, last time we saw the national flag of the US stood in Taiwan’s Presidential Hall is the visit of the US President Eisenhower on 18 June 1960. 
With exceptions of the communist countries, the host and the national flag of the stands at the right-hand of the picture, while the visit country at the left.
What catches my eyes is the US flag is at the position of the host.
There was nick name “Big Building,” in which comprised of five US agencies: the Economic Cooperation Agency (ECA), Council on U.S. Aid (CUSA), the Sino-American Joint Commission on Rural Reconstruction (JCRR), the J.G. White Engineering Corporation, and the United States Information Agency (USIA).  The national flag of the US flew at the top of the “Big Building” since its opening of on June 2nd, 1949 and the US flag was at the right-hand of the picture.
Readers can see more picture that the host and the flag are at the right-hand while the visit left-hand.
So the question are:
1. In the picture, there are always two ROC flags in the Presidential Hall, even the host receive the visiting foreign guests.  The Taipei Guest House (TAG) is an outbuilding to the Presidential Hall to held state Banquet for the foreign guests.  Why the US show the flag today (2023/04/08)?
2.  Why the national flag of the US and the ROC are at the right-hand and the left-hand respectively, suggesting the principal and the secondary?
The US flag here and now, then, is a response to Beijing’s military drill around Taiwan.

  1. 網路上的。
    在國內對於基本「國際禮儀」的參考資料的官方版本,多是來自外交部發行的「國際禮儀手冊」,其中對於國旗懸掛或放置的位置原則,就面對觀眾的方位來說(觀眾在台下來看的話,是在觀眾的左方),指出地主國國旗懸掛一律居右方尊位。
    (內文提到,有些國家是「讓人不讓旗」,地主國國旗要放「右」,主人卻可以站左;某些國家「讓人又讓旗」,地主國國旗都放「左」,主人也在左)

    1. 多謝,掛旗禮儀的確更清楚了。
      根據文章顯示,掛旗的確是有幾種系統。
      從國旗、主角站的位置,可以判斷出照片場合的主要意義:誰接待、誰來訪。

      但我感覺,美系比較合理,那是因為,主人。
      主人與客人站立握手:
      若主人在畫面右方,佔比大(尊),
      反之,客人站在畫面左方,握手時右手會橫過肚前,顯得較為侷促(卑)。

      各自站在本國旗前方,當然才能傳達出畫面的尊卑。

      所以,感覺上美系掛法佔絕大多數。
