>Trump targets poor migrants
美貧困移民或難獲綠卡

The Trump administration took one of its most aggressive steps yet on Monday to target legal immigration, publishing new rules that could deny green cards to immigrants who use Medicaid, food stamps, housing vouchers or other forms of public assistance.
特朗普政府12日采取最為激進(jìn)的舉措之一，將合法移民作為打擊對象。根據(jù)美政府發(fā)布的新規(guī)，那些享受醫(yī)療補(bǔ)助、食品救濟(jì)券、住房補(bǔ)貼券或其他形式政府援助的移民或難以拿到綠卡。

The rule change would reinforce "ideals of self-sufficiency," officials said.
有官員表示，移民新規(guī)將強(qiáng)化"自給自足的理念"。

Anyone who relies on one or more publicly funded social safety net benefits is known as a "public charge".
任何依賴一項(xiàng)或多項(xiàng)公共社會保障福利的人都被視為"公共負(fù)擔(dān)"。

The "public charge rule" will take effect on Oct 15.
這項(xiàng)"公共負(fù)擔(dān)新規(guī)"將于10月15日生效。

Immigrants who are already permanent residents in the US are unlikely to be affected by the rule change.
已經(jīng)是美國永久居民的移民不太可能受到新規(guī)的影響。

It also does not apply to refugees and asylum applicants.
這項(xiàng)規(guī)定也不適用于難民和庇護(hù)申請人。

But applicants for visa extensions, green cards or US citizenship will be subject to the change.

>Plan on digital currency
央行數(shù)字貨幣'呼之欲出'

China's central bank is very close to launching its own digital currency after five years of research and development in the area, according to a senior official.
一位高級官員透露，經(jīng)過五年的研發(fā)，中國人民銀行數(shù)字貨幣已經(jīng)"呼之欲出"。

Mu Changchun, deputy director of the People's Bank of China's (PBOC) payments department, made the comments at a forum held Saturday in Yichun, Heilongjiang province.
中國人民銀行支付結(jié)算司副司長穆長春10日在黑龍江伊春舉辦的一個(gè)論壇上發(fā)表了此番言論。

The PBOC set up a research team in 2014 to explore the possibility of launching a digital currency to cut the costs of circulating traditional paper money and boost policymakers' control on the money supply.
央行2014年成立專門研究團(tuán)隊(duì)，探究推出數(shù)字貨幣的可能性，其目的是減少傳統(tǒng)紙幣流通成本、提高政策制定者對貨幣供給的控制力。

Mu said the issuance of the digital currency will rely on a "two-tier" system in which both the central bank and financial institutions will be legitimate issuers.
穆長春表示，央行的數(shù)字貨幣采取雙層運(yùn)營體系，央行和商業(yè)銀行均是法定發(fā)行方。

He also said that the digital currency would not solely rely on blockchain technology as current blockchain technology would not be able to handle transaction volumes in China.
數(shù)字貨幣將不會僅僅依賴區(qū)塊鏈，因?yàn)槟壳暗膮^(qū)塊鏈技術(shù)無法滿足全國范圍內(nèi)的交易需要。
