Prime Minister, Chinese Ambassador to The Netherlands, Vice Chairman of WCCO, Mr David Edwards-May, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen.
It is an also a great pleasure for me to accompany our former Prime Minister Brian Cowen to attend this World Canal Towns and Scenic Areas Exchange in this beautiful city of Giethoorn.
As Prime Minister Brian has said, the Irish canals network had been established in the 18th and 19th centuries as a means of freight carriage with routes largely linking the main ports in cities such as Dublin with agricultural suppliers to the west and south. However the introduction of the railways and road transport saw the demise of the canals.
The establishment of Waterways Ireland in 1999 gave a new impetus to the maintenance and to the restructure of the canals network in Ireland and as the statutory function explains their use is now principally for recreational purposes.
Waterways Ireland successfully market and promote the inland waterways as a tourism and recreational resource for Ireland. They actively work with sporting, recreational and tourism bodies in promoting activities and events on and along the waterway and to encourage use within local communities in order to imbed the waterway into a natural way of life within rural Ireland.
We have now developed blueways along the canals with Walking and cycling trails.
So what of the future?
Government investment will be concentrated on the recreational and tourism potential of the waterways and their hinterlands. They link with our Greenway walking and cycle trails. This has led to an explosion of activity on our canals and it has proven to be the key attraction for foreign visitors to Ireland.
Cruise hire, angling, private boating and water related recreational activities, together with walking and cycling Greenway trails provide an estimated €500 million to the Irish economy.
So the future for Ireland’s canals and waterways is bright, concentrating on the recreational and tourism sector, generating new businesses and connections throughout the country from which local rural settlements were established.
Today the inland waterways continue to reach deep into the rural landscape of Ireland, and this is where they make most economic impact.This gives our visitors the most authentic experience of Ireland.
But coming to this beautiful city of Giethoorn, it is obvious we have a lot to learn.
I believe, as the Prime Minister and Ambassador have said there is so much to be gained from building relationships between our three countries, creating friendships, understanding cultures and in particular pushing back on the increasing hostilities that are becoming all to prevalent in our modern world.
I look forward to working with all of you in reaching this objective. I thank WCCO for initiating this conference, and I would also like to congratulate you, the representatives, on the important agreements you are about to sign.
弗兰克·费依演讲稿
尊敬的总理、中国驻荷兰大使、世界运河历史文化城市合作组织（WCCO）副主席大卫·爱德华兹-梅先生，各位尊贵的来宾，女士们、先生们：
能陪同爱尔兰前总理布莱恩·考恩来到羊角村这座美丽的城市参加世界运河城镇与景区交流活动，我深感荣幸。
正如考恩总理所言，爱尔兰运河网络始建于18至19世纪，最初作为连接都柏林等主要港口与西部南部农产品产区的货运通道。但随着铁路与公路运输的兴起，运河逐渐式微。1999年爱尔兰水道局的成立为运河网络的维护与重构注入了新活力，如今其法定职能已明确转向以休闲娱乐为主要用途。
爱尔兰水道局成功将内河航道打造为国家旅游休闲资源，积极与体育、休闲及旅游机构合作，策划水域及沿岸活动，推动社区参与，使运河自然融入爱尔兰乡村生活方式。我们现已开发出集步行与骑行道于一体的“蓝道”体系。
展望未来，政府投资将聚焦水道及周边区域的旅游休闲潜力，与现有的"绿道"步行骑行系统形成联动。这种开发模式已引爆运河沿线活力，成为吸引国际游客的核心要素。游船租赁、垂钓、私人游艇等水上休闲活动，结合绿道骑行徒步项目，每年为爱尔兰经济贡献约5亿欧元收益。
爱尔兰运河的未来蓝图清晰可见——以旅游休闲产业为核心，在全国范围内催生新业态、构建新联结，振兴传统乡村聚居区。如今这些深入田园腹地的水道，正持续释放着最大的经济效能，为游客提供最纯粹的爱尔兰体验。
但来到美丽的羊角村，我们深知仍有诸多待学之处。正如首相和大使所言，加强三国联系、增进文化理解、抵制当今世界日益蔓延的敌对情绪，将为我们带来巨大收益。我期待与诸位携手实现这一目标。感谢WCCO开展本次活动，也对你们各位代表即将签署重要协议表示祝贺。
