A: I'm disappointed the numbers have dropped off so rapidly, but I'm not surprised, for this reason: when we introduced our new policy in 1991, the number of immigrants dropped off quite significantly--very similar to what's happened in the last few months--as people started to study what was happening, and came to understand the new criteria.
答：我很失望這個數字下降得這麼快，但是我並不驚訝，因為我們在一九九一年開始實施新的移民辦法時，移民人數也是同樣明顯地下跌，這是由於人們需要時間研究新的變化，新的標準。
