同時(shí)，首部國(guó)家公祭地方法規(guī)《南京市國(guó)家公祭保障條例》也于今日正式實(shí)施。

The regulation was approved at a session of the Standing Committee of the Nanjing Municipal People's Congress in late November and is also the first local regulation of its kind.

該條例在11月底由江蘇省人大常委會(huì)通過(guò)，是我國(guó)首部國(guó)家公祭地方法規(guī)。

It has stipulated the etiquettes and norms on the National Memorial Day, such as the “one minute of silence for pedestrians” as well as “vehicles including automobiles, trains and ships sound air siren in tribute.”

條例規(guī)定了國(guó)家公祭日活動(dòng)期間的禮儀和規(guī)范，比如：行人默哀一分鐘，機(jī)動(dòng)車、火車、船舶鳴笛致哀，等等。

為保持國(guó)家公祭活動(dòng)和國(guó)家公祭場(chǎng)所的嚴(yán)肅性，《條例》規(guī)定：在市人民政府通告規(guī)定的國(guó)家公祭活動(dòng)期間，國(guó)家公祭設(shè)施周邊禁止一切公共娛樂(lè)活動(dòng)(entertainment activities will be banned at the public areas where memorial events take place)。

《條例》規(guī)定，禁止任何單位和個(gè)人歪曲、否認(rèn)南京大屠殺史實(shí)( speeches distorting or denying the facts of the Nanjing Massacre)，侮辱、誹謗南京大屠殺死難者、幸存者(insulting or defaming the Nanjing Massacre victims and survivors)，編造、傳播含有上述內(nèi)容的有損國(guó)家和民族尊嚴(yán)、傷害人民感情的言論或者信息(conjuring messages to harm the nation's dignity and the people's feelings)。禁止在國(guó)家公祭設(shè)施、抗戰(zhàn)遺址和抗戰(zhàn)紀(jì)念館等地使用具有日本軍國(guó)主義象征意義的軍服、旗幟、圖標(biāo)或者相關(guān)道具，拍照、錄制視頻(taking photos and videos in the uniforms of Japanese invaders at memorial sites )或者通過(guò)網(wǎng)絡(luò)對(duì)上述行為公開傳播。

2014年2月，十二屆全國(guó)人大常委會(huì)第七次會(huì)議經(jīng)表決通過(guò)，將12月13日設(shè)立為南京大屠殺死難者國(guó)家公祭日。

設(shè)立南京大屠殺死難者國(guó)家公祭日是為了悼念南京大屠殺死難者和所有在日本帝國(guó)主義侵華戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)期間慘遭日本侵略者殺戮的死難同胞(to mourn the victims of the massacre and all those killed during the Japanese aggression against China)，揭露日本侵略者的戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)罪行(exposing the war crimes of Japanese invaders)，牢記侵略戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)給中國(guó)人民和世界人民造成的深重災(zāi)難，表明中國(guó)人民反對(duì)侵略戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)、捍衛(wèi)人類尊嚴(yán)、維護(hù)世界和平的堅(jiān)定立場(chǎng)(Chinese people's stance of combating aggression and safeguarding human dignity and world peace)。
