一项改善仁川国际机场等待遣返的外国人餐食的提案在移民官员中引发分歧。一线官员提出了安全方面的担忧，一些人则质疑，对因违法被责令离开韩国的外国人而言，提供更好的食物是否合适。
A proposal to upgrade meals for foreigners awaiting deportation at Incheon International Airport has divided immigration officials, with frontline officers raising safety concerns and some questioning whether better food is appropriate for those ordered to leave South Korea for violating the law.
据移民主管部门周日表示，韩国法务部仁川机场出入境管理局正在考虑向经该机场等待遣返的外国人提供机上餐盒。
According to immigration authorities on Sunday, the Incheon Airport Immigration Office under the Ministry of Justice is considering providing in-flight meal boxes to foreign nationals awaiting deportation through the airport.
被责令离境的外国人通常会在当地出入境管理所确认其非法停留并完成相关手续后，被送往仁川机场。此后，他们将在指定的离境候机区等待登机。
Foreign nationals ordered to leave the country are generally transferred to Incheon airport after local immigration offices confirm their illegal stay and complete the necessary procedures. After that, they remain in a designated departure waiting area until their flights.
目前，等待遣返的人可以领取由当地出入境管理所提供面包和饮料。仁川机场出入境管理局正研究直接向他们提供餐食，以航空餐取代现有简易食品，并认为这是最可行的方案。
Those awaiting deportation are currently provided with bread and drinks supplied by local immigration offices. The Incheon Airport Immigration Office is now seeking to provide meals directly, replacing the basic food with airline-style meals, considering them the most practical option.
该局认为，面对遣返的人在离境前应该吃上一顿像样的饭。无论从品质、机场安保和配送流程，还是从兼顾不同文化及饮食需求的角度看，售价为6910韩元（5美元）的航空餐都是合理的选择。
The office views that those facing deportation should receive a decent meal before leaving the country, with the 6,910 won (US$5) airline-style meals seen as a reasonable option in terms of quality, airport security and delivery procedures, as well as accommodating different cultural and dietary needs.
在某些情况下，因未能充分说明访问目的而被拒绝入境、等待遣返回国的外国人已经能够获得航空餐。该局目前正寻求海关批准，以便向离境候机区内的被遣返人员提供同样的餐食。
Airline-style meals are already provided in some cases to foreign nationals awaiting repatriation after being denied entry for failing to adequately explain the purpose of their visit. The office is now seeking customs approval to provide the same meals to deportees in the departure waiting area.
然而，该提案在移民官员中引发了分歧：因违法被责令离开韩国的外国人，是否应该与被拒绝入境的旅客享用同样的餐食。
The proposal, however, has divided immigration officials on whether foreign nationals ordered to leave South Korea for violating the law should receive the same meals as travellers who are simply denied entry.
一线工作人员将安全列为首要问题，并警告称随餐提供的餐具可能被用作武器。之所以更加担忧，是因为被遣返人员不仅包括无证移民，还包括有犯罪记录、已在韩国服刑并等待遣返的外国公民。
Frontline officers raised safety as the primary concern, warning that utensils provided with the meals could be used as weapons. Such concerns are heightened by the fact that the deportees include not only undocumented migrants but also foreign nationals with criminal records who are awaiting removal after serving prison sentences in South Korea.
有人还担心，在出发候机区等封闭空间内，食物可能会变质。另一些人认为，向无证移民提供每份近7000韩元的餐食，可能传递错误信号，并削弱严格执行移民法的力度。
Concerns have also been raised about the risk of food spoiling in enclosed spaces such as the departure waiting area. Others argue that providing meals costing nearly 7,000 won each to undocumented migrants could send the wrong message and undermine the strict enforcement of immigration law.
仁川机场入境审查局表示，在被遣返人员登机前，政府仍负有照管和保障他们的责任，因此必须在此期间为他们提供充足的食物。
The Incheon Airport Immigration Office said the government remained responsible for the custody and welfare of deportees until they boarded their flights and therefore they needed to be fed adequately during that period.
该局在审查盒饭方案的同时，也在考虑三明治和汉堡等更简单的替代食品，因为候机区的设施有限。由于没有桌子或其他家具，如果该方案得以实施，被遣返人员将不得不坐在地板上吃盒饭。本文最初由
While reviewing the boxed meal plan, the office is also considering simpler alternatives such as sandwiches and hamburgers, given the limited facilities in the waiting area. With no tables or other furnishings available, deportees would have to eat boxed meals on the floor if the plan goes ahead. This article was first published by
