据菲律宾国家新闻局（PIA）报道，由于东南亚正面临美以对伊朗战争导致的能源供应中断，菲律宾正加紧推进连接文莱、印度尼西亚、马来西亚和菲律宾的四国电力互联互通项目。
The Philippines is pushing to accelerate a four-nation electricity interconnection project linking Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines as Southeast Asia confronts energy supply disruptions stemming from the US-Israeli war against Iran, according to the state-owned Philippine Information Agency (PIA).
能源部长莎伦·加林（Sharon Garin）周三在马尼拉举行的第44届东盟（东南亚国家联盟）能源部长会议上宣布了这一倡议。
Energy Secretary Sharon Garin announced the initiative Wednesday during the 44th ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) Ministers on Energy Meeting in Manila.
该项目将通过高压海底电缆连接各国电网，实现四国之间的跨境电力贸易。
The project would connect electricity networks through high-voltage submarine cables, allowing cross-border power trading among the four countries.
加林将该倡议描述为菲律宾通往拟议中的东盟电网的主要门户，此外还有一个连接老挝、泰国、马来西亚和新加坡的现有电力贸易安排。
Garin described the initiative as the Philippines' principal gateway to the proposed ASEAN Power Grid, alongside an existing electricity trading arrangement linking Laos, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore.
加林表示：“每一次互联互通，都让邻国山脉中的水力发电点亮跨境医院的那一天更近了一步。”
"Every interconnection brings that day closer when hydropower from one neighbor's mountains lights a hospital across the border,” said Garin.
新加坡人力部长兼贸工部第二部长陈诗龙强调，需要制定管辖海底电缆的通用法规，包括安装、维护和基础设施保护。
Singapore's Energy Minister Tan See Leng stressed the need for common regulations governing submarine cables, including installation, maintenance and infrastructure protection.
在马尼拉召开的此次会议汇聚了东盟11个成员国的能源部长，共同探讨区域电力互联互通、能源安全以及基础设施项目的融资问题。
The meeting in Manila brings together energy ministers from ASEAN's 11 member states to discuss regional electricity connectivity, energy security and financing for infrastructure projects.
继2月份美以袭击伊朗以及霍尔木兹海峡关闭之后，菲律宾成为第一个宣布进入国家能源紧急状态的国家。小费迪南德·马科斯总统于3月24日发布了该声明。
The Philippines became the first country to declare a national energy emergency following the US-Israeli attacks on Iran and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz in February. President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. issued the declaration on March 24.
根据东盟能源中心的数据，东盟50%以上的进口原油来自中东，而供应中断可能会威胁到相当于地区石油消费量近28%的供应量。
More than 50% of ASEAN's imported crude oil comes from the Middle East, while supply disruptions could threaten volumes equivalent to nearly 28% of regional oil consumption, according to the ASEAN Centre for Energy.
