• [2010 June 25, “新北市英譯 蔡英文朱立倫中意New Taipei City [An English Translation for '新北市': Tsai Ing-wen and Eric Chu Like 'New Taipei City']”, in Liberty Times‎^[3], archived from the original on 19 May 2015:

  蔡英文說，英文譯名是便於外國人閱讀、認識地名，光憑幾個漢字直接翻譯成「Xinbei City」，她要是外國人，根本不曉得這個單字代表的意義。「New Taipei City」代表一個新發展出來的都會地區，以美國為例，新墨西哥（New Mexico）或新澤西（New Jersey），都代表新開闢的現代都會地方，「New Taipei City」是很好的音譯。

  Tsai Ing-wen said that English translations are for the convenience of foreigners in reading and recognizing place names. If she were a foreigner, a translation that solely relied on the direct translation of a few Chinese characters to create "Xinbei City" would simply be unable to convey the meaning behind those characters. [By contrast, the term] "New Taipei City" represents a newly developed metropolitan region. Using America as an example, [places like] New Mexico or New Jersey all represent newly developed, modern metropolitan areas, [hence] "New Taipei City" is a great transliteration.]
