【Idioms and Proverbs】拆东墙补西墙

拆东墙补西墙

[chāi dōng qiáng bǔ xī qiáng]

rob Peter to pay Paul

把资金从一个基金会抽到另一个基金会绝不是解决问题的办法，那不过是“拆东墙补西墙”罢了。

bǎ zījīn cóng yīgè jījīnhuì chōu dào lìng yīgè jījīnhuì jué bùshì jiějué wèntí de bànfǎ, nà bùguò shì “chāi dōng qiáng bǔ xī qiáng” bàle

It is no solution to the difficulty to transfer money from one fund to the other; that is merely robbing Peter to pay Paul.
