The incompetent boat pilot blames the river for his shortcomings
bù huì chēng chuán lài hé wān
不會撐船賴河灣 literally translates as: [One who] cannot steer the boat blames the bends in the river.
Figuratively, this means: One who is incompetent always tries to shift the blame elsewhere.
This is similar to the English idiom, “a poor workman/craftsman blames his tools.”
Responsibility
責任 is the Chinese, Japanese, and Korean word for “responsibility.”
責任 can also refer to someone who is willing to take the blame when things go wrong (instead of making excuses or passing the blame to someone else). While this is a noble idea, I think it is getting rare these days in both eastern and western cultures.
Also associated with the idea of "duty."
