声明原文：
故宫博物院院长王旭东向公众致歉
近期发生的“开车进故宫”事件引发社会高度关注，引起公众对故宫文物保护的担忧，我代表故宫博物院再次向社会公众诚挚道歉！
1月13日，经过故宫博物院批准的闭馆日活动有200余人参加。因原定停车场车位已满，我院相关部门引导车辆停放时，临时改变停车位置，未严格执行报批的接待方案，将原定的西华门内西河沿停车场，变更为午门内金水河南侧临时停车场。该区域地面是历年来不断更新的现代材料，多年来一直作为闭馆时段的车辆通道和闭馆日活动的临时停车场所。
More than 200 people participated in the Palace Museum's closed day activity on January 13, Wang said in a statement on the museum's official Weibo account. The designated parking lot was full, and they moved it to the palace's main square which was not part of the approved plan. 
此次事件反映出我院在内部管理和社会服务中存在的短板不足。经研究决定，对负有领导责任的故宫博物院分管副院长和保卫处处长停职检查。我院将汲取教训，以此为戒，全面加强管理，认真进行整改。对故宫内所有车辆通道、停放场所进行排查，确保不对故宫文物造成损害，确保故宫安全，全力守护好故宫，为社会提供更多更好的公共服务。
Wang also noted the incident reflected the shortcomings of internal management, and held the senior executives accountable. The museum's deputy director and head of security were suspended, without giving further details about the two, according to the statement. 

The palace head also vowed to strengthen management, as the incident served as a lesson. Vehicles driving through and parking at the Palace Museum shall be inspected to prevent further damage of the cultural relic, Wang said.
