My comment:
(a) 輪轉 Hoklo for "fluent"
(b) The report is based on
08TAIPEI1093
http://billypan.com/wiki/08TAIPEI1093
("SUBJECT: PRESIDENT MA YING-JEOU: AN INTRODUCTORY PROFILE Classified By: AIT Director Stephen M. Young, Reasons: 1.4 (b/d);" dated July 24, 2008)
The date was just two months after his inauguration. However, the cable is just garden variety (an English phrase meaning "ordinary"), in my view.
(c) The Chinese-language subject in the Wiki page is 馬英九凡事猶豫又缺乏擔當，形象都是媒體塑造, which I assume is translated by somebody (but I can not tell who translated the title AND the summary) and the English-language subject is not the same as the Chinese-language subject.
(d) In fact, the text of the diplomatic cable was qciting his critics when saying he was indecisive.
"Critics of the president attribute Ma's current difficulties to what they say is his longstanding problem of indecisive and ineffective leadership, especially when facing crises." paragraph 1, Summary.
"Ma's detractors argue he is more media-constructed image than real substance, claiming that he is an indecisive and weak leader who avoids confronting difficult problems and panics in the face of crisis." paragraph 8, text.
