意味

強く非難するほどではない／理解できる範囲だ

厚非 = 厚 (heavily) + 非 (criticise/condemn). The expression means 'there is nothing one can heavily condemn'. Often used in analytical commentary to acknowledge pragmatic trade-offs or understandable motivations. Implies measured tolerance rather than enthusiastic approval. Commonly followed by a 'but' clause addressing remaining concerns.

正しい言い方

• 市场竞争激烈时，公司先扩核心业务、暂缓非战略投资，从商业理性看无可厚非。(With fierce market competition, the company first expanded its core business and delayed non-strategic investment, which is understandable from a business perspective.)
• 政策制定者在两种合理目标之间做出取舍，这样的权衡在政策实践中无可厚非，关键在于决策过程是否透明，且结果是否真正符合公共利益。(Policy-makers making trade-offs between two legitimate objectives is not seriously blameworthy in the practice of governance; the key question is whether the decision-making process is transparent and whether the outcome truly serves the public interest.)

避ける言い方

• 无可厚非 to mean outright approval or praise — it specifically means 'cannot be strongly condemned' rather than 'is commendable'; for genuine approval use 值得肯定 or 无可挑剔
