26Granted, I must admit - even with the disastrous traffic, the incessant road blocks, and the influx of tourists, the spirit of the city is contagious!Tsy maintsy miaiky aho - fa na dia ratsy aza ny fifamoivoizana, tapaka hatrany ny lalana, maro dia maro ny mpizahatany, dia mamindra tokoa ny fanahin'ny tanàna!
27The energy is palpable, as streets are abuzz; and people appear happier, in good spirits, and in festive moods.Heno mihitsy ny angôvo, feno olona ny arabe; ary hita ho falifaly kokoa ny olona, ary hita ho ao anatin'ny fety tokoa ny olona.

32So proud of u <3 #hanoi1000 Steve Jackson observes that many twitter posts reflect cynicism and disappointment of several netizens about how the events were organized.Hitan'i Steve Jackson fa maro tamin'ny eritreritra nivoaka tamin'ny twitter no ahitana taratra ny fahadisoam-panantenan'ireo mpiserasera tamin'ny fomba nanatontosana ny lanonana.
33The style of the celebrations may be questionable but this is a truly remarkable capital.Mety mampanontany tena ny fomba nanatontosana ny fankalazana saingy hita fa renivohitra miavaka tokoa izy.
34However, I doubt I'm the only one who will be happy to see the end of #hanoi1000.Saingy, misalasala aho raha izaho irery no ho faly rehefa mifarana ny #hanoi1000.
35I've really felt like I've missed the place over the last ten days.Tena tsapako ho malahelo ny toerana aho nandritra ny folo andro.

37Philip Arthur Moore points to the images indicating the 1,000th birthday party of HanoiNavoitran'i Philip Arthur Moore ny sary manavaka ny lanonan'ny tsingerintaona faha-1,000 an'i Hanoi
38Helicopters, people on rooftops, empty alleyways; sounds about right for Hanoi's 1000th birthday party.Angidimby, olona eny an-tampontrano, sakeli-dalana tsy misy olona; izay no hitako amin'ny faha-arivo taonan'i Hanoi.
39I doubt I will go anywhere other than my balcony today.Misalasala ny handeha an-toeran-kafa ankoatra ny eto andavaranako aho anio.
40Crowds have a history of driving me mad, and if the last nine days have been any indication, Hanoi's Old Quarter will be absolute bedlam for the next 18 hoursTsy mahazaka ny any anaty vahoaka loatra aho, ka raha tarafina tamin'ny sivy andro lasa dia hikorontana tanteraka ny faritra taloha an'i Hanoi
41Referring to the deadly fireworks explosion a few days before the main event and the flooding in central Vietnam, Andy Engelson explains further why he was not too much enthusiastic with the celebrationsTsy dia mazoto loatra i Andy Engelson hifety araka ny fanazavany rehefa mitodika tamin'ilay fipoahana afomanga nahafatesana olona andro vitsy mialoha ny fety sy ny tondra-drano tany Vietnam afovoany ry zareo
42I tried to muster up the enthusiasm to go take some photos or attended events.Niezaka aho ny hamory ny fifaliako haka sary sy hanatrika fety.
43But I couldn't do it.Saingy tsy vatrako ilay izy.
44The much-anticipated gala, in my opinion, was a huge bust. A fiasco.Ny hira tena nandrandraina indrindra moa dia nahakivy tanteraka. fiasco.
45I'm happy it's over.Faly aho fa vita iny.
46Can we all get back on with our lives, now?Afaka miverina amin'ny fiainanay amin'izay ve izahay rehetra, ankehitriny?
47Maybe it's the completely boring series of events scheduled.Angamba mampatory avokoa ny fandaharam-potoana voalahatra rehetra.
48I'm sorry, I'm just not into entertainment in the form of revolutionary film festivals, blaring patriotic music, and traffic jams.Azafady, tsy mahafa-po ahy ny fialam-boly amina endrika fetin'ny sarimihetsika revolisionera, mozikam-pitiavan-tanindrazana mankarenin-tsofina ary ny fitohanam-pifamoivoizana.
49Did I mention traffic jams? I was happy miss the one yesterday the one that kept the president of Vietnam sitting in his motorcade for five hours.Niteny fitohanam-pifamoivoizana moa aho? faly aho fa tsy tratrany omaly izay nikatsoan'ny filohan'i Vietnam mipetraka eo amin'ny cortege nandritra ny dimy ora.
50Hope he had a minibarManantena aho fa nanana minibar izy
51On the bright side criticizes the event plannersMitsikera ny drafitry ny mpikarakara i On the bright side
52I've already expressed my disappointment leading into the celebration, the lack or organization, the lack of inclusion of the foreign community, both locally and internationally.Efa niteny ny fahadisoam-panantenako tamin'ny fitarihana ity fety ity aho, ny tsy fahampian'ny fandaminana, ny tsy nisian'ny vondrona vahiny, na eto an-toerana izany na iraisam-pirenena.
53And in this past week of celebrations, I have grown even more so.Ary nandritra ny herinandron'ny fankalazana moa dia mbola nitombo ihany izany.
54Some would say that the expats are being too negative and looking for bad things to say.Mety hiteny ny sasany fa tsy mijery ny lafiratsin-javatra loatra ny mpila ravinahitra ary tsy mitady afa-tsy ny zavatra ratsy holazaina.
55But I'll tell ya…when a city turns 1000 years old, and you don't tell anybody how you are planning to celebrate or what festivities they can attend, when you don't even tell them what days they may not be able to get to their place of work due to road closures or close so many streets that the already insane traffic becomes monstrous, well then…I don't have a hell of a lot of sympathy.Saingy lazaiko anao…raha velona nandritra ny 1000 taona ny tanàna iray, ary tsy lazainao izay kasainao hotanterahina amin'ny fety izay mety atrehiny, raha tsy lazainao akory na dia ny andro izay mety tsy ahafahany mamonjy ny asany noho ny fanakatonana lalana na maro loatra ny arabe no mikatso tanteraka ny lalana, dia lazaiko … fa tsy mankasitraka izany loatra aho.
56It's poor event planning and it's laughable.Mampalahelo ilay drafi-pikarakarana ka azo ihomehezana.
57Viet Tan used the occasion to dramatize their concern about the political and human rights situation in the countryViet Tan manararaotra ny fotoana hikororohana ny ahiahiny momba ny toe-draharaha politika sy ny zon'olombelona ao amin'ny fireneny
58Participants, from within Vietnam and overseas, passed out fliers, t-shirts and hats affirming Vietnamese sovereignty over the Paracel and Spratly Islands.Nizara trakitra, t-shirts ary satroka manambara ny fiandrianan'i Vietnam amin'ny nosy Paracel sy Spratly ny mpandray anjara avy eo an-toerana sy ampitan-dranomasina.
59This civic action to raise public awareness is the latest effort by Viet Tan to promote Vietnamese national interests and advocate for social justice and democratic change through open and peaceful political activities.Avy amin'i ezak'i Viet Tan hampahafantarana bebe kokoa ny tombontsoam-pirenena sy fitadiavana ny rariny ara-tsosialy sy fiovana demokratika amin'ny alalan'ny hetsika am-pilaminana io hetsika sivika io.
60Writing on Facebook, Doan Minh Ngoc muses about the need to protect Hanoi's futureAo amin'ny Facebook no amariparitan'i Doan Minh Ngoc ny ilana ny fiarovana ny hoavin'i Hanoi
61Well, if you love Hanoi from the bottom of your heart; because your childhood has been inextricably linked to Hanoi, then the post-celebration future of Hanoi matters more than all this short-lived hype and enthusiasm.Eny ary, raha tianao hatrany amin'ny fonao lalina any i Hanoi; satria mifamatotra tanteraka amin'i Hanoi ny fahazazanao, dia ho zava-dehibe kokoa noho izao fifaliana sy fihetsiketsehana miserana izao ny hoavin'i Hanoi.
62You'll feel the urge to do actual things for Hanoi, not just lazing around the streets or wearing t-shirts.Hisy hetaheta izany ao anatinao hanao zavatra ho an'i Hanoi, fa tsy vitan'ny mirenireny eny amin'ny arabe na miakanjo t-shirt.
63Or it's just me trying to think of my situation positively.Sa izaho miezaka ny mieritreritra hijery ny lafitsaram-piainako ihany izany.
64Whatever.Na izany aza.
