1 | South Korea: Warning to Twitter Influencers Fails to Discourage Voters | Korea Atsimo : Tsy Nampihemotra Ireo Mpifidy Ny Fampitandremana Natao Tamin'ireo Mpanentana Ao Amin'ny Twitter |
2 | The South Korean capital, Seoul, elected a new mayor on October 26, 2011. | Ny renivohitr'i Korea Atsimo, Seola, ny 26 oktobra 2011 dia nifidy ny ben'ny tanànany vaovao. |
3 | The mayoral race was a fierce battle between an elitist female candidate from the ruling party and an outsider from a democratic party who was widely supported by activists and lot of Twitter users. | Ny fiadiana ny toerana maha ben'ny tanàna dia tena ady goavana be teo amin'ilay vehivavy mpilatsaka ho fidiana avy amin'ny antokon'ny fitondrana sy ilay tsy mbola fantatra loatra izay avy amin'ny antoko demokratika izay tena tohanan'ireo mafàna fo sy ireo mpampiasa Twitter. |
4 | Despite warnings from the authorities on showing favoritism to one candidate, Twitter users were quick to encourage voters, especially young people, to participate in the poll. | Na dia eo aza ny fampitandremana avy amin'ny manam-pahefana amin'ny fanehoana fiangàrana amin'ny kandidà iray, ireo mpampiasa Twitter anefa dia haingana dia haingana amin'ny fandrisihana ny mpifidy, indrindra ireo tanora, mba handray anjara amin'ny fandatsaham-bato. |
5 | As a result, this election recorded unprecedented high voting rates [ko] of 46 percent and Park Won-soon, the democratic candidate who is often despised by richer South Koreans, won the race. | Vokatr'izany, io fifidianana io dia nahitàna ny taham-pifidianana ambony dia ambony[ko] tsy mbola nisy toy izany, nahatratra 46 isan-jato ary i Park Won-soon, ilay kandidà demokratika izay matetika hàlan'ireo mpanankarena avy ao Korea atsimo, no nandresy. |

9 | The mayoral race in Seoul is a significant event in the South Korean political landscape and the candidates are often viewed as possible presidential candidates. | Ny fiadiana ny toerana maha ben'ny tanàna tao Seola dia fotoana iray nanan-tantara teo amin'ny sehatra ara-politika tao Korea Atsimo ary ireo kandidà dia matetika novinavinaina fa mety hilatsaka ho amin'ny fifidianana filoham-pirenena. |
10 | It is no wonder then that the campaign is extremely fiercely contested, involving harsh slandering comments and suspicions being cast on candidates' backgrounds. | Tsy mahagaga izany raha toa ka nahery vaika ilay fampielezan-kevitra, nahitàna fanambaràna manala baraka sy ny fiahiahiana ny maha izy azy ireo kandidà. |
11 | Among many elements affecting the campaign, Twitter has once again played a major role in the voting result. | Ankoatra ireo zavatra niantraika tamin'ilay fampielezan-kevitra, Twitter dia nandray anjara toerana lehibe indray teo amin'ny valim-pifidianana. |
12 | The South Korean authorities themselves experienced the power of Twitter earlier this year (see Global Voices' post ‘South Korea: Surprising Election, as Twitter Draws Youth to Polls‘. | Ny manam-pahefana Koreana Tatsimo dia nahita mihitsy ny herin'ny Twitter tamin'ny fiantombohan'ity taona ity (jereo ny ‘lahatsoratry ny Global Voices' Korea Atsimo : Fifidianana mahazendana, satria nitarika ny olona handatsa-bato ny Twitter'.) |
13 | At the start of this week, South Korea's National Election Commission warned influential Twitterers, including actors, comedians, writers, journalists and bloggers who have actively encouraged people to vote, against expressing political favoritism. | Tamin'ny fiandohan'ity herinandro ity, ny Kaomisiona nasionaly misahana ny fifidianana ao Korea Atsimo dia nampitandrina ireo mpanentana ao amin'ny Twitter, isan'izany ireo mpanao sarimihetsika, mpanao hatsikana, mpanoratra, mpanao gazety ary ireo bilaogera izay nandrisika be ny olona hifidy, izay manohitra ny fanehoana fiangarana ara-politika. |
14 | The Commission also reminded people of the country's strict guidelines on photo shooting; one is allowed to take photos of the voting station, but it is illegal to take photos of the voting sheet, or inside the voting booth. | Ilay sampan-draharaha koa dia nampahatsiahy ny mponina mikasika ny toromarika hentitra ao amin'ny firenena momba ny fakàna sary; afaka maka sary ny toeram-pifidianana ny olona iray, fa kosa voarara ny maka sary ilay taratasim-pifidianana, na ny ao anaty tranokely fandatsaham-bato. |
15 | The National Election Commission's decision to rein in Twitter users has immediately sparked controversy. | Niteraka resabe avy hatrany ilay fanapahan-kevitry ny Kaomisiona nasionaly misahana ny fifidianana hanjakazaka amin'ireo mpampiasa Twitter. |
16 | The Commission has argued [ko] that since most of the powerful users have vocally and openly endorsed Park, encouraging people to vote actually equates to pushing people to vote for Park. | Ilay Kaomisiona dia nanazava [ko] fa hatramin'izay nanohanan'ireo mpampiasa matanjaka am-bava sy am-pahibemaso an'i Park, tamin'ny fandrisihana ny olona hifidy ny olona sahaza io toerana io dia sahala amin'ny manosika ny olona hifidy an'i Park raha ny marina. |
17 | Campaign data showed [ko] that the higher the voting rates, the more likely Park was to win the race. | Ny fampielezan-kevitra anaty aterineto dia naneho [ko] fa arakaraky ny fiakaran'ny tahan'ny mpifidy, no anakaikezan'i Park ny fandresena. |
18 | Clampdown on social media influencers | Famoretana atao amin'ny mpanentana eo amin'ny filazam-baovao ara-tsosialy. |
19 | As if mocking the National Election Commission's decision, lots of politically vocal celebrities have continued to encourage people to go to the polls in various creative ways. | Toy ny hoe tsy manisy hasiny ilay fanapahan-kevitry ny kaomisiona nasionaly misahana ny fifidianana, maro amin'ireo olona malaza eo amin'ny sehatra politika no nanohy nandrisika hatrany ny olona handeha handatsa-bato tamin'ny fomba maro samy hafa. |
20 | Kim Yeo-jin, an actress-activist (@yohjini), tweeted a photo of herself making a hand gesture signalling her promise to vote. | Kim Yeo-jin, mpilalao sarimihetsika mafana fo (@yohjini), dia nandefa bitsika an-tsary iray mampiseho azy manao fihetsika amin'ny tànany maneho ny fampanantenany hifidy. |
21 | Lee Oi-soo (@oisoo), a star novelist and one of the nation's top five most influential Twitter users, tweeted [ko]: | Lee Oi-soo (@oisoo), mpanoratra tantara malaza ary tafiditra ao amin'ireo mpandefa bitsika dimy voalohany be mpanaraka indrindra ao an-toerana, dia nandefa bitsika hoe [ko] : |
22 | I've noticed numerous tweets saying they will cast votes. | Nanamarika aho fa maro ny bitsika milaza fa hanoratra anarana hifidy. |
23 | Since I have to stay inside the National Election Commission's regulatory boundaries, I may shut up and just broadcast what is happening [in the Twittersphere, instead of tweeting about his own opinion], but one thing for sure: I will not be bullied by them. | Nanomboka teo dia tsy maintsy nipetraka tao anatin'ilay kaomisiona nasionaly misahana ny fifidianana aho, mety hangina ny vavako ary handefa fotsiny izay mitranga [ao amin'ny tontolon'ny Twitter, raha toa ka tokony hilaza ny heviny manokana], kanefa izao no zavatra azo antoka : tsy ho viravirain'izy ireo aho. |
24 | Kim Jae-dong (@keumkangkyung), a famous comedian and entertainer, tweeted [ko]: | Kim Jae-dong (@keumkangkyung), mpanao hatsikana malaza ary mpampihomehy, dia nandefa bitsika hoe [ko]: |
25 | If the voting rate surpasses 50 percent, I will take off my top on Samgak mountain [as a sign of jubilation]. | Raha toa ka mihoatra ny 50 isan-jato ny taham-pifidianana, dia ho esoriko eny amin'ny tendrombohitry Samgak ny ambonin'akanjoko [ho mariky ny fankalazàna]. |
26 | A journalist with a progressive newspaper and another of the nation's top Twitter users, Huh Jae-hyun (@welovehani), criticized [ko] the Commission's inconsistency on setting restrictions for Twitterers: | Mpanao gazety iray ao aminà gazety mpandàla fiovàna (progresista) sy iray hafa avy amin'ireo mpandefa bitsika dimy voalohany be mpanaraka ao an-toerana, Huh Jae-hyun (@welovehani), dia nanakiana [ko] ny tsy fiheveran' ilay kaomisiona tamin'ny fametrahana teitery ho an'ireo mpampiasa Twitter : |
27 | Those National Election Commission people - they have not announced any guidelines on the vote confirmation photos in the last referendum. | Ireo olona ao amin'ny kaomisiona nasionaly misahana ny fifidianana ireo - dia tsy nanambara toromarika mikasika ny sary fanamafisana ny fidianana tamin'ny fitsapan-kevibahoaka farany teo. |
28 | But now, they came up with all these restrictions. | Kanefa ankehitriny, tonga izy miaraka amin'izao fandraràna rehetra izao. |
29 | Technically, it would be good for them if the voting rates go higher? | Raha ara-teknika, tsara ho azy ireo ve ny hiakaran'ny taham-pifidianana ? |
30 | Why do they act in this way? | Maninona izy ireo no manao tahaka izao? |
31 | One prolific Twitter user Doa (@doax) criticized [ko] the Commission's confusing standards in regulating tweets: | Mpampiasa Twitter mahafatra-po iray, Doa (@doax), no nanakiana[ko] ilay kaomisiona noho ny fandrindràna ny bitsika : |
32 | The National Election Commission is pure evil. | Tena devoly mihitsy ilay kaomisiona nasionaly misahana ny fifidianana . |
33 | Many people understood the rules as one is not allowed to send vote-encouraging tweets even today. | Maro ny olona mahatakatra ny lalàna satria ny olona tsy avela mandefa bitsika fandrisihana hifidy na dia amin'izao fotoana izao aza. [ |
34 | [Note: the limitations on vote-encouraging tweets take effect about two weeks before the campaign starts and commence once the voting starts] It is because they banned Park's supporters from sending vote-encouraging tweets. | Naoty : ny fameperana ny bitsika fandrisihana hifidy dia nivoaka hanan-kery roa volana nialoha ny fanombohan'ny fampielezan-kevitra ary nanomboka tamin'ny fanombohan'ny fifidianana] Izany dia satria noraràn-dry zareo ny mpanohana an'i Park tsy handefa bitsika handrisihana ny olona hifidy. |
35 | Hey, everyone, you can encourage each other to go vote. | O rey olona a, afaka ny hifandrisika ny olona tsirairay avy mba handeha hifidy. |
36 | It is also [weird that they have different rules] for celebrities. | Izany koa dia [hafahafa hoe manàna lalàna isan-karazany izy ireo ] ho an'ireo olo-malaza. |
37 | It is not okay for Ahn Chul-soo to encourage voters, while Kim Yuna can do it without any limitation. | Tsy mety amin'i Ahn Chul-soo ny mandrisika ny mpifidy, raha toa i Kim Yuna kosa afaka nanao izany tsy nisy teritery. |
38 | [Note: Ahn is a respected and successful businessman who founded an antivirus software company and is now a professor, whilst Kim is an Olympic figure skating champion] | [Naoty : Ahn dia mpandraharaha manan-kaja sy ambony izay nanorina ny orinasa iray mpanao “antivirus” ary profesora amin'izao fotoana izao , raha toa ka tompon-daka eran-tanin'ny fikorisàna amin'ny skate kosa i Kim]. |
39 | Myung Seung-Kwon (@DrMyung), a staff physician and senior scientist at the National Cancer Center in Seoul, tweeted [ko] with a sense of humor: | Myung Seung-Kwon (@DrMyung), fizisiana mpikambana sady mpahay siansa sangany ao amin'ny Foibem-Pirenena Miady amin'ny Homamiadana ao Seola, dia nandefa bitsika [ko] niaraka tamin'ny fampihomehezana : |
40 | It is a perfect chance to verify you are famous or not. | Vintana iray faran'izay tsara io hanamarinanao hoe malaza ianao sa tsia. |
41 | Just tweet some comments encouraging people to vote. | Mandefàsa fotsiny bitsika mandrisika ny olona hifidy. |
42 | If the Commission responds back to you [with some warnings] then it means that you are a really famous [influential] person. | Raha mamaly anao ilay kaomisiona [miaraka amin'ny teny fampitandremana] dia midika izany fa tena olona malaza [mpitarika] ianao. |
43 | Han Hak-soo (@Mbcpdhan), a producer with MBC, South Korea's network television, tweeted [ko] a vote confirmation photo with this provocative comment: “This is my vote confirmation photo! | Han Hak-soo (@Mbcpdhan), mpamokatra iray miaraka amin'ny MBC, tambajotranà fahitalavitra ao Korea Atsimo, dia nibitsika [ko] sary fanamafisana ny hifidianany niaraka tamin'izao fanamarihany mihantsy izao : “indro ny sary fanamafisana ny hifidianako! |

46 | Posted by Twitter User @Mbcpdhan, taken at one of the voting stations. | Nakarin'ilay mpampiasa Twitter @Mbcpdhan, nalaina tany amin'ny toeram-pifidianana iray. |

48 | After Lee Hyo-ri (@frog799), a South Korean female singer and a national sex symbol, tweeted [ko] her vote confirmation photo, one Twitter user, Storyboard (@storyboard7), accused [ko] her of becoming a lefty: | Tato aoriana i Lee Hyo-ri (@frog799), mpihira vehivavy avy ao Korea Atsimo ary olo-malaza iray manintona , dia nandefa bitsika [ko] ny amin'ny fanekeny hifidy, Storyboardher (@storyboard7), mpampiasa Twitter iray, dia nanendrikendrika [ko] azy ho lasa any amin'ny hery ankavia : |
49 | We don't ever watch or listen to TV shows starring those lefty entertainers. | Izahay aza tsy mijery sy mihaino fandaharana amin'ny fahitalavitra mampiseho ireny mpanao hatsikan'ny avy amin'ny hery ankavia ireny. |
50 | Miss Lee Hyo-ri has announced and identified herself as one of those lefties. | Ramatoakely Lee Hyo-ri dia nanambara sady nanamarina ny tenany mihitsy ho iray isan'ireny avy amin'ny ankavia ireny. |
51 | Lee Hyori (@frog799) responded [ko] “Hmm. What is a lefty?”, resonating many others' perplexed responses to this categorization. | Lee Hyori (@frog799) namaly hoe [ko] “Hmm. Inona no atao hoe avy amin'ny ankavia?”, nahatonga valinteny mampisalasala maro hafa mikasika io fanasokajiana io. |
52 | Chun Dong-hwan (@jdhkyh) tweeted [ko]: | Chun Dong-hwan (@jdhkyh) nandefa bitsika hoe [ko] : |
53 | Are we lefties because we go to the polls? | Moa ve isika avy amin'ny hery ankavia satria mandeha mandatsa-bato? |
54 | Unbelievable… Then you, who call Hyo-ri a lefty, you will not be going to vote tomorrow? | Tsy mampino…Ary ianao, izay miantso an'i Hyo-ri hoe avy amin'ny ankavia, tsy hifidy ianareo izany rahampitso ? |
55 | When someone votes, it means they are lefties and when they don't vote, they are right wing? | Rehefa mifidy ny olona, midika izany fa avy amin'ny ankavia ry zareo ary rehefa tsy mifidy izy ireo, dia elatra havanana? |
56 | You have a weird brain structure. | Manana atitodoha hafa firafitra ianareo. |
57 | Well, it can be convenient since your brain is so simple. | Koa, mety ho tsara kokoa raha tsotra ny sainareo. |
58 | Some people argued more reasonably. | Ny olona sasany naneho hevitra ampy fiheverana kokoa. |
59 | Haksoo Bae (@way_Tao) pointed out [ko] that influential Twitter users encouraged people to vote selectively: | Haksoo Bae (@way_Tao) nilaza [ko] fa ny mpampiasa Twitter be mpihaino toy izany no mandrisika ny olona hahay hisafidy ny olona ho fidiany: |
60 | Lee Hyo-ri, Park Jung-hoon, and Kim Jae-dong's vote encouragement cannot be free of political intentions. | Ny fandrisihan'i Lee Hyo-ri, Park Jung-hoon, ary Kim Jae-dong mba hifidy dia tsy afa-misaraka amin'ny resaka politika. |
61 | They did not encourage residents to vote on a free lunch referendum in August. | Tsy amporisihan'izy ireo hifidy amin'ny nahim-pony ny olona amin'ny fitsapan-kevibahoaka amin'ny volana Aogositra. |
62 | When the lower voting rates inflict damage to the ruling Grand National Party, they do not encourage people to vote. | Rehefa mamela takaitra ho an'ny Grand National Party ny fahambanian'ny tahan'ny mpifidy, tsy mba mandrisika ny olona hifidy izy ireo. |
63 | When higher voting rates work against the ruling party, then they encourage people to vote. | Rehefa miasa ho amin'ny fanoherana ny antokon'ny fitondrana ny fiakaran'ny tahan'ny mpifidy, eo izy ireo vao mandrisika ny olona hifidy. |
64 | Citizens have tried hard to set time aside to vote in their busy schedules. | Niezaka mafy hanao izay handehanana hifidy ny olona na dia tery dia tery aza ny fandaharam-potoanan'izy ireo. |
65 | Professor of Seoul National University, Cho Guk (@patriamea) introduced [ko] several tweets showing how serious people were. | Profesora ao amin'ny Anjerimanontolom-Panjakana ao Seoul i Cho Guk (@patriamea), nampiditra [ko] bitsika maro nanehoana fa tena matotra ny olona. |

67 | Professor Cho. | Profesora Cho. |
68 | I need to get to the airport by tomorrow 7:30 am- it is for my work. | Mila tonga eny amin'ny seranam-piara-manidina aho rahampitso amin'ny 7:30 maraina- ho an'ny asako izany. |
69 | But before I get there, I will first drop by the voting station 6 am in the morning. I could be the first one to cast vote on that voting location. | Fa alohan'ny hahatongavako eny, dia andeha eny amin'ny toeram-pifidianana aho aloha amin'ny 6 maraina. ary mety ho izaho no mpifidy handatsa-bato voalohany amin'io toeram-pifidianana io. |
70 | But no matter what, I will never give up on voting. | Fa tsy maninona izany, tsy hitsahatra ny hifidy mihitsy aho. |
71 | Meanwhile Oh Jin-ah (@dodani90) tweeted [ko]: | Niaraka tamin'izay, Oh Jin-ah (@dodani90) dia nandefa bitsika [ko] hoe: |
72 | One resident of Sang-Am Dong called me and said “I was so surprised. | Olona iray mipetraka ao Sang-Am Dong no niantso ahy ary nilaza hoe “Tena gaga be aho. |
73 | I have never seen young people lining up for vote in this busy commuting hour.” | Tsy mbola nahita tanora nilahatra hifidy aho hatramin'izay amin'ny ora maha-be atao toy izao.” |
