1 | | Indonezia: Nanome baiko ny Minisitra ny hamindrana ny sarivongan'i Bouddha ao Indonezia |
2 | Indonesia: Ministry Orders Removal of Buddha Statue | Ny sarivongan-i Bouddha mampiady hevitra izay tsy maintsy ravana ka afindra ao Tanjungbalai. |
3 | Indonesia's commitment to promote religious tolerance has been questioned again after the Religious Affairs Ministry ordered a large Buddhist statue in the Tri Ratna Buddhist monastery in Tanjungbalai, North Sumatra, to be taken down after some ‘hardliners' in the area complained against its presence. | Sary: tranokala Sehatra fiadia-kevitra momba ny Boddhisma Lasa nampametra-panontaniana ny finiavan'i Indonezia hampiroborobo ny fifandeferana raha nanome baiko ny minisitry ny Raharaham-bahiny handrava ny sarivongana lehibe bodhista an'ny fiangonana bodhista « Tri Ratna » ao an-tanànan'i Tanjungbalai [@ teny anglisy] andrefan'i Sumatra, satria nitaraina tamin'ny fahatongavany ireo fondamentalista ao an-toerana. |
4 | A few months ago, leaders and members from other churches were attacked by Muslim ‘fanatics' which led many people to observe that religious minorities are being harassed in Indonesia. Indonesia is the most populated Muslim nation in the world. | Volana maromaro izay, ireo mpitarika finoana sy fikambanana antokom-pivavahana vitsy an'isa hafa no notafihan'‘ireo mpankasitraka ny miozolomana, izay nahitan'ny vahoaka maro fa ireo finoana vitsy an'isa no tena enjehina ao Indonezia. |
5 | The controversial Buddha statue that must be lowered in Tanjungbalai. | Indonezia no firenena be miozolomana indrindra maneran-tany. |
6 | Source: Website of Buddhism Discussion Forum The problem in North Sumatra started after a number of people calling themselves GIB / Gerakan Islam Bersatu (United Islamic Movement) began to consider the Buddha statue in Tri Ratna a threat to Islamic faith in the city. | Nanomboka ny olana taorian'ny fiheveran'ny olona maromaro izay ao amin'ny fikambanana antsoin'izy ireo hoe Gerakan Islam Bersatu (GIB - Hetsika Islamika Tafaray) fa fandrahonana ho an'ny finoana islamika ao an-tanana ny sarivongan'i Boddha ao Tri Ratna. |
7 | They argued that the statue could upstage the city's historical symbol ‘Balai di Ujung Tanduk' located in front of it. | Nanambara koa izy ireo fa mety hanaloka ny mariky ny tantaran'ny tanàna « Balai di Ujung Tanduk » ny sarivongana, izay mipetraka eo ampitany. |
8 | GIB's letter demanding the removal of the statue was published in a Buddhism discussion forum website. | Navoaka tamin'ny sehatra fiadin-kevitra momba ny boddhisma [amin'ny teny indonezia] ny taratasin'ny GIB mangataka ny famindrana ny sarivongana. |
9 | A discussion thread was also created to give support to the appeal of the Buddhist monks to the local government: | Nisy koa ny adihevitra lavabe natao mba hitondra fanohanana amin'ny antso nalefan'ireo moanina boddhista tamin'ny governemanta ao an-toerana : |
10 | Please provide pressure to the Mayor of Tanjung Balai, North Sumatera, to revoke the decree about lowering the Buddha statue in Tri Ratna monastery. | Miangavy anao izay mba handresy lahatra ny ben'ny tanànan'i Tanjung Balai, ao Sumatra avaratra, mba hanafoanana ny didim-panjakana mandrava ny sarivongan'i Boddha an'ny fiangonana Tri Ratna. |
11 | Various efforts have been made by the monastery and other sympathetic parties to prevent the statue from being removed but the Ministry, in the end, it chose to issue an order against the appeal of the monks. | Maro ireo fanapahan-kevitra noraisin'ny fiangonana sy ny mpino ao aminy mba hanakanana ny fandravana ny sarivongana kanefa nolavin'ny minisitera ny antso nataon'ireo moanina. |
12 | Blogger EKSPRESI HATI posted the chronology of advocacy efforts undertaken by Veryanto Sitohang, Direktur Eksekutif Aliansi Sumut Bersatu (Executive Director of The Alliance of North Sumatera United). | Namoaka ny fandehan'ny fanapaha-kevitra noraisin'i Veryanto Sitohang, Direktur Eksekutif Aliansi Sumut Bersatu (Tale Mpanatanteraka an'ny Fitambaran'ny andrefana Sumatra Miray) ilay bilaogera EKSPRESI HAT . |
13 | First, the Alliance complained to the Mayor, then they went to the local parliament, and then they proceeded to the Ministry of Religious Affairs, until finally they lobbied in the House of Representatives. | Voalohany indrindra, dia nitaraina tamin'ny ben'ny tanàna izy ireo; avy eo nankeny amin'ny solombavambahoaka ao an-toerana; manaraka izany, tao amin'ny minisiteran'ny Raharaham-pivavahana; ary farany nanery ireo solontenan'ny antenimieram-pirenena. |
14 | But the group failed to get a satisfactory answer. | Kanefa dia tsy nahazo valinteny mahafa-po. |
15 | That is why many were surprised to learn that the Ministry eventually decided that the statue should be taken down. | Izany no nahatonga azy ireo talanjona raha nahare fa nanapa-kevitra ny handrava ny sarivongana ny minisitera. |
16 | Here are some online reactions: THE INDONESIAN ANTI DISCRIMINATION MOVEMENT issued this statement: “The state has no right to regulate, moreover unload existing fixtures in worship places. | Indreto fihetseham-po vitsivitsy hita tao amin'ny aterineto : HETSIKA INDONEZIANA MANOHITRA NY FANAVAKAVAHANA [amin'ny teny indoneziana] nanao izao fanambarana manaraka izao : |
17 | Removing the Buddha statue in the monastery can be categorized as a form of religious violence committed by the state. | Ny Filohan'ny Hetsika, Wahyu Effendy, nanamafy fa « tsy manana zo hanery ary indrindra hamindra ny fitaovana efa-napetraka amin'ny toeram-pivavahana ny Fanjakana. |
18 | This is an infringement against the constitution and human rights”, as affirmed by Wahyu Effendy, General Chairman of Anti-Discrimination Struggle Movement. | Azo sokajiana ho toy ny karazana herisetra ataon'ny Fanjakana ny fandravana ny sarivonganan'i Boddha ao am-piangonana. Fanitsakitsahana ny lalampanorenana sy ny zon'olombelona izany». |
19 | Blogger JOEBIGJOE said: | Ilay bilaogera JOEBIGJOE [amin'ny teny indonezia] nanohy hoe : |
20 | Although Buddhism is considered as a minority religion, should the majority religion oppress the minority? | Na dia lazaina fa finoana vitsy an'isa aza ny boddhisma , tokony hanao tsindrihazolena ny mpanaraka fivavahana vitsy an'isa ve ireo mpanaraka fivavahana maro an'isa? |
21 | Is it just for Buddhist monks to get an approval from the religious majority? | Ny moanina boddhista ve no tokana tokony hahazo fankatoavana avy amin'ny finoana maro an'isa? |
22 | Where is mutual respect among religions in this country? | Aiza ny fifanajana amin'ny samy mpino eto amin'ity firenena ity ? |
23 | Colson, a blogger of Pelopor said: | Colson, bilaogera ao amin'ny Pelopor, nidrikina hoe : |
24 | Well, it is Aceh 2011 and not Afghanistan 2001, it is Shariah “Veranda of Mecca -style” not Taliban, the statue is just another Buddha and not a 1700 years old part of the world´s cultural heritage and the height is merely 6 meters and not 53. | Manatrika ny Aceh 2011 fa tsy Afghanistan 2001 isika izao, charia amin'ny modely« Lavarangan'i Lameka» izany fa tsy an'ireo talibans ; toy ny sarivongana rehetra ihany ny sarivongan'i Boddha fa tsy tsangambato taloha tamin'ny 1700 taona -lasa an'ireo lova ara-koltoraly an'izao tontolo izao, ary ny haavony dia eo amin'ny 6 metatra eo fotsiny fa tsy 53 metatra. |
25 | But in both cases the background of religious intolerance even aggressiveness, self-righteousness, narrow-mindedness and cultural barbarism, backed by the political establishment, are there. | Saingy amin'ireo zavatra roa ireo, hita fa ny zava-nisy fahiny toy ny tsy fifandeferana ara-pinoana na koa ny fihantsiana, ny fitiavan-tena, ny fahambanian-tsaina ary ny fiteny diso ara-koltoraly, dia notohanan'ny kilasy politika. |
26 | Blogger LAPAK INFO notes that religious pluralism is now dead in Indonesia: | Ilay bilaogera LAPAK INFO nanamarika fa efa maty ny fahamaroana ara-pinoana Indonezia: |
27 | This is the destruction of religious freedom, pluralism and the collapse of Unity in Diversity | Izao no fandravana ny fahalalahana ara-pinoana, sy ny fahasamihafana ary ny fahataperan'ny Firaisana anaty fahasamihafana. |
28 | ‘Unity in Diversity' is Indonesia's national motto. | « Firaisana anaty fahasamihafana» no teny filamatra nasionaly ao Indonezia. |
