1Philippines: Bloggers React To Poll Chief's ResignationPhilippines: Hevitra taorian'ny fialan'ny fialan'ny filohan'ny Vaomieran'ny fifidianana
2The corruption scandal that Mong Palatino reported as having reached the Philippine presidential palace is unfolding fast.Nivelatra be tao anatin'ny fotoana fohy ny raharaha maizina nentin'i Mong Palatino nananika ny lapan'ny filoha
3Benjamin Abalos, the powerful chair of the Commission on Elections (Comelec) who was implicated in the National Broadband Network (NBN), resigned from his post on Monday.Niala tsy satry tamin'ny andraikitra mahafilohan'ny Vaomieran'ny fifidianana azy manko i Benjamin Abalos tamin'ny alatsinainy rehefa voarohirohy nanao zavatra tsy mazava tamin'ny National Broadband Network (NBN) [Fanapariahana ny onjan-tseraseram-pirenena].
4Just last week at the Senate, former socio-economic planning secretary and now Commission on Higher Education chairman Romulo Neri accused Abalos of trying to bribe him into favoring Chinese firm ZTE in the construction of a US$329-million NBN for the Philippines.Tao amin'ny Lapan'ny antenimieran-doholona tamin'ny herinandro lasa teo no nampangain'ny filohan'ny vaomieran'ny fampianarana ambony Atoa Romulo Neri minisitry ny fandrindrana ekonomika sy sosialy teo aloha ho nikasa hanome tsolotra azy Atoa Abalos mba hahazoan'ny orinasa shinoa ZTE ny fitantanana ny $329.000.000 amerikana entina hananganana ny NBN ho an'ny Filipina.
5Neri told the senators that he heard Abalos tell him during a golf game, amid chats about the NBN: ” Sec, may 200 ka dito” (Secretary, you have 200 here).Nolazain'i Neri tamin'ny loholona fa tanelanelan'ny resaka teo ampilalaovana golf no nisy tsipalotra momba ny NBN: ” Sec, may 200 ka dito” (Misy 200 ho anao Atoa Minisitra ao).
6Neri told senators that Abalos clearly meant 200 million pesos.Nambaran'Atoa Neri mazava tamin'ny loholona fa 200.000.000 pesos no dikan'izany.
7Comelec spokesman and blogger James Jimenez posts Abalos's resignation statement and capped it with a question/remark asked of him minutes after his now-former boss made the announcement on national television: Can you say ‘surprise move?'Ny mpiblaogy sy mpitondra tenin'ny vaomieran'ny fifidianana James Jimenez no nanoratra ny fametrahan'Atoa Abalos fialana ka nisintona ny saina tamin'ny fanonaniana sady fanamarihana nataon'ny lehibeny taloha minitra vitsy taorian'ny filazana ampahibemaso hita tamin'ny fahitalavi-pirenena:
8The immediate reactions of journalists, at least those I saw reporting on ANC, was that of shock. Manolo said it was a welcome development that should be accepted by those crying for Abalos's head eversince:Famelabelarana tokony eken'ireo nitady hanaisotra an'i Abalos hatry ny ela : Ho an'ireo izay nitaky ny fialany efa an-taonany izao, aza manao tsindrio fa lavo azy.
9For those calling for his resignation for ages now, don't hit a man when he's down.
10He resigned to save his ass, but he still resigned.Niala izy mba tsy ho tratry ny fahafaham-baraka, saingy efa niala izy.
11Give him credit for that.Derao tamin'ny fanapahan-keviny izy.
12Now, on to the harder part, hauling him off to court.Fa ny dingana sarotra kokoa dia ny hitondra azy any amin'ny fitsarana.
13Credit is due for resigning but that's as far as credit goes.Ny fiderana ny nataony dia noho ny fialany ary izay ihany no iderana azy.
14In a country where too few resign despite the public clamor to do so, he did it; but he also did it, to avoid what could have been an historic impeachment.Amin'ny firenena izay vitsy loatra ny mahasahy mametra-pialana na dia maro aza ireo takian'ny feom-bahoaka, dia nahasahy izy ; aleony miala toy izay azon'ny fanesorana mety hanan-tantara.
15So a historic trial necessarily comes next.Ary manaraka ihany koa ny fitsarana manan-tantara.
16Perhaps one of the many who wanted to Abalos to resign is My name is Daaaviiiiid…who shares that:Angamba anisan'ireo nitaky ny fialan'Atoa Abalos i My name is Daaaviiiiid…izay nizara fa:
17Personally it's been something I've been hoping he'd do for a long time.Izay no efa nandrasako taminy hatry ny ny ela.
18If you check him out online as much as you could, it won't be surprising if you'll find a lot of…questionable acts he appears to have committed.Raha tianao hojerena araka ny fahafahanao ao amin'ny siniben-tserasera ny vitany dia tsy ho gaga intsony ianao raha mahita ireo fihetsika…mampieritreritra vitany.
19While we're taking on corruption, philiblogs.com asks a relevant question:Raha raisina ny resaka kolikoly, Nisy fanontaniana lehibe natrangan'i Philiblogs.com :
20Abalos also claimed he would continue the crusade to clear his name and reputation.Niantsoantso i Abalos fa hanohy ny kroazady (tafika masina) hanadiovana ny anarany sy ny lazany.
21How noble!Teni-pahamendrehana izany tompoko !
22But who's going to clear the name and reputation of the Philippines that by now has firmed up its reputation as a corrupt nation after this scandal?Fa iza kosa no hanadio ny anarana sy ny lazan'i Filipina mihosina ao amin'ny fahafaham-barakan'ny firenena anjakan'ny kolikoly noho ity raharaha maizina ity ?
23Another blogger, Ideological Soup, did not mince words in a really scathing reaction to Abalos's resignation statement:Tsy nitsitsy teny koa i Ideological Soup tao amin'ny fiteny tena mandratra taorian'ny fialan'Atoa Abalos:
24I was extremely bowled over by Abalos's resignation statement, more so when he mentioned the words “to clear my name and reputation.”Kivy tanteraka aho tamin'ny fomba nametrahan'i Abalos fialana, indrindra moa rehefa nanasongadina ny teny hoe « hanadio ny anarako sy ny lazako » izy.
25His crusade to clear his already tainted name by his own wrongdoings is something beyond imagination.Efa matroky ny heloka mihoatra lavitra noho izay azo eritreretina ny kroazady kasainy hanadiovana ny anarany.
26History will not be so kind to those who try to distort it.Ny tantra koa dia mbola hitsara, tsy hanaiky izay fanovana tian-katao.
27And reputation, this is something that you can't buy, something that you can't pay for, even if you bribe somebody for 200 million or 200 billion to grant you good reputation.Ary zavatra tsy voavidy na oviana na oviana ny laza na dia hanome tsolotra 200.000.000 na 200.000.000.000 hahatsara laza anao aza ianao.
28Even Comelec employees reportedly went wild with glee over their chief's resignation.Na dia ny mpiasan'ny vaomieran'ny fifidianana lazaina fa mitsinjatsinjaky ny hafaliana rehefa nandre ny fialan'ny lehibeny.
29Oragon is skeptical.Manahy kosa i Oragon.
30Apart from listing three implications of Abalos's action, Oragon says:Ankoatra ny heloka telo loha mahatafiditra dia niteny i Oragon :
31[T]he resignation may be viewed as a combination of legal strategy and political maneuver.Mety ho fiarahan'ny paik'ady anaty lalàna sy tetipanorona politika ny fametraham-pialana.
32The first would seek to provide a breathing space for Abalos, the latter would put a breathing space for political leaders implicated in the scandal.Ny paika dia ny itadiavana sehatra ahafahan'i Abalos maka aina, ny tetika kobonina dia ny hanoroana lalana ny mpitarika politika rehetra mety ho tratran'ny raharaha maizina hoe mankary ny sehatra ahafahana maka aina.
33Abalos's resignation effectively stopped the efforts in the House of Representatives to impeach Abalos or, in other words, hold him politically liable, for his role in the NBN-ZTE scam.Tapi-dala-kaleha tokoa manko ny antenimieram-pirenena saiky hanongana an'i Abalos raha vao nametra-pialana ity farany, izany hoe, (saika) hitazona azy ho manana andraikitra politika tamin'izay nataon'i Abalos hahatontosa ny fifanarahana NBN sy ny ZTE.
34christabel is cynical.christabel kosa very finoana.
35Hear her speak on the event as sandwiched between thoughts on college basketball and showbiz :Henoy ny fitenenany tahaka ny voatery anelanelan'ny fisainana mpianatra tia basket sy fampisehoan-kira
36Like some Filipinos, I don't know what to believe anymore.Tahaka ny Filipiana maro ihany aho, tsy fantatro intsony izay azo inoana.
37I'm still waiting for further events and I just pray one thing, for the truth to be set out and for corruption to end but just some time ago, the Philippines was named as one of the most corrupt countries in the world today.Mbola miandry ny tohin'ny raharaha aho ary mivavaka zavatra iray loha : mba hivoaka ny marina ary mba hitsahatra ny kolikoly, saingy efa tokony ho fotoana vitsy lasa izay, voatondro ho firenena anjakan'ny tsolotra indrindra manera-tany i Filipina.
38It's very disappointing.Mahaketraka !
39The team blog of the Philippine Center for Investigative Journalism thus smells a rat and dubbed Abalos's act as no different from Richard Nixon's.Ny ekipan'ny Philippine Center for Investigative Journalism kosa maheno fofom-boalavo ary miahiahy fa tsy mahita fahasamihafana amin'izay nataon'i Richard Nixon's amin'ity raharaha ity.
40In Cradle of the Brave, journalist Reeza Singzon shares her conversation with a jurist:Cradle of the Brave,[Rotsirotsin'ny sahisahy] no itateran'ny mpanao gazety Reeza Singzon ny tafatafa tamina mpahay lalàna:
41In a conversation this afternoon with the mild-mannered and soft-spoken retired Court of Appeals Justice Santiago Javier Ranada, I brought up the subject and said “Well, now that he is no longer an impeachable official, he just untimely opened himself up to criminal prosecution.”NItafatafa tamin'ilay mpana-toetra bonaika sy malefa-piteny tao amin'ny Fitsarana ambony efa misotro ronono aho, Ny mpitsara Santiago Javier Ranada, natsidiko taminy ny raharaha ary hoy aho hoe : « Ankehitriny moa efa tsy ao anatin'ny olona fanongana intsony izy, izy ihany izany no nanokatra ny raharaha amin'ny heloka bevava iampangana azy ».
42Justice Ranada said, “That may be true, but remember that resignation does not mean admission of guilt.”Namaly ny mpitsara Ranada : « Mety ho marina izany, saingy tadidio fa ny fialana tsy midika ho fiaiken-keloka. »
43Reeza also issues this warning:Niady hevitra tamin'io fitadidy (fampitandremana) i Reeza :
44Abalos' persecutors still have a long way to go if they want his head on a platter.Mbola lavitra ny lalana alehan'ny mpanenjika an'i Abalos raha tiany ny hahazo ny lohany eo an-dovia.
45Abalos may yet turn out to be greatest strategist in all this, knowing full well that by rendering impeachment moot, any alleged wrongdoing on his part will have to be proved the hard way- beyond reasonable doubt in a criminal case before a fair and impartial court of justice- instead of the highly political and biased impeachment process.I Abalos aza no tena fetsy ao anatin'ity raharaha ity, fantany tsara fa raha tankina ny lalam-panonganana dia ho sarotra mandrakariva ny hanaporofo ny fisian'ny fandikan-dalàna heverina ho nataony. -Ankoatra ny ahiahy hoe hoe hitsara tsy miangatra amim-pahamarinana tokoa ny Fitsarana - [Miaro azy] ny Politika avo lenta sy ny lesoky lalam-panonganana.
46Such cynical view is perhaps shared by many, considering the government's track record.Mety hananan'ny maro izay fomba fijery be ahiahy izay, raha jerena ny mety ho mpikambana ao amin'ny fitondrana voarohirohy amin'ity raharaha ity.
47As I have previously pointed out, the Ombudsman may again fail the public's expectation that criminal charges be pressed against Abalos immediately after he relinquishes his post, if we base it on what the agency has done regarding an earlier scandal that rocked the Commission on Elections which Abalos headed.Tahaka izay efa nolazaiko mialoha, mety handiso fanantenana indray ny mpanelanelana (mediatora) raha jerena izay efa niampangana ny Vaomieran'ny fifidianana izay notarihin'i Abalos. Ho an'ny AWBHoldings, Abalos no voatendry ho lohan'ny mpanangana ny rindrin'ny Henatra amin'ity taona ity.
48For AWBHoldings, Abalos has become a lead nominee for his Wall of Shame this year.Antenaina hanohy ny fanadihadiana ny antenimieran-doholona mandra-pahazoana ny marina rehetra.
49The Senate is expected to continue its inquiries, until the whole truth is laid bare.Mety hahazo teny mahery amin'ny antenimiera ny olo-manan-kaja voalhany Mike Arroyo, ary raha tsy miraharaha ny teny izy dia mety hosamborina ary voatery hiatrika ny fanadihadian'ny loholona. .
50First Gentleman Mike Arroyo may be summoned by the chamber and, if he ignores the summons, may be arrested and forced to sit before the senators.Raha anarivoarivony ny mpivoivoy amin'ny aterineto, vitsy amin'ireo monja no mahafantatra ny volavolam-panorenana NBN sy ny tanjona tratrariny.
51While there are now millions of Filipino netizens, only this minority may be able to understand what the NBN project is or what it hopes to achieve.Mieritreritra aho fa tena volavola tsara tokoa ny mampifandray ny ny sampan-draharaham-panjakana rehetra, na an'ny faritra io na misahana ny firenena manontolo, ary mahatratra ny sekoly sy ny fandraharahana rehetra.
52Methinks it is a really good project to link together all government agencies, national or local, as well as schools and businesses.Efa nisy ny volavola notanterahina tahaka ity tany amin'ny firenen-kafa toa an'i Australia ary nahatalanjona tokoa ny zavabitany.
53Similar projects have done wonders in other countries like Australia. The problem is that the government which aims to do it is so unpopular, graft-ridden and widely perceived to be inefficient and incompetent - so much so that the NBN project is now cursed as if by authorities' reverse Midas touch.Ny olana dia ny kendren'ny governemanta atao azy ho lasa tsy tian'ny olona, manao petatoko [dika bontolo: mitaingina amin'ny zavatra efa mitaingina (grefy)] ary malaza ho tsy mahavita zavatra sy tsy mahay, hany ka ny vinavinam-pananganana ny ny NBN indray no voaompa fa izay kasihan'i Midas dia mivadika (ambony ambany) avokoa.

56Ditto for physicist Dr. Giovanni Tapang who reminds us in his blog Penguin tales:Dia hoy ny fizisiana Dr. Giovanni Tapang izay mampahatsiahy antsika ao amin'ny blaoginy Penguin tales:
57Improving telecommunication services by using modern technologies, without corruption and foreign interests, will always be a welcome development for the people.Fampivoarana ny fifandraisandavitra amin'ny alalan'ny fampiasana haitao maoderina, tsy misy kolikoly sy tombotsoa vahiny, no iriana hampandrosoana ny vahoaka. Ekeko izany.
58I agree.Tonyo cruz
