2 | A new wave of strikes are taking place in China. | Onjam-pitokonana vaovao iray indray no nitranga tao Sina. |
3 | This time it is not among rural migrant workers working in sweatshops, but among drivers and employees in the urban public transportation sector. | Tamin'ity indray mitoraka ity dia tsy teo anivon'ireo mpasa mpifindra monina avy any ambanivohitra miasa aminà toeram-piasana tsy ara-dalàna ireny, fa teny anivon'ireo mpamily sy mpiasa amin'ny sehatra fitaterana an-tanàn-dehibe. |
4 | It indicates how inflation and soaring costs are affecting city dwellers whose living standards keep depreciating. | Maneho izany hoe hatraiza ny fiantraikan'ny fitontongan'ny sandam-bola sy ny fidangan'ny vidim-piainana amin'ireo olona monina an-tanàn-dehibe izay miharatsy hatrany ny fiainana mahazatra azy. |

7 | Famous current affairs columnist and Weibo micro-blogger, Chen Jieren reported on August 2: | Chen Jieren, mpanao tsikeram-baovao malaza amin'izao fotoana sady mpitoraka bilaogy kiritika ao amin'ny Weibo, dia nitatitra ny 2 Aogositra: |

10 | In the afternoon, the government said they would introduce two measures: 1. Adjusting the taxi fees at the end of October; 2. The government will provide 1 yuan per ride subsidy for the drivers. | Ny tolakandro, nilaza ny governemanta fa handroso fepetra roa izy ireo: 1. Fanitsiana ny saran'ny fiarakaretsaka ny faran'ny Ôktôbra; 2. Ny governemanta dia hanome 1 yuan isaky ny fihodinana iray ho an'ny mpamily. |

14 | Human rights lawyer Zhang Kai explained the reason behind the taxi strike: | Nanazava ny antony tao ambadik'ilay fitokonan'ny fiarakaretsaka i Zhang Kai, mpisolovava momba ny zon'olombelona : |
15 | The Hangzhou taxi drivers' strike is predictable. | Azo nojerena mialoha ihany ny fitokonan'ireo mpamily fiarakaretsaka tao Hangzhou. |
16 | Earlier this year, when I had a trip in Hangzhou, I found it so difficult to stop a taxi. | Tany am-piandohan'ity taona ity, raha nihazo an'i Hangzhou aho, hitako fa tena sarotra ny nanakana fiarakaretsaka. |
17 | A driver told me that most of them are not locals and their monthly income is less than RMB 2,000 (USD $250). | Nilaza tamiko ny mpamily fa ny ankamaroan'izy ireo dia tsy avy eo an-toerana ary ny vola miditra amin'izy ireo isam-bolana dia latsaky ny 2.000 RMB ($250 USD). |
18 | So you can't afford sick leave or an accident. | Noho izany tsy afaka manefa ny saran'ny fitsaboana na loza iray ianao. |
19 | Property in Hanzhou costs more than RMB 10,000 per square meter, a life time of saving wouldn't buy you an apartment. | Maherin'ny 10.000 RMB isaky ny iray metatra tora-droa ny vidin-trano ao Hanzhou, na hanangona mandritra ny androm-piainana aza tsy hahafahanao mividy efitrano iray. |
20 | Also on Weibo, @hzhouse pointed out that the problem with exploitation of taxi license holding companies has not been solved: | Tao amin'ny Weibo ihany, @hzhouse nanasongadina fa ny olana momba ny fitrandrahana ny fahazon-dalana hitàna orinasa mampiasa fiarakaretsaka dia tsy mbola voavaha: |
21 | This morning, taxi drivers went on strike. | Io maraina io, nanao fitokonana ireo mpamily fiarakaretsaka. |
22 | They complained about traffic jams and low incomes. | Mitaraina noho ny fitohanana sy ny fidiram-bola kely izy ireo. |
23 | They earn about RMB 500 (USD $80) in one working day, but have to pay RMB 220 to the taxi license holding company and RMB 200 for the fuel. | Manodidina ny 500 RMB(USD $80)no azon'izy ireo amin'ny andro fiasana iray, nefa tsy maintsy mandoa 220 RMb amin'ny orinasa tompon'ny fahazoan-dàlana hanao fitaterana amin'ny fiarakaretsaka ary RMB 200 ho an'ny solika. |
24 | Their net income ends up at around RMB 70-80 (US$12). | Ny tena afa-karatsaka raisin'izy ireo izany dia eo ho eo amin'ny 70-80 RMB ( $12 USD). |
25 | Once you subtract rent and food, there is nothing left. | Raha anesoranao ny hofan'ny fiara sy sakafo, dia tsy misy tavela intsony. |
26 | Most of the media reports talked about expensive fuel prices, traffic jams and low subsidies. | Ny ankamaroan'ny tatitr'ireo haino aman-jery dia niresaka momba ny halafon'ny vidin-tsolika, ny fitohanan'ny fiara ary ireo famatsiam-bola kely. |
27 | What about the money given to the license holding companies? | Ahoana ny momba ny vola aloa amin'ny orinasa tompon'ny fahazoan-dàlana? |
28 | Why are ordinary people always the victims? | Nahoana no ireo olon-tsotra foana no ihandronan'ny rihitra? |

39 | On August 3, @zhaxuchu criticized Hangzhou city mayor's stability-comes-first principle in responding to the taxi strike: | Ny 3 Aogositra, @zhaxuchu dia nitsikera ny fepetra voalohany naroson'ny ben'ny tanàna ho fampitoniana ho valin'ny fitokonan'ireo fiarakaretsaka : |
40 | [There is no stability if people don't have food to eat] As a result of the rise in fuel prices, taxi drivers can't make enough money and have gone on strike. | [ Tsy hisy fitoniana raha tsy manan-kohanina ny olona] Vokatry ny fiakaran'ny vidin-tsolika, dia tsy afaka mampidi-bola ireo mpamily fiarakaretsaka hany ka niditra tamin'ny fitokonana. |
41 | The Hangzhou city mayor Zhao Jianwei said the government has to defend the rights of the majority of taxi drivers to run their business by cracking down on the radical minorities. | Nilaza ny ben'ny tanànan'i Hangzhou Zhao jianwei fa tokony hiaro ny zon'ny ankamaroan'ireo mpamily fiarakaretsaka ny governemanta mba hampandeha tsara ny fidiram-bolan'izy ireo amin'ny fanerena ireo vitsy an'isa hatrany ifotony. |
42 | They would crush them one by one in order to stabilize society - my mayor, the premise of stability is to have enough income for food. | Tokony hanamontsana azy ireo tsirairay ry zareo o ho fampitoniana ny fiarahamonina-ry ben'ny tanànako, ny faritry ny fitoniana dia ny fanànana fidiram-bola ampy ho an'ny sakafo. |

44 | Railway workers strike in Changsha | Ny fitokonan'ny mpiasan'ny làlamby ao Changsha. |
45 | Employees of the railway company also held a strike at the Changsha railway station in Hunan province in south-central China on August 2, 2011. | Nanao fitokonana teo amin'ny Garan'i Changsha ao amin'ny faritanin'i Hunan, atsimo afovoan'i Sina koa ireo mpiasan'ny orinasan-dàlamby ny 2 Aogositra 2011. |
46 | The incident is highly sensitive, because the Chinese Communist Party marks a series of railway workers' strikes in 1922 as an early success of the political movement. | Tena saropady tokoa ity hetsika ity, satria marihan'ny Antoko Kaomionista Sinoa ho toy ny fahombiazana mialoha ho an'ny hetsika ara-politia ireo fitokonana nisesisesy nataon'ny mpiasan'ny làlamby tamin'ny taona 1992. |
47 | A Changsha-based lawyer, Gan Yuanchun shared the news with a photo: | Mpisolovava iray monina ao Changshan, Gan Yuan Chunu dia nizara ny vaovao miaraka aminà sary iray : |
48 | Sina weibo image from Gan Yuanchun | Sarin'ny Sina weibo avy amin'i Gan Yuanchun |
49 | The lawyer quoted a BBS (online bulletin board) report that there were around 300 railway workers on strike at Changsha railway station. | Naitanisa ny tatitry ny BBS (vaovao anaty aterineto) ilay mpisolovava hoe nanodidina ny 300 ireo mpiasan'ny làlamby nanao fitokonana tao amin'ny garan'i Changshan. |
50 | It is unclear what has triggered the strike. | Tsy nazava tsara ny niteraka ny fitokonana. |
51 | A local newspaper, ‘Daily Economic News' followed the story and said that the strike was triggered by a minor labour dispute over the replacement of several passenger carriage directors at the Zhuzhou Service Division from Guangzhou Railway Corporation. | Gazety iray ao an-toerana,‘DailyEconomic News' no nanaraka ny tantara ary nilaza fa ny fitokonana dia niantomboka tamin'ny fifamalian'ny mpiasa madinika momba ny fanovàna ny maro tamin'ireo talen'ny zotra fitaterana mpandeha tao amin'ny Sampan-draharaha tao Zhuzhao nataon'ny Guangzhou Railway Corporation. |
52 | Nevertheless, netizens still noticed the political implications of railway workers in the history of the People's Republic of China. | Na dia izany aza anefa dia mbola marihan'ireo mpampiasa aterineto ny firotsahan'ireo mpiasan'ny fitaterana an-dalamby amin'ny pôlitika teo amin'ny tantaran'ny Repôblika Entim-bahoakan'i Sina. |
53 | In Gan Yuanchun's discussion thread: | Ao anatinà resaka mifampitohy an'i Gan Yuanchun : |
54 | @hampan Have the railway workers once again become frontier soldiers? | @hampan Ho miaramilan-tsisintany indray mandeha indray va re ireo mpiasan'ny lalamby? |
55 | (August 3, 21:17) | ( 3 Aogositra 9:17 alina). |
56 | @1584233735 My grandpa participated in the Guangzhou railway workers' strike. | @154233735 Nandray anjara tamin'ilay fitokonan'ny mpiasan'ny làlamby ny dadabeko. |
57 | This is like a playback of history… (August 3 21:11) | Toy ny fiverenan'ny tantara ihany izy ity…(3 Aogositra 9:11 alina)…. |
58 | @linhaobest888 reply to @Nethuhz: The workers are taking action, students should be next. | @linhhao888 mamaly an'i @Nethuhz: Nihetsika ny mpiasa, ka tokony anjaran'ny mpianatra indray ny manaraka. |
