1 | Tajikistan: Singer Praising Putin Draws Anger | Tajikistan: Mpihira Mankalaza An'i Poutine Mahatonga Hatezerana |
2 | Tajik singer Tolibjon Kurbonkhonov is an Internet star. | Kintana ety anaty aterineto ilay Tajik mpihira, Tolibjon Kurbonkhonov. |
3 | Hundreds of thousands of people have watched his three videos (see below) uploaded this year on YouTube, and he is now a frequent guest on television talk shows in Russia. | An'aliny ireo olona efa nijery ireo lahatsariny telo nakarina ao amin'ny YouTube tamin'ity taona ity (jereo ery ambany), ary dia matetika izy izao no vahiny aminà fandaharana anaty fahitalavitra any Rosia. |
4 | Yet, despite his quick rise to prominence, the singer does not have many fans in Tajikistan. | Kanefa, na teo aza izany lazabe tampoka izany, tsy dia manana mpankafy betsaka manao ahoana ilay mpihira any Tajikistan. |
5 | Most of people who have heard of Kurbonkhonov in his home country either think he is a “jester” or despise him. | Ny ankabeazan'ireo olona nandre ny momba an'i Kurbonkhonov tany an-tanindrazany dia samy mihevitra azy ho “jester” mpanao hatsikana/saribakoly avokoa, na mitsara azy ho tsy alehany. |
6 | The reason for this are the young star's songs which extol the virtues of an unlikely hero, Russian president Vladimir Putin. | Ny anton'izany rehetra izany dia noho ny hiran'ity mpanakanto tanora ity manindrahindra ny zava-bitan'ilay toa tsy mahery fo akory, ny filoha Rosiana Vladimir Poutine. |
7 | Three hits | Hira malaza telo |
8 | Global Voices reported about Kurbonkhonov's first video, “V.V.P.” [ru] (Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, the Russian leader's full name), which was uploaded on YouTube in February 2012 and quickly went viral. | Global Voices dia nitatitra mikasika ny lahatsary voalohan'i Kurbonkhonov, “V.V.P.” [ru] (Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, anarana fenon'ny filoha Rosiana), izay nakariny tao amin'ny YouTube tamin'ny Febriary 2012 ary vetivety dia niparitaka be. |
9 | Appearing on the Internet roughly one month before Russia's presidential election and praising Putin, the key contender for the post, as “God's messenger” and “savior of the country,” the song was bound to become a hit. | Nivoaka tao amin'ny Aterineto iray volana teo eho eo nialoha ny fifidianana ho filoham-pirenena tao Rosia ary nanindrahindra an'i Putin, ilay kandidà fototra amin'izany toerana izany, ho toy ny “mpitondra tenin'Andriamanitra” sy “mpanavotra ny firenena,” ary dia lasa hiza malaza avy hatrany ilay hira. |
10 | Interestingly, the video caused a lot of speculation in Russia about whether it was actually complimenting Putin or ridiculing him. | Mahavariana, ilay lahatsary dia niteraka adihevitra marobe tao Rosia mikasika ny hoe tena fideràna an'i Poutine tokoa sa fanesoana azy izy io ? |
11 | After Putin won the election, Kurbonkhonov recorded another music video, “Thank You, God, for Vladimir” [ru]. | Taorian'ny nandresen'i Poutine tamin'ny fifidianana, namokatra lahatsarin-kira iray hafa i Kurbonkhonov, “Thank You, God, for Vladimir” “Andriamanitra o, misaotra anao nanome an'i Poutine”[ru]. |
12 | The song claimed that the newly re-elected Russian president - the singer's “hero” and “idol” - had been “chosen by heaven”. | Ilay hira dia nilaza hoe ilay filoha Rosiana vaovao vao avy voafidy indray - “mahery fo” sy “filamatra” ho an'ilay mpihira - dia “olom-boafidin'ny lanitra” |
13 | On a popular talk show on Russia's NTV channel, Kurbonkhonov announced [ru] that he had hoped to sing the song at Putin's inauguration. | Taminà fandaharana mivantana iray manana ny làzany tao amin'ny fantsom-pahitalavitra NTV ao Rosia, Kurbonkhonov dia nanambàra [ru] fa nanantena ny hihira ilay hira izy nandritra ny fanokanana an'i Poutine. |
14 | Shedding light on his background, the singer also said that he had worked as a car dealer in Tajikistan before leaving for Russia to look for a better job. | Rehefa jerena ny lasany, ilay mpihira koa dia niteny fa nanao asanà mpivarotra fiara izy tany Tajikistan talohan'ny nandehanany nankany Rosia hikaroka asa tsaratsara kokoa. |
15 | Explaining his admiration of Russia's leader, he confessed that he had become a Russian citizen in 2010. | Tamin'ny fanazavany ny fiderany ny mpitarika an'i Rosia, naborany fa lasa olom-pirenena Rosiana izy hatramin'ny 2010. |
16 | On September 6, a new song by Kurbonkhonov was uploaded on YouTube, surpassing 100,000 hits in three days. | Tamin'ny 6 Septambra, hira iray vaovao an'i Kurbonkhonov no nakarina tao amin'ny YouTube, efa nahazo mpitsidika maherin'ny 100.000 tao anatin'ny telo andro. Ilay hira vaovao, “Jobilin-karavoana, Atoa. |
17 | The new hit, “Happy Jubilee, Mr. President” [ru], praises Putin's mother and urges Russians to celebrate the president's 50th birthday on October 7. Closer to the end of the song (2:28), Kurbonkhonov recites, “Dear friends, respect for the leader of the country means respect for Mother Russia. | Filoha” [ru], dia midera ny renin'i Poutine sy manentana ny Rosiana hankalaza ny faha-50 taonan'ny filoha amin'ny 7 Oktobra. Any akaikin'ny faran'ilay hira (2:28), mitanisa i Kurbonkhonov hoe , “Ry namana malàla isany, ny fanajàna ny mpitarika ny firenena dia midika fanajana ny Renin'i Rosia. |
18 | Respect him the way I do. Respect him, Russia.” | Hajao araka izay azonareo atao izy. Hajao izy, ry Rosia.” |
19 | Reactions in Tajikistan | Fanehoan-kevitra any Tajikistan |
20 | Internet users in Tajikistan were bemused by their compatriot's two first songs. | Ireo mpikirakira Aterineto ao Tajikistan dia vàka saina amin'ireo hira roa voalohan'ity mpiray tanindrazana amin-dry zareo ity. |
21 | Although the both videos have attracted some unflattering comments in Tajik on YouTube, those were effectively lost among hundreds of comments by Russians. | Na dia nisarika fanehoan-kevitra tsy dia tsara loatra amin'ny fiteny Tajik ao amin'ny YouTube aza ireo lahatsary, dia difotra tanteraka ihany izy ireny ao anatin'ireo fanehoan-kevitra an-jatony maro amin'ny fiteny Rosiana. |
22 | Reactions to the most recent video, however, indicate that many people in the country are angered by what they see as the Tajik singer's “sycophancy” and “lack of patriotism”. | Kanefa ireo fanehoan-kevitra amin'ilay lahatsary farany indrindra dia maneho fa marobe ireo olona ao amin'ny firenena no tezitra amin'izay raisin-dry zareo ho “fisolelafàna” sy “tsy fahampiana fitiavan-tanindrazana” ao amin'ilay mpihira. |
23 | Commenting under a news report on TopTJ.com about Kurbonkhonov's latest song , user “Kayfalon” wrote [ru]: | Amin'ny fitondràna fanamarihana eo ambanin'ny tati-baovao iray ao amin'ny TopTJ.com mikasika ny hira farany navoakan'i Kurbonkhonov, nanoratra i “Kayfalon” [ru] hoe : |
24 | Tajikistan should revoke his citizenship!!! | Tokony hosintonin'i Tajikistan aminy ny maha-olom-pirenena azy!!! |
25 | Let him stay in Russia. | Aleo izy hijanona any Rosia any. |
26 | He is a [contemptible person] disgracing Tajiks. | [Olona tsy manjary] manome henatra ny Tajiks izy. |
27 | User “KFRN” added [ru]: | i “KFRN” nanampy hoe [ru]: |
28 | Russians themselves don't like Putin that much in Russia. | Ireo Rosiana samy zareo avy ao Rosia rahateo aza tsy tia an'i Poutine. |
29 | Now imagine what Russians think of Tajiks when they watch this video… | Alaivo sary an-tsaina anie amin'izao fotoana e, ny mba fihevitry ry zareo Rosiana ny Tajiks rehefa mijery ity lahatsary ity ry zareo… |
30 | On “Platforma”, the largest Tajik group on Facebook, Abdumannon Sheraliev proposed [ru]: | Ao amin'ny “Platforma”, vondrona Tajiks goavana indrindra ao amin'ny Facebook, Abdumannon Sheraliev nanolotra an'ity [ru] : |
31 | I propose that the authorities make Tolibjon Kurbonkhonov a persona non grata, revoke his citizenship and do not let him into the country. | Soso-kevitro ny hoe hanaovan'ny manampahefana an'i Tolibjon Kurbonkhonov ho olona tsy irina sy voaràra, sy hisintonana ny maha-olom-pirenena azy ary tsy hamelàna azy hiditra eto amin'ny firenena. |
32 | Sycophants that praise our own [leaders] are at least tolerable, but he has disgraced all of Tajikistan. | Azo leferina ihany raha mpisolelaka manindrahindra ny [mpitarika] antsika fara-faharatsiny, saingy izy kosa nanao izay hahamenatra an'i Tajikistan manontolo. |
33 | Amid a flow of angry comments, Jasur Ashurov suggested [ru] that the singer should not be taken too seriously: | Anatin'ireo fanehoan-kevitra an-katezerana mitosaka, Jasur Ashurov nanolo-kevitra [ru] hoe tsy tokony ho raisina ho matotra loatra izay nambaran'ilay mpihira : |
34 | Well, I don't know. | Izao izany e, tsy fantatro. |
35 | In Russia, people think he is an idiot, nothing more and nothing less. | Any Rosia, heverin'ny olona ho adala izy, tsy ampiana tsy analàna. Avelao izy hihira. |
36 | Let him sing. My dog also barks under my window all night long - and she does not disgrace anybody ) | Ny alika vaviko aza mba mivovo foana eo ambany varavarankeliko eo mandritra ny alina - fa tsy manao izay mampietry voninahitra olona izy an. |
37 | As Facebook users continue discussing a possible punishment for Kurbonkhonov's “sycophancy” in Russia, Ashurov makes [ru] another proposal: | Raha mbola manohy miady hevitra momba izay sazy mety ho ampiharina amin'ny “fisolelahan'i” Kurbonkhonov any Rosia ireo mpampiasa Facebook, Ashurov manome [ru] soso-kevitra iray hafa: |
38 | He should be told, in a very gentle way, that he is being ridiculous. | Tokony hambara azy, amin'ny fomba mihaja, fa kaondrana lery. |
39 | For example, we can establish an Internet-wide award, “Jester of the Year”, and present the award to [Kurbonkhonov], in all categories. | Ohatra, afaka mametraka loka ety anaty Aterineto isika ho an'izay “jester mpanao hatsikan'ny Taona”, ary atolotra ho an'i [Kurbonkhonov] ilay loka, amin'ny sokajy rehetra. |
