1 | Philippines: Reactions to Proposed National Bloggers’ Association | Filipina: Ireo hevitra manoloana ny fikambanan'ny bilaogera eto an-toerana |
2 | There is an on-going debate amongst Filipino bloggers regarding the proposed formation of a ‘National Bloggers' Association'. | Mandeha ny adihevitra eo anivon'ny mpitoraka bilaogy Filipina izay mikasika ny soso-kevitra hananganana ny ‘Fikambanana bilaogera eto an-toerana [nasionaly]”. |
3 | It all started back in January 31 when blogger Janet Toral asked in a blog post ‘Are you in favor of a National Bloggers Association?‘ | Nanomboka ny 31 janoary izany raha nanontany ny lahatsoratra iray ao amin'ny bilaogy i Janet Toral hoe “ Mankasitraka ny Fikambanan'ny bilaogera eto an-toerana ve ianareo?‘ |
4 | The purpose of the said organization shall be: | Ny tanjon'ny fikambanana dia: |
5 | [to] interact with policy makers, both government and private groups, who are interested in crafting guidelines that will have an effect to the blogging community. | [Mba] hiara-hiasa amin'ireo mpanapa-kevitra, ny governemanta sy ny fikambanana tsy miankina , izay liana amin'ny famolavolana ny torolalana ka hisy fiantraikany amin'ny fiombonan'ny bilaogera. |
6 | As soon as it was published, bloggers on both sides of the fence - those in favor and against the proposal have expressed their respective positions. | Raha navoaka izany, ireo bilaogera roa tonta, izay momba sy manohitra ny soso-kevitra dia samy nanambara ny hevitr'izy ireo tsirairay avy. |
7 | It is interesting to note that those who support the idea of forming a national bloggers' association do so with some reservations. | Tsara ny manamarika fa ireo izay manohana ny hevitra handrafetana ny Fikambanan'ny bilaogera eto an-toerana dia tokony hitandrina. |
8 | Regnard Raquedan suggests that the idea should be refined into an organization of ‘professional' bloggers instead of representing all Filipino bloggers: | Nanolo-kevitra i Regnard Raquedan fa izany eritreritra izany dia tokony hodiovina ao anatin'ny fikambanan'ny “matihanina” fa tsy ny bilaogera Filipina rehetra no atao solontena: |
9 | This group should not pursue bloggers who are blogging as a hobby and as a means of expression. | Ity fikambanana ity dia tsy tokony hanenjika ireo bilaogera izay manao ny bilaogy ho toy ny fialam-boly sy fomba ahafahana maneho hevitra. |
10 | And clearly, the group should present itself as a representative of the professional bloggers, not all bloggers in general. | Mazava ho azy, fa ny fikambanana dia tokony hampahafantatra ny tenany amin'ireo solontenan'ny bilaogera matihanina, fa tsy ny bilaogera rehetra. |
11 | Making such a claim would be | Tokony atao izany filazana izany |
12 | I believe no one group can represent the Philippine blogosphere- it's akin to attempting to represent all those who can express themselves. | Mino aho fa tsy misy fikambanana na dia iray aza mahasolontena ny tontolombolongana Filipina- fa toa fanandramana ihany ny hampiseho ireo rehetra izay afaka miteny . |
13 | But I believe that a group focused on one aspect of blogging, that is professional blogging or blogging with an agenda, can be helpful in legitimizing Philippine blogging as a practice. | Nefa mino aho fa ny fikambanana dia nifantoka amin'ny endriky ny blaogy, izay bilaogy matihanina sy bilaogy misy fandaharam-potoana tsara, hampahazoana fitokisana ny Bilaogy Filipina mba ho toy ny fomba fanao . |
14 | Bjornson Bernales puts his faith on the idea that there's wisdom in setting up such an organization and hopes that along the way, things will get more refined and clear: | Mametraka ny fatokisany amin'ny hevitra i Bjornson Bernales fa misy ny fahendrena tamin'ny fametrahana ny fikambanana ary matoky izy fa mbola ho lava ny lalana, ary ho mazava sy voadio ny zavatra rehetra: |
15 | It is still immature for me to say about the structure of the Philippine Bloggers Association. | Mbola tsy matotra amiko ny filazana momba ny firafitry ny fikambanana bilaogera Filipina. |
16 | But the one thing I am sure about is that I would like to be part of it. | Fa ny zavatra iray izay antenaiko dia ny faniriana ho mpikambana ao. |
17 | I respect the views of other bloggers. | Manaja ny hevitr'ireo bilaogera hafa aho. |
18 | And that makes the blogoshere colorful with different views and opinions, maintaining an equilibrium between the yin and yang. | Izay mahatonga ny tontolombolongana miloko manana karazana fijery sy hevitra, ary mihazona ny fifandanjan'ny yin sy ny yang. |
19 | But I still say yes to Philippine Bloggers Association. | Mbola milaza amin'ny fikambanana bilaogera Filipina aho hoe eny. |
20 | I dream of being a full-pledged Problogger. | Manofy ny ho lasa fanantenana feno mpanohana ireo bilaogera aho. |
21 | It is not because I am motivated of money and power. | Tsy hoe satria aho manambola sy manana fahefana. |
22 | It is because I sense and aspire win-win situations in which bloggers have concerns about and are a part of. | Fa satria tsapako ary miaina ny fahalavorarian'ny toe-javatra aho izay mahakasika ny bilaogera sy anisan'izy ireo. |
23 | Aileen Apolo took some time to read back on the history of earlier efforts of putting up a similar organization of bloggers in other countries - all of which had failed - and maintains a neutral stance: | Naka fotoana namakiana indray ny tantaran'ireo ezaka teo aloha tamin'ny fametrahana ny fikambanan'ny bilaogera amin'ny firenena hafa i Aileen Apolo - izay tsy nahomby avokoa -ary maka toerana tsy mirona amin'ny atsy na eroa: |
24 | So this proposal about a National Bloggers Association… I don't know, I think I'll stick to joining or participating in select projects/activities since any attempt in the past (this the the nth attempt) never really flourished. | Ka ireo sosokevitra momba ny Fikambanan'ny bilaogera eto an-toerana…tsy fantatro tsara, nefa matoky aho fa hiditra sy handray anjara amin'ny fisafidianana ny tetikasa/ ireo zavatra atao satria dia tsy nisy namokatra avokoa ireo fanandramana natao teo aloha. |
25 | Besides organizations really work with just a handful of people moving (I've observed that with local professional orgs too), so its actually better sometimes to just have interest groups work with different projects to get more traction. | Fanampin'izany, ny fikambanana dia miara-miasa tokoa amin'ny olona vitsivitsy mifindrafindra toerana (nahatsikaritra matihanaina teo an-toerana aho tamin'izany), koa ankehitriny dia tsara indraindray ny manana tombotsoa amin'ny fiaraha-miasa ny fikambanana amin'ny karazana tetikasa mba ahazoana fitarihana bebe kokoa . |
26 | Well, it's a free country and everybody has a choice :) | Koa, firenena malalaka izy ka manana ny safidiny ny olona tsirairay avy |
27 | On the other hand, bloggers who oppose the formation of national bloggers' association have come out to state their case. | Etsy andaniny, ny bilaogera izay manohitra ny fananganana ny fikambanan'ny bilaogera eto an-toerana [nasionaly] dia nivoaka mba hampiseho ny momba azy ireo. |
28 | Janitor Al takes the idea head on in a rather blunt and scathing manner: | Nandray ny hevitra tamin-kerisetra sy tamin-kasosorana i Janitor Al : |
29 | It's stupid because its creation can potentially generate more of the same kinds of problems that it seeks to address. | Tsy misy dikany izany satria ny famoronana izany dia mety mahatonga olana mitovy ihany izay itadiavany vahaolana indray avy eo. |
30 | For instance, while it seeks to unify bloggers, it seems rather obvious that this idea has caused much division. | Ohatra amin'izany, raha nitady hanakambana ireo bilaogera izy , dia toa niharihary fa niteraka fisarahana betsaka indray izany hevitra izany . |
31 | Ironic? | Maneso? |
32 | Perhaps. | Angamba. |
33 | Stupid? | Hadalana? |
34 | I would say definitely. ….. | Izay no tena tiko lazaina. ….. |
35 | Personally, I also find the endeavor rather pompous. | Amiko manokana, dia hitako somary mirentirenty ny ezaka natao. Tsia. |
36 | No. Not ambitious. | Tsy tia fivoarana. |
37 | Pompous. | Mirentirenty. |
38 | The assumption that they can bring the millions upon millions of bloggers to band together and agree on this reeks of arrogance. | Vinavina fotsiny mba ahafahany mitondra bilaogera an-tapitrisa ambonin'ny tapitrisa hikambana ary hanaiky izany rehareha izany. |
39 | Let's look at one particular example, the notion of representation. | Andeha hijery ohatra manokana, ny momba ny fisoloantena. |
40 | Given the status quo, while there may be some who might seem to represent bloggers in a bad light, the lot of us can easily say, “No. Those bloggers do not in any official manner represent me or any other blogger for that matter.” | Raha ny toe-javatra tsy miova, angamba raha misy sasany afaka misolotena ny bilaogera amin'ny andro ratsy, ny ankamaroantsika dia hiteny tsy ampihambahambana hoe , “Tsia”. Ireo bilaogera ireo dia tsy manao fihetsika ofisialy hisolotena ahy na bilaogera hafa amin'izany resaka izany .” |
41 | And in most cases, that will be the end of it. | Ary ny ankamaroan'ny tranga, dia mety toy izay no hiafaran'io zavatra io. |
42 | Enter now an actual “association” claiming to represent all of us bloggers. | Ampidiro ankehitriny ny tena”fikambanana” mitaky ny hisolotena antsika bilaogera rehetra. |
43 | Given the ease by which most of traditional media still misunderstand the blogosphere, the danger here is that this “association” could very well be regarded by the mainstream as a de facto official representative. | Raha ny fahatsorany izay ny ankabetsahan'ny fampitam-baovao taloha dia mbola tsy mahafantatra tsara ny tontolombolongana , ny mampatahotra eto dia ny ijeren'ny haino amanjery mahaztra ity ‘fikambanana' ity ho mahasolotena ofisialy. |
44 | Who the hell gave them that right? | Fa iza no nanome azy ireo izany zo izany? |
45 | The Mommy Bloggers Club not only opposes the idea of a national bloggers' association because it would be adverse to blogging's inherently personal and independent nature, she puts forward a counter-proposal: | Ny Mommy Bloggers Club dia tsy manohitra ihany ny hevitra momba ny fikambanan'ny bilaogera nasionaly fa satria mety hifanohitra ny bilaogy tena izy miankina sy tsy miankina , mandroso soso-kevitra mifanipaka izy: |
46 | If we really want an organization to fight for our right, in terms of ethics, copy right issues and income, I would rather suggest having a Bloggers Cooperative, where one get to share ideas, skills, and income opportunities. | Raha maniry hanana fikambanana hiady ny zon-tsika isika , amin'ny resaka etika, ny zon'ny mpanoratra sy ny vola miditra, tiako koa ny manolo-kevitra mba hanana Fiaraha-miasa ny Bilaogera, izay ahafahan'ny tsirairay mizara ny heviny, ny fahaizany, ary izay mety ho vola raisina. |
47 | We can have a fund for all bloggers in the country to share and invest. | Afaka manana renivola isika ho an'ireo bilaogera rehetra eto amin'ny firenena mba ho zaraina sy ampiasaina. |
48 | We can continue what we love doing, blogging, without being regulated but are progressive. | Afaka manohy izay tiantsika atao, na mitoraka bilaogy, tsy misy fitsipi-pifehezana fa kosa mihatsara hatrany. |
49 | Ms Noemi Dado joins in this position and also offers an alternative: | Niditra tamin'ity fihevitra ity i Ms Noemi Dado sady nanolotra safidy roa: |
50 | While I do agree with a collective set of ethical standards for bloggers , I am not convinced on the establishment of a national blogging organization. | Raha manaiky ny fitambarana miaraka momba ny fitsipiky ny etika ho an'ny bilaogera aho, dia tsy resy lahatra amin'ny fametrahana ny fikambanan'ny bilaogera nasionaly. |
51 | Bloggers are so diverse and may not want to belong to one big group for one reason or another. | Isan-karazany ireo bilaogera ka mety tsy hiditra amin'ny fikambanana lehibe iray noho ny antony maro samihafa. |
52 | Before the establishment of an organization, a set of ethical standards should first be deliberated and agreed upon in a conference or summit, then the rest can follow. | Mialoha ny fametrahana ny fikambanana, ny fitsipika momba ny etika dia tokony hodinihina ary ekena amin'ny fivoriana sy ny fihaonambe, ary afaka manaraka ny ambiny avy eo. |
53 | With more and more bloggers starting to weigh in and take sides, the debate on the ‘national bloggers' association' is far from being over. | Mbola tsy tapitra ny adi-hevitra momba ny fikambanan'ny bilaogera eto an-toerana noho ny fahamaroan'ny bilaogera maka ny andaniny sy ny ankilany. |
