1Greece: Criticism of Politicians During Theophany CelebrationsGresy: Fanakianana Ireo Mpanao Politika Nandritra Ny Fankalazàna Ny Theophany
2This article is part of our special coverage Europe in Crisis.Ity lahatsoratra ity dia ampahany amin'ny tatitray momba an'i Eraopa anaty Fahasahirànana.
3In Greece, January 6 is the national holiday of Theophany, traditionally known as Phota (“lights”).Tao Gresy, ny 6 Janoary dia androm-pirenena fankalazàna ny Theophany, fantatra hatry ny ela amin'ny hoe Phota (“hazavàna”).
4Customs revolve around the Great Blessing of the Waters: a cross is thrown into the water and people try to retrieve it in order to receive good luck and blessings.Ireo fomba amam-panao ireo dia mihodina manodidina ny Fitahiana Lehibe Avy Amin'ny Rano : atsipy any anaty rano ny hazofijaliana iray ary miezaka ny hàka azy io ny olona mba handraisana vintana tsara sy fitahiana.
5Every year, government and civic officials attend the celebrations, after which they have an opportunity to make official statements on the spiritual importance of the day, along with political and social comments.Isan-taona, ny governemanta sy ireo mpiasam-bahoaka dia mandray anjara amin'ilay fankalazàna, ka aorian'izany no ananan'izy ireo fotoana hanaovana fanambaràna amin'ny fomba ofisialy momba ny maha-zava-dehibe ara-pinoana an'io andro io, laroina fanehoan-kevitra ara-politika sy ara-tsosialy.
6However, due to the economical, political and social crisis Greece is going through, this year's celebrations were marked by strong expressions of people's disapproval and criticism of politicians.Kanefa, noho ny fahasahirànana ara-toekarena, politika ary sosialy lalovan'i Gresy, ny fankalazàna tamin'ity taona ity dia voamariky ny fanehoan-kevitra mivaivay avy amin'ny vahoaka amin'ny tsy hafaliany sy ny fanakianany an'ireo mpanao politika.
7This came as no surprise, as it happened earlier during the national celebrations of “Ochi” day on October 28, when President Karolos Papoulias was forced to leave after protesters called him a traitor.Tsy dia nahagaga loatra ny nisian'izany, satria tahaka izay efa niseho rahateo tany aloha nandritra ny androm-pirenena fankalazàna ny “Ochi” tamin'ny 28 Oktobra, rehefa voatery niàla ny Filoha Karolos Papoulias taorian'ny nilazan'ireo mpanao hetsi-panoherana azy ho mpamadika.
8Chalkida, EviaChalkida, Evia
9It happened again this time, when President Papoulias appeared at Chalkida, despite the tradition of going to Piraeus, the country's major port.Nitranga indray izany tamin'ity indray mandeha ity, rehefa niseho tao Chalkida ny Filoha Papoulias, raha tokony ho tany Piraeus, seranana lehibe ao amin'ny firenena, no nalehany araka ny fomba fanao.
10Citizens booed him, calling him a traitor and shouting anti-austerity slogans, as the following video [el] shows:Nohorakorahan'ny vahoaka izy, niantso azy ho mpamadika sy niventy teny faneva manohitra ny fanenjanana ny fitantànana, araka izay asehon'ity lahatsary [el] manaraka ity :
11A small group tried to reach the dignitaries' podium, but were blocked by the police.Nisy vondron'olona kely niezaka ny ho tonga teny amin'ny lampihazo nisy ireo olo-manankaja, saingy voasakan'ny mpitandro filaminana.
12The president departed making no official statement.Nandao ny toerana tsy nanao fanambaràna ofisialy ny filoha.
13Chalkida's police arrested six citizens, three men and three women, and a file was submitted accusing them of “insulting the President of the Republic's honor”.Ny mpitandro filaminana tao Chalkida dia nisambotra olona enina, telo lahy sy telo vavy, ary dia nisokatra ny antontan-taratsy iray miampanga azy ireo ho “nanevateva ny voninahitry ny Filohan'ny Repoblika”.
14The city prosecutor ordered their release.Namoaka didy famotsorana azy ireo ny mpampanoa lalàna tao amin'ilay tanàna.
15Netizens commented both on the jeering of Papoulias and the demonstrators' arrest, with a large majority in favor of the arrested and against the major public figure's behavior and inaction concerning the current crisis:Samy nanehoan'ireo mponin'ny aterineto hevitra avokoa na ny momba ny horakoraka nahazo an'i Papoulias, na ny fisamborana ireo mpanao fihetsiketsehana, ka ny maro indrindra tamin'izany dia nomba ireo voasambotra sy nanohitra ny fitondrantenan'ny manampahefana ary ny tsy fandraisana andraikitra manoloana ny fahasahiranana misy amin'izao fotoana :
16NO IMPORTANT PERSON IS HE.TSY MISY DIKANY IZAY MAHA-OLONA AMBONY AZY ANY.
17THEY DID WELL.TSARA NY NATAON-DRY ZAREO.
18Karolos Papoulias must probably have requested an injunction against all citizens.Tsy miantsy nanome baiko hentitra mikasika ny vahoaka manontolo i Karolos Papoulias.
19If you approach within a 50m radius, you are under arrest.Raha vao manakaiky ny faritry ny 50m manodidina azy ianao, dia ho voasambotra.
20Since when is freedom of speech and expression under prosecution?Hatramin'ny oviana ny fahalalahana miteny sy maneho hevitra no azo enjehana araka ny lalàna?
21Because the article doesn't mention that they [the arrested citizens] booed him by throwing objects or physically assaulting him!Satria ny lahatsoratra tsy manao fanamarihana mihitsy hoe ry zareo [ireo olona nosamborina] dia nihorakoraka azy sy nanipy zavatra tany aminy na nanohintohina azy ara-batana!
22We will totally lose our mind…Ho very tanteraka ny saintsika…
23A different view was held by a small minority:Vitsivitsy no nanohana fomba fijery iray hafa mihitsy :
24But what's the President of the Republic's fault?Fa inona anefa no hadisoan'ny Filohan'ny Repoblika e?
25I'm not in the mood to defend Papoulias, whom I considered to be a traitor long before the crisis outburst, but on the other hand, it gets too “picturesque”, to emphasize some jeering incidents.Tsy ao anatin'ny saina amam-panahiko ny hiaro an'i Papoulias, izay efa ela talohan'ny nirehetan'ny fahasahirànana no noraisiko ho mpamadika , saingy amin'ny lafiny iray, toa lasa “lokoina” tafahoatra loatra, ny fanatavezana ny sasany amin'ny tranga nihorakorahana azy.
26Five bizarre “indignados” gather and protest and that becomes a major issue.Olona hafahafa “indignados” (tsy faly) dimy no mifamory sy manao hetsi-panoherana dia efa lasa olana goavana izay.
27[…] A bit of seriousness is not harmful to anyone.[…] Tsy mahafaty na iza na iza ny fanehoana fahamatorana faran'izay kely monja.
28Kitsos stresses that nobody can impose respect on people:Kitsos dia manindry fa tsy misy na iza na iza afaka hanery ny hafa hanaja azy :
29Respect is inspired!Zavatra sitrahana ny fanajàna!
30If you lose people's respect, you cannot impose it, even with an army of a thousand.Raha very ny fanajàn'ny olona anao, tsy azonao atao mihitsy ny mitaky izany, na dia miaraka aminà miaramila an'arivony aza.
31Old leaders knew this, these were the ones that said, “My strength is my people's love.”Nahafantatra tsara an'izany ireo zokiolona mpitarika fahiny, izy ireny no isan'ny niteny hoe : “Ny fitiavan'ny vahoakako no heriko.”
32Dimitris Vlachos wonders why the news was reported as if only a small percentage of people openly expressed their disrespect for the President:Dimitris Vlachos dia manontany tena ny amin'ny antony nitateran'ny vaovao tahaka ny hoe isan-jaton'olona faran'izay bitika no naneho ampahibemaso ny tsy fanjàny ny Filoha :
33“From a small group of people?”“Avy aminà vondron'olona bitika?”
34Everybody booed at him!Ny tsirairay mihitsy no nihorakoraka azy !
35The previous day, commenting on an article that announced Papoulias' appearance in Chalkida instead of Piraeus, Dimitris N. had “predicted”:Ny andro nialoha io, tamin'ny fanehoan-kevitra taminà lahatsoratra iray izay nanambàra ny fisehoan'i Papoulias tao Chalkida raha tokony ho tany Piraeus, Dimitris N. dia “naminavina” hoe:
36Oh well, he will be told off; however, I've got this feeling that he won't go even there [Chalkida], instead he will remain inside the presidential palace… Wherever he goes, people will spoil the show…Mazava loatra, ho voakiana izy; kanefa, toa raha ny fahatsapako dia tsy handeha akory ho any [Chalkida] izy, aleony mijanona ao anatin'ny lapam-panjakana… Na aiza na aiza alehany, hokorontanin'ny olona foana ny lanonana…
37Secondly, citizens also criticized the fact that the Prime Minister Loukas Papadimos of the interim coalition government didn't have the time to attend any celebrations, apparently due to his workload.Faharoan'izay, nokianin'ny vahoaka ihany koa ny hoe ny Praiministry ny governemantan'ny marimaritra iraisana, Loukas Papadimos, dia tsy nanam-potoana nanatrehana fotoam-pankalazàna na iray aza, noho ny fandaharam-potoanany feno be.
38A post on apospasma.gr said:Lahatsoratra iray ao amin'ny apospasma.gr no miteny hoe :
39[…] he didn't dare go to the Blessing of the Waters in Piraeus, because he would be shot down.[…] tsy sahiny ny nandeha tany amin'ny Andron'ny Fitahian'ny Rano tany Piraeus, satria mety ho matahotra sao hisy hitifitra.

41Earlier, in Athens, Minister of Education Anna Diamantopoulou was jeered during celebrations at Dexameni in Kolonaki.Vao haingana, tao Athens, ny Minisitry ny ny Fanabeazana, Anna Diamantopoulou, dia nohorakorana nandritra ny fankalazana tao Dexameni any Kolonaki.
42In this video [el], people are heard to shout “Good digestion!”Ao anatin'ity lahatsary ity [el], re ireo olona mihiaka hoe “Mahalevona tsara!”
43(usually used after the “Bon appetit” expression in Greek) and “Bring offshore companies' money back”:( matetika ampiasain'ny Grika aorian'ny teny hoe “Mazotoa homana”) ary hoe “Ento miverina ny volan'ireo Orinasa afak'haba”:
44The general disapproval of politicians, especially representatives of the two major political parties (PASOK and ND), caused once again a long discourse on personal responsibility and the support of current politicians:Ny tsy hafaliana faobe manoloana ireo mpanao politika, indrindra indrindra fa ireo olom-boafidy avy amin'ireo antoko roa lehibe (PASOK sy ND), dia niteraka indray mandeha indray adihevitra lavabe momba ny andraikitry ny tsirairay sy ny fanohanan'ireo mpanao politika amin'izao fotoana:
45Nikos Prassas: Καλά είναι τα μασκαριλίκια, οι αποδοκιμασίες και οι αντιπολιτευτικές διαμαρτυρίες, το μόνο εύκολο!Nikos Prassas: Καλά είναι τα μασκαριλίκια, οι αποδοκιμασίες και οι αντιπολιτευτικές διαμαρτυρίες, το μόνο εύκολο!
46Κάποτε όμως καταντούν και κουραστικές, όταν δεν υπάρχουν προτεινόμενες λύσεις!Κάποτε όμως καταντούν και κουραστικές, όταν δεν υπάρχουν προτεινόμενες λύσεις!
47Masquerades, fanfares, protests and oppositional parades are very nice, it's the easiest thing!Ireo fanarian-dia, fanafànan-dresaka, hetsi-panoherana sy diaben'ny mpanohitra dia samy mahafinaritra avokoa, izay no zavatra tsotra indrindra!
48Someday, they degenerate, however, when there are no solutions to suggest!Indray andro, na izany aza, dia niharatsy ireny rehefa tsy nisy vahaolana azo naroso intsony!
49All of you that curse the politicians (you are doing the right thing), Europe and all that, let's wonder once: during the 30 years of the Metapolitefsi [period in Greek history after the fall of the military Junta in 1974], what did “I” do for my country in order not to reach this point today?Ianareo rehetra izay manakiana ny mpanao politika ( ary mety ny ataonareo), Eraopa sy ny sisa, meteza hanontany tena indray mandeha monja : nandritra ny 30 taona nisian'ny Metapolitefsi [vanim-potoana teo amin'ny tantaran'ny Grika taorian'ny nianjeran'ny fitondrana miaramika tamin'ny 1974], inona no mba natao”-ko” ho an'ny fireneko mba tsy hahatongavana amin'izao toerana izao androany?
50I think you are furious because you have lost all your comforts.Heveriko fa misafoaka ianareo satria very daholo ny fiadananareo.
51An indignado…along with everyone else“indignado” iray…anatin'ny maro hafa
52Same topic, different trendLohahevitra toy izay ihany, fironana samihafa
53Meanwhile, however, the news trending on social media was that Apostolos Gkletsos, a popular actor and now Mayor of Stylida town, managed eventually to get into the water and compete to catch the holy cross - noteworthy as he suffers from heart disease.Mandritra izany anefa, ny vaovao noresahana betsaka any anaty media sosialy dia hoe i Apostolos Gkletsos, mpisehatra malaza iray sady ben'ny tanàna ankehitriny ao Stylida, dia nahavita nitsoraka tany anaty rano mba hifaninana haka ilay hazofijaliana masina - tsara marihana satria izy dia olona manana aretin'ny fo.
54The “importance” given to this fact was humorously commented on on Twitter:Ny “lanja” nomena izay tranga izay dia narahana fanehoan-kevitra mahatsikaiky tao amin'ny on Twitter:
55In Stylida, Gkletsos is getting prepared to dive to catch the cross.Tao Stylida, Gkletsos dia niomana hisitrika anaty rano sy haka ny hazofijaliana.
56Best news since the Metapolitefsi period.Ny vaovao tsara indrindra hatramin'ny vanim-potoanan'ny Metapolitefsi.
57Today, Gkletsos is not going to dive.Androany, tsy hitsoraka i Gkletsos.
58He will be walking on water.Eny ambony rano izy no hamindra.
59The celebration of Theophany also brought out some cynicism and cold facts, for example from Teacherdude and Yns_x:Ny fankalazàna ny Theophany koa dia nitondra zava-manorisory sy henjankenjana, ohatra ireo avy amin'ny Teacherdude sy Yns_x:
60The Celebration of Phota (lights) was canceled this year - we are not going to pay the extra taxes for DEI (Public Power Corporation of Greece).Ny fankalazàna ny Phota (hazavàna) dia nofoanana tamin'ity taona ity - tsy handoa ny tataon-ketra isika, ho an'ny DEI (Vondron'orinasam-panjakana mpamatsy angovo ao Gresy).
61In the Evros river [the natural border between Greece and Turkey], Theophany is celebrated every day - hundreds of immigrants dive into its waters to touch a miracle, if any.Ao amin'ny reniranon'i Evros [ilay sisintany nanahary eo anelanelan'i Gresy sy Tiorkia], ny Theophany dia ankalazaina isanandro - anjatony ireo mpifindra monina no mitsoraka ao anaty rano ao manantena hahita fahagagàna, raha misy izany.
