4 | Human rights activists and politicians have criticized the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) for distorting a statement by Chaloka Beyani, United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Human Rights of Internally-Displaced Persons (IDPs). | Notsikerain'ireo mpiaro ny zon'olombelona sy ny mpanao politika ny Tafika Mitam-piadiana any Filipina noho ny nandikàny vilana ny fanambaràn'i Chaloka Beyani, mpitondra teny manokan'ny Firenena Mikambana momba ny zon'ireo olona nafindra toeram-ponenana fa ao amin'ny fireneny ihany (IDPs). |
5 | A press release issued by the AFP's Eastern Mindanao Command quoted UN's Beyani as saying that the internally displaced indigenous peoples who have sought refuge in a church compound in Davao City are “not evacuees, but victims of trafficking.” | Fanambaràna iray an-gazety navoakan'ny AFP-n'ny Eastern Mindanao Command (Komandin'i Mindanao Atsinanana) no niteny fa nolazain'i Beyiani avy amin'ny Firenena Mikambana fa “tsy nafindra toerana mba harovana” ireo vahoaka indizena nafindra toeram-ponenana ka nahita fialokalofana tao anatin'ny fiangonan'i Davao City ireo fa “niharan'ny fanondranana antsokosoko”. |
6 | Beyani issued a strongly-worded statement reiterating that the military press release is “incorrect, unacceptable, and represents a gross distortion of [his] views on this issue.” | Nanao fanambaràna hentitra i Beyani, izay namerenany fa ” tsy marina, tsy azo ekena, ary mamilana ny fomba fijeriny momba ity olana ity” ny fanambaràna an-gazety nataon'ny tafika. |
7 | Over 700 Ata-Manobos have been staying at the United Churches of Christ in the Philippines (UCCP) Haran Mission House compound in Davao City, located in the southern part of the Philippines, since May of this year. | Maherin'ny 700 ireo Ata-Manobos nijanona tao amin'ny Firaisan'ny Fiangonan'i Kristy any Filipina (UCCP) ao amin'ny Tànanan'ny Misiona Haran any Davao City, any amin'ny tapany atsimon'i Filipina, hatramin'ny volana May tamin'ity taona ity. |
8 | They assert that they were forced to leave their homes in Talaingod, Davao del Norte and other parts of Mindanao because of the alleged heavy military presence and forced conscription into government-backed paramilitary groups in their communities. | Hizingizinin-dry zareo fa noterena hiala ny tranony tany Talaingod, Davao del Norte ary tany amin'ny faritra sasany any Mindanao ry zareo noho ny honohono momba ny fisianà miaramila betsaka sy firotsahana arahan-terisetra ho anaty vondrona milisy tohanan'ny governemanta ao anatn'ny vondrom-piarahamonin-dry zareo. |
9 | The police attempted to “rescue” the Ata Manobos last July 23 by forcibly removing them from the church compound and returning them to their villages. | Tamin'ny 23 Jolay, noezahan'ny mpitandro filaminana “navotana” ireo Ata Manobos, tamin'ny fangalàna azy ireo tamin-kery tao anatin'ny faritry ny fiangonana sy namerenana azy tany an-tanànany. |
10 | The Ata Manobos, however, resisted and asserted that they will not return until military troops are pulled out from their homes. | Nefa nandà ireo Ata Manobos ary nilaza fa tsy hiverina raha tsy miala any an-tanànany ireo andian-tafika. |
11 | The military and the police have filed cases of human trafficking against rights advocates and church workers who have helped the Ata-Manobos seek sanctuary in the UCCP compound. | Nanao taratasy fitoriana ny mpiaro ny zon'olombelona sy ireo mpiasan'ny fiangonana izay nanampy ny Ata-Manobos amin'ny fitadiavana fialokalofana ao an'ivon'ny UCCP momba ny raharaha fanondranana olona ny tafika sy ny mpitandro filaminana. |
12 | Rights advocates questioned the military's version of Beyani's statements, saying this directly contradicted the official report issued by Beyani after concluding his 10-day visit to the country: | Nampametra-panontaniana ny mpiaro ny Zon'olombelona ny fandikan'ny tafika ny fanambaràn'i Beyani, tamin'ny filazàny fa mifanohitra tanteraka amin'ny tatitra ôfisialy nataon'i Beyani rehefa namarana ny fitsidihany 10 andro tany amin'io firenana io izy : |
13 | I heard from the AFP [military] its assertion that it is seeking to protect the communities and provide services to them in conflict regions; however the displaced IPs made it clear that it is their presence and that of the paramilitary groups in their communities that continues to create anxiety amongst the indigenous communities. | Reko tamin'ny [tafika] AFP ny fanamafisany fa eo am-pikarohana izay hiarovana ireo vondrom-piarahamonina sy hanomezana tolora ho azy ireo any amin'ireo faritry ny fifandirana izy ; nefa nazavain'ireo IPs tsara fa ny fisian'izy ireo sy ireo vondrona milisy ao anatin'ny vondrom-piarahamonina no mitohy mampisy ny fitaintainana eo amin'ireo vondrom-piarahamonina indizena. |
14 | The community wishes to return to its lands but stressed to me that they will only feel safe to do so if the long-term militarization of their region comes to an end and they can return with guarantees of safety, dignity and protection. | Te-hody any amin'ny taniny ny vondrom-piarahamonina saingy namafisiny tamiko fa tsy hahatsapa fandriampahalemana mihitsy ry zareo raha tsy mifarana ny fifehezana lavareny ataon'ny tafika any amin'ny faritra misy azy ka afaka hody am-pilaminana, amim-pahamendrehana ary amim-pahatoniana ry zareo. |

17 | Beyani's media liaison reiterated that his exit statement “represent the official findings and views of the Special Rapporteur, including in relation to those indigenous people in Davao.” | Naverin'ny haino aman-jery mifandray amin'i Beyani fa ny fanambaràny teo am-piaingana dia ” maneho ny fehinteny ôfisialy sy ny fomba fijerin'ilay Mpitondra teny manokana, ao anatin'izany ny momba ireo vahoaka indizena any Davao.” |
18 | Aside from insisting that the refugees were victims of human trafficking, the military has quoted Beyani as saying that the refugees were “manipulated” by activist groups into being “trafficked” and “detained” in the UCCP compound. | Ankoatry ny fanizingizinana fa olona iharan'ny fanondranana ireo mpialokaloka ireo dia notanisain'ny tafika fa notenenin'i Beyani hoe ” nolalaovin” ireo vondrona mafana fo mba “haondrana” sy “ho gadraina” ao anatin'ny UCCP ireo mpialokaloka ireo. |
19 | In fact, the recording indicates that it was the police who stormed the church compound who were referred to as “manipulated.” | Raha ny marina dia ambaran'ilay rakipeo fa ireo mpitandro filaminana izay nanao bemidina tao anatin'ny fiangonana, ireo no tondroina ho “nolalaovina”. |
20 | Bayan Muna (Nation First) Representative Carlos Isagani Zarate said that the distortion of the UN official's statement was meant “to discredit him, undermine his official actions as well as the UN mechanisms.” | Nolazain'i Carlos Isagani Zarate solontena (Voalohan'ny Firenena) Bayan Muna fa nidika ” ho fanalàna baràka azy, fanamaivanana ny asany ôfisialy sy ny fampandehanan-draharaha ao amin'ny Firenena Mikambana ” ny fandikàna vilana ny fanambarana ôfisialin'ny Firenena Mikambana. |
21 | Gabriela Women's Representative Luzviminda Ilagan meanwhile said that the incident is “a grievous diplomatic faux pas that puts the Philippine government which invited Dr. Beyani in an awkward and embarrassing situation.” | Mandritra izany fotoana izany dia nolazain'i Gabriela, Solontenan'ny Vehivavy Luzviminda Ilagan fa ” fahadisoam-pamindra politika izay mametraka ny governemanta Filipiana izay nanasa an'i Dr Beyani ho amin'ny toe-draharaha mahamenatra sy manahirana ” iny trangan-javatra iny. |
22 | In her blog, journalist Inday Varona pointed out that the video recordings of Beyani's exit briefing with army officials in Camp Aguindaldo released by the military prove that they actually left out key passages in their version of Beyani's statement: | Nasongadin'ilay mpanao gazety, Inday Varona, tao amin'ny bilaoginy fa ilay lahatsary navoakan'ny tafika, mirakitra ny teny fohy nataon'i Beyani teo am-pivoahana ny toby Aguindaldo niaraka tamin'ireo tompon'andraikitra miaramila, dia manaporofo fa nisy andalan-teny manan-danja nahilik'izy ireo tao amin'ny dikateny nataon'izy ireo avy amin'ilay fanambaràn'i Beyani : |
23 | Did the the AFP break protocol in leaking the conversation with Beyani? | Moa ve nodikain'ny AFP ny fenitra tamin'ny nanaporitsahana ny resadresaka tamin'i Beyani ? |
24 | Only the UN office can answer that. | Ny biraon'ny Firenena Mikambana irery ihany no afaka mamaly izany. |
25 | The leak does show the truth. | Mampiseho ny marina ilay fiparitahana. |
26 | It shows the public that the AFP did delete substantial and critical portions of Beyani's statements. | Aharihariny amin'ny vahoaka fa novonoin'ny AFP ilay ampahany mavesa-danja sy tena ilaina tamin'ny fanambaran'i Beyani. |
27 | The AFP had issued an official statement that it is standing by its own interpretation of Beyani's remarks. | Navoakan'ny AFP ny fanambarana ôfisialy iray nilazàny fa io no fandikàny manokana ny fanamarihan'i Beyani. |
28 | But today, they apologized to the UN official. | Nefa amin'izao fotoana izao ry zareo niala tsiny tamin'ny Mpiasan'ny Firenena Mikambana. |
29 | Furthermore, the spokesman of the regional unit of the army has resigned his position. | Ankoatr'izay, efa nametra-pialàna tsy ho amin'ny toerany ny mpitondra tenin'ny vondrom-paritry ny tafika. |
30 | The ancestral domains of Mindanao lumads are also threatened by large-scale mining activities. | Tandindonin'ny asa fitrandrahana harena ambanin'ny tany midadasika be ny tanindrazan'ireo lumad Mindao. |
31 | The report of the UN official also tackled the displacement of tribal villages in South Cotabato, where an open pit mining project is being proposed. | Nahakasika ny famindràn-toerana ireo foko tao an-tànanan'i Cotabato atsimo izay nandrosoana hevitra ho fitrandrahana harena ankibon'ny tany manao tafo lanitra ny tatitry ny Firenena Mikambana. |

33 | During his visit to the Philippines, Beyani also met with typhoon Haiyan (local name “Yolanda”) survivors and war evacuees in Zamboanga. | Nihaona tamin'ireo olona avotra tamin'ilay tafiotra Haiyan (” Yolanda” no anarany any an-toerana ) sy ireo nafindra toerana noho ny ady tany Zamboanga ihany koa i Beyani nandritra ny fitsidihany tany Filipina. |
34 | He expressed concern about the poor conditions of Haiyan survivors, saying that many of them continue to live in grossly defective temporary shelters almost two years after the world's strongest storm hit the Philippines in November 2013. | Naneho ny ahiahiny momba ny haratsin'ny fepetra iainan'ireo olona avotra tamin'i Haiyan izy, ary niteny fa maro amin'izy ireo no mbola mitohy miaina amin'ny fialofana vonjimaika tena voretra, na dia efa ho taona roa aty aorian'ilay tafiotra mahery indrindra teto an-tany namely an'i Filipina tamin'ny Novambra 2013 aza. |
35 | According to international humanitarian groups, there are as many as 260,000 IDPs in the Philippines who are victims of extreme natural disasters and armed conflicts in various parts of the country. | Araka ny filazan'ireo vondrona iraisam-pirenena mikarakara ny maha-olona dia 260.000 IDPs, na ireo olona nafindra toerana ao anatiny ihany ao Filipina, izay ianjadian'ny loza voajanahary tafahoatra sy niharan'ireo fifanolanana mitàm-piadiana any amin'ny faritra maro ao amin'ny firenena. |
36 | To protect the rights of IDPs, the UN official recommends the passage of a draft law that was vetoed by the the country's president in 2013. | Ho fiarovana ny zon'ny IDPs, dia mitaky ny fankatoavana ilay volavolan-dalàna izay notsipahan'ny Filoham-pirenena an-kitsirano tamin'ny 2013 ilay mpiasan'ny Firenena Mikambana. |
37 | The law would strengthen government agencies' commitment to recognizing and promoting the welfare of IDPs. | Mety hanamafy orina ny andraikitr'ireo sampana ao amin'ny governemanta hanaiky sy hampiroborobo ny fanampiana ny IDPs ilay lalàna. |
