1 | Madagascar: Diaspora and Development. | Madagasikara : Diaspora sy ny Fampandrosoana |
2 | The Malagasy blogosphere was abuzz with discussions regarding the role of the diaspora in the development of Madagascar. | Navitrika dia navitrika ny tontolombolongana Malagasy (blaogasyfera) nijery ny anjara toeran'ny any ampielezana amin'ny fampandrosoana an'i Madagasikara. |
3 | This is a recurrent theme in the Malagasy blogosphere and in African development think-tank in general. | Lohahevitra efa mahazatra ny tontolombolongana Malagasy sy eo amin'ny tahirin-kevitra fampandrosoana afrikana moa izy io amin'ny ankapobeny. |

5 | Back then, the role of the diaspora was intensively discussed and the content of what was said then did not differ much from what is being said now even though the participants have changed. | Efa ela no niadian-kevitra ny anjara asan'ny any ampielezana, tsy niova noho izay efa noresahina taloha ny votoatin-dresaka ankehitriny na dia efa hafa indray aza ireo mpiady hevitra. |
6 | There are always the enthusiastic ones, the cynical ones, the indifferent, the ones who stayed home and refuse to acknowledge any contribution from the Diaspora because of their absence and their supposed ignorance of the conditions and needs of the locals. | Misy hatrany ireo tena mazoto hampandroso, ny manakivy, ny tsy miraharaha, misy Malagasy eto an-tanindrazana no manohitra ankitsirano ny fandraisana anjara birikin'ny Malagasy ampielezana amin'ny fampandrosoana, noho ny tsy nahateto an-tanindrazana azy ireo sy ny fiheverana fa tsy mahalala ny zavamisy sy izay ilain'ny eo an-toerana izy ireo. |
7 | There are also those who blame the diaspora, legitimately or not, for their arrogant approach. | Ary misy ihany koa ireo manakiana, ara-drariny na tsia, ny avy any ampielezana ho te-hisehoseho (hirehareha) fotsiny. |
8 | Many bloggers went to task when it came to concretely contribute to the development of ITC in Madagascar. | Maro ny mpibilaogy (mpamahambolongana) no nifampihaona fa efa tonga ity ny fotoana hampivelarana amin'izay ny sehatry ny haitaon'ny fampahalalam-baovao sy ny serasera ( Technologie de l'information et de la Communication TIC) eto Madagasikara. |
9 | The nonprofit organization Foko-madagascar created a monthly blog club meeting to promote citizen journalism in Madagascar and encourage people to share their stories on the web. | Ny fikambanana Foko-madagascar ohatra izay tsy mitady tombombarotra dia nanangana vondrona mivory isam-bolana mba hampiroboroboana ny famoaham-baovaon'olom-pirenena eto Madagasikara ary mamporisika ny tsirairay hizara ny tantarany eto amin'ny siniben-tserasera (tranonkala na web). |
10 | Other organizations such as namana serasera have had a long outstanding record for helping develop ITC in schools among other socially-driven actions. | Ny fikambanana maro tahaka ny ao amin'ny namana serasera moa dia efa ela no nanana ny lazany tamin'ny alalan'ny fanampiana sy fampivoarana ny TIC any an-tsekoly ankoatra ny asa sosialy hafa. |
11 | Their initiatives are strongly supported by Malagasy bloggers at home and abroad. | Nahazo fanohanana lehibe avy amin'ny bilaogera Malagasy avy eto an-toerana sy avy any andafin'ny riaka aza ny asan'izy ireo. |
12 | Similar type of collaborations between Malagasy continents apart have fueled the growth of Global Voices in Malagasy which has posted 178 posts in 2 ½ months and gained a substantial readership despite the hurdles of being one of the less spoken languages in the world. | Ny fiaraha-miasa eo amin'ny Malagasy avy amin'ny kaontinanta samihafa tahaka izany no nampiroborobo ny Global Voices in Malagasy izay nahavoaka bolongandahatsoratra 178 tao anatin'ny 2 volana sy tapany ary manana mpamaky be dia be na dia esoesoina ho fiteny vitsy mpampiasa indrindra manerantany aza (ny teny malagasy). |
13 | Yet, the question remains, is the Malagasy diaspora doing enough for their homeland ? | Ary efa nitranga ary ny fanontaniana hoe efa manao zavatra araka ny tokony ho izy amin'ny tanindrazany ve ny Malagasy any am-pielezana ? |
14 | Vaomiera's take on the role of the diaspora (Fr): | Noraisin'i Vaomiera ny anjara toeran'ny diaspora (Malagasy any ampielezana) (Fr): |
15 | I believe that the diaspora has a major role to play by adding its expertise ( in different domains ) to the existing companies, supporting the newly formed companies, seeking funds, funding development-based projects, helping local initiatives [..] | Mino aho fa manana anjara be dia be amin'ny fitondrana ny fahaizany (amin'ny sehatra isan-karazany) any amin'ireny orinasa efa mitsangana ireny, na amin'ny fanohanana ireo orinasa vaovao, amin'ny fitadiavana lalam-bola, amin'ny fanomezam-bola ireo tetikasam-pampandrosoana ny avy any ampielezana. |
16 | The strength and the raison d'etre of a diaspora resides in the fact that its sight is turn towards its country of origin. | Azo fehezina toy izao amin'izay fotoana izay ny herin'ny diaspora sy ny antom-pisiany : « fijery » mitodika any an-tanindrazana. |
17 | Thenonrequired relates a telling story of the hurdles that the diaspora sometimes faces when it comes to returning home and contributing (Fr): | Thenonrequired kosa nampahatsiahy tamin'ny alalan'ny tantarany ny olana (esoeso ?) mahazo ny avy any ampielezana matetika rehefa hiverina an-tanindrazana izy sy handray anjara amin'ny fampandrosoana (Fr): |
18 | there was the 1st “back-to-Madagascar” try. | Fikasana voalohany hiverina antanindrazana. |
19 | I sent resumés. | Fandefasana CV. |
20 | Here is the reaction from the CEO of one of my targeted companies” Why does he want to come back to Maldagascar ? | Fanontaniana Tale Jeneralina orinasa iray nokendrena hiasana « Fa inona koa no itadiavany hody eto Madagasikara e ? |
21 | There is no job here for his skill-level. | Tsy misy asa antonona ny fahaizany eto. |
22 | He'd be better off staying where he is…. | Tsy aleony ve mijanona any amin'izay misy azy any ? |
23 | 2nd try ( 4 years later). | Fikasana hiverina antanindrazana fanindroany indray efa-taona taty aoriana. |
24 | Send resumés. | Fandefasana CV. |
25 | Reaction of the recruiter: “He is overqualified. | Ahoana indray hoy ny mpikarakara fandraisana mpiasa vaovao ? |
26 | What does he want ? | « Mahay loatra ity olona ity. |
27 | There is no work for him here…” | Fa inona no tadiaviny e ? Tsy misy asa ho azy aty… » |
28 | Rajiosy wonders why he feels like the obligation to give back is heavier on the African diaspora than on others (Fr): | Manontany tena Rajiosy hoe nahoana no tsapany ho mavesatra amin'ireo Afrikana any ampielezana ny mamaly babena raha tsy tahaka izany kosa ny hafa (Fr): |
29 | “It seems as if the need to “develop” their country of origin is only incumbent upon Africans. | “Tahaka ny hoe ny teratany Afrikana irery no voatery « hampandroso » ny firenena nihaviany. |
30 | […] I would tend to believe that any Malagasy that made the choice to live abroad is first and foremost contributing to the wealth of his place of adoption/residence. | […] Izaho kosa mino fa ny Malagasy rehetra nisafidy ny hiaina ampitan'ny fireneny dia miasa hampiroborobo ny toekaren'ny toerana na firenena nitodiany aloha. |
31 | […] However, I gladly make the argument that he also contributes to the overall wealth of Malagasies everywhere by his actions, his children, his community and his history…. | […] Avy eo no itenenana fa mampiroborobo ny harena ankapoben'ny Malagasy (manerantany) izy amin'ny alalan'ny tenany, na amin'ny alalan'ny zanany, amin'ny alalan'ny fokonolony ary amin'ny alalan'ny tantarany. |
32 | Whether through conversations or direct actions, it seems that the blogosphere is abounding with bloggers with a will to contribute to the development of their homeland or at least, a will to understand the need for giving back. | Izay no dingana diaviko amimpifaliana… Tarataratra fa, na amin'ny alalan'ny resadresaka ifanaovana izany na amin'ny fandraisana an-tanana mivantana mihitsy, dia betsaka ny te-handray anjara amin'ny fampandrosoana ny tanindrazana na farafaharatsiny efa mba misy ny fikasana te-hizara izay efa azo [manao vali-babena], mameno ny tontolom-bolongana (blaogy). |
33 | Harnessing this goodwill was the topic of conversation during a meeting with the founder of the Ubuntu Institute. | Ny handrindrana izay fikasana tsara izay no lohahevitra niarahana nidinika tamin'ny mpamorona ny Ubuntu Institute nandritra ny fivoriana iray izay natrehina. |
34 | To encourage bloggers to continue the conversation online on various topics, a “Best of Malagasy blogs Awards” has been planned for launching in the coming weeks. | Mba hamporisihana ny mpibilaogy (mpamahambolongana) hazoto hiresaka antserasera amin'ny lohahevitra isankarazany dia misy vondrona mikarakara ny hamoaka fifaninanana “Best of Malagasy blogs Awards” na mari-pankasitrahana omena ny bolongana (blaogy) Malagasy tsara (sy mendrika) indrindra izay ho avy afaka herinandro vitsivitsy monja.
