1 | GV Face: Everything You Need to Know About Lebanon's Massive “You Stink” Protests | GV Face: Ny Zavatra Ilainao Fantarina Momba Ny Hetsi-panoherana Goavana “Maimbo Ianareo” Ao Libanona |
2 | On August 22 and 23, Beirut witnessed its largest protest in recent history, with 20,000 people gathering to tell the government: “You stink.” | Ny 22 sy 23 Aogositra, niatrika ny hetsi-panoherana goavana indrindra teo amin'ny tantarany tato ho ato i Beirut, olona 20.000 no nifamotoana hiteny tamin'ny governemanta hoe : “Maimbo ianareo.” |
3 | In this episode of GV Face, Global Voices contributor Faten Bushehri talks to Global Voices contributor from Beirut Joey Ayoub, who has been working closely with the organizing committee of You Stink or طلعت ريحتكم. | Ao anatin'ity fizaràn'ny GV Face ity i Faten Bushehri dia niresaka tamin'i Joey Ayoub, mpandray anjara ato amin'ny Global Voices ao Beirut izay niara-niasa akaiky tamin'ny kaomity mpikarakara ny ‘Maimbo ianareo' na طلعت ريحتكم. |
4 | Lebanon's trash crisis started on July 17, when residents shut down the country's largest landfill in Naameh city. | Nanomboka ny 17 Jolay ny olan'ny fako tao Libanona, refa nakaton'ny mponina ilay toerana midadasika indrindra fanariana fako tao an-tànanan'i Naameh. |
5 | That landfill catered to areas of Beirut and Mount Lebanon - almost half of the country's population. | Io toerana fanariana fako io no niantoka ireo faritra tao Beirut sy ny Tendrombohitra Libanona - efa ho ny antsasaky ny mponina eo amin'ny firenena. |
6 | The government's inability to resolve the trash crisis resulted in mountains of garbage piling up on the streets, forcing people to walk around wearing masks. | Niafara tamin'ny fisian'ireo fako nisavovona toy ny tendrombohitra kely ny tsy fahavitàn'ny governemanta mamaha ny olan'ny fako, nanery ireo vahoaka hidina an-dàlambe nanao tampin'orona. |
7 | The You Stink movement kicked off calling for sustainable solutions to the waste problem, and got people on the streets, but the situation quickly escalated beyond trash towards addressing larger problems related to corruption within the current government. | Fitakiana vahaolana maharitra momba ny olan'ny fako no nentina nanomboka ny hetsika' Maimbo Ianareo', ary nitondra ny vahoaka ho eny an'arabe, saingy vetivety foana ny raharaha dia lasa lavitra noho ny resaka fako ka niresahana ireo olana goavana kokoa mifandraika amin'ny kolikoly ao anatin'ny governemanta ankehitriny. |
8 | Lebanon, which already suffers from poor infrastructure and daily electricity outages, has had no president for more than a year. | Libanona izay efa miaritra ny fisianà fotodrafitrasa tsizarizary sy fahatapahan'ny herinaratra isanandro, dia tsy manana filoham-pirenena efa ho taona iray mahery. |
9 | In 2009, its parliament extended its term until 2017, with no elections, citing instability as a reason. | Tamin'ny 2009, nanalava ny fe-potoam-piasàny ho hatramin'ny 2017 ny parlemantany, tsy misy fifidianana, tamin'ny fitanisàna ny korontana ho antony. |
10 | Here's an excerpt from a piece Joey wrote two weeks before the protests kicked off titled, “Can Talking About Trash Drive Political Change in Lebanon?”: | Ity ny tsongo avy amin'ny zavatra nosoratan'i Joey roa herinandro lasa izay, talohan'ny nanombohan'ilay hetsi-panoherana nomena ny anarana hoe, “Afaka Miresaka Ny Fiovàn'ny Politika Momba Ny Fako Ao Libanona Ve?“ |
11 | I've been fortunate enough to experience a Lebanon that isn't tainted by such helplessness. | Nanam-bitana aho niaina tanaty Libanona tsy voaloton'izany tsy fahafahana manoatra izany. |
12 | I've experienced political happiness, a term broadly defined by the anthropologist David Graeber as the experience of being able to make sense of a situation through a realization of common purpose-a sense that you trust the people around you because you're all dedicated to solving the same problem. | Niaina ny hafaliana ara-politika aho, fomba filaza voazavan‘ilay mpikaroka momba ny olombelona amin'ny lafiny rehetra, David Graeber, ho toy ny fiainana amim-pahatsapàna ho afaka manome dikany ny zavatra mitranga, amin'ny fahatratrarana ny tanjona iombonana - ny fahatsapàna fa matoky ny olona manodidina anao ianao satria samy natao hitady vahaolana amin'ny olana iraisana. |
13 | More recently, I experienced it my interactions with طلعت ريحتكم (‘tol3et re7etkom', meaning ‘You Stink'), a grassroots movement created as a response to the government's inability to solve the trash crisis. | Vao haingana izao, niainako izany tamin'ny fiarahako tamin'i طلعت ريحتكم (‘tol3et re7etkom', midika hoe ‘Maimbo Ianao'), hetsi-bahoaka naorina ho setrin'ny tsy fahafahan'ny governemanta mamaha ny olan'ny fako. |
