1 | Mauritania: A New Era? | Mauritanie: Vanim-potoana vaovao ve? |
2 | Following a coup d'état a year ago, the election of the coup's leader, General Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz, to the presidency, and the country's first-ever suicide bombing in early August, Mauritania continues to experience massive changes. | Taorian'ny fanonganam-panjakana herintaona lasa izay, sy ny nahavoafidy ny mpitarika io fanonganam-panjakana io Jeneraly Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz ho filoham-pirenena, ary ny voalohany sady farany nipoahana baomba nahafaty tao amin'ny firenena ny fiandohan'ny volana aogositra, dia nisy fiovana be tany Mauritanie. |
3 | On August 12, the Peace Corps suspended their program in Mauritania, citing safety and security concerns. | Ny 12 aogositra lasa teo dia nampitsahatra ny fandaharan'asany tany an-toerana ny Peace Corps, noho ny tsy filaminana sy ny tsy fandriam-pahalemana. |
4 | A Peace Corps volunteer stationed in Mauritania provides her perspective at Becky's Mauritanian Adventures: | Mpilatsaka an-tsitrapo iray an'ny Peace Corps niasa tany Mauritanie no milaza ny heviny ao amin'ny Becky's Mauritanian Adventures: |
5 | As you've noticed, there has been a lot of instability in Mauritania since the beginning of my service last year. | Araka ny efa voamarikareo dia misy tsy filaminana be aty Mauritanie hatramin'ny niandohan'ny asako taty an-toerana tamin'ny taon-dasa. |
6 | As I suspected, they have decided we will not be allowed to return to Mauritania. | Araka ny efa nahiako dia nanapa-kevitra ry zareo tsy hamela anay hiverina any Mauritanie intsony. |
7 | Today was obviously a very sad day for all of us, but I'm trying to remember that this also opens up a whole world of possibilities for the future. | Androany no andro nampalahelo indrindra taminay rehetra, kanefa miezaka aho hahatsiaro fa manokatra tontolo vaovao ho anay ho amin'ny ho avy izao. |
8 | I will be back in America (again) probably within the next week. | Hiverina any Amerika indray aho angamba amin'ny herinandro ambony. |
9 | I've got a lot of ideas about what comes next, but I'm pretty sure it involves more Peace Corps service. | Nahazo hevitra betsaka amin'izay hataoko aho, kanefa azoko antoka fa hampirotsaka lalindalina kokoa ny Peace Corps izany. |
10 | I'm not going to write all the details here, because I don't know them all, but I'll be sure to keep you all updated. | Tsy hosoratako eto daholo ny pitsopitsony rehetra satria tsy fantatro daholo izy rehetra, kanefa ataoko izay haharenesanareo rehetra ny vaovao farany. |
11 | Assessing the situation, news blog Newstime Africa stated [Ed. note: the post has since been deleted]: | Mijery ny zava-misy dia manombana ny Newstime Africa : |
12 | The decision to close the Peace Corps Centre in the country came as a surprise to the nation because the volunteers were really helpful to the people. | Tampoka ho an'ny firenena ihany ny fanapaha-kevitra hanakatona ny Peace Corps satria tena manampy ny mponina ireo mpilatsaka an-tsitrapo ireo. |
13 | The Peace Corps whose headquarters is in Washington is active in 74 countries around the globe. | Ny Peace Corps izay manana ny foibeny any Washington dia miasa amin'ny firenena 74 manerana ny tany. |
14 | Since 1967, the Peace Corps started implementing humanitarian programme in the Islamic Empire of Sand; more especially in the agricultural, health and educational sector and they have largely improved the standard of education in the country even though majority of the people prefer Islamic education to western one. | Hatramin'ny 1967 no nisiany ary taty amin'ny Ampiran'ny Silamo befasika no nanombohany ny prôgramany; niompana indrindra tamin'ny fambolena, ny fahasalamana sy ny fanabeazana no nifotorany ka nametraka ny fanabeazana mitovy lenta ho an'ny rehetra tao amin'ny firenena izy na dia teo aza ny fironan'ny mponina ho amin'ny fanabeazana silamo noho ny fanabeazana tandrefana. |
15 | Their departure have caused a big blow to the government more especially the rural people who have become more accustomed to them due to their generosity. | Miteraka fahabangana lehibe ho an'ny fanjakana ny fialan-dry zareo indrindra ho an'ny mponina any ambanivohitra izay efa nanomboka zatra ny fisiany noho izy ireo malala-tànana. |
16 | President Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz has promised to fight against the extremists in all form deem best for the security of the country. | Nampanantena ny hiady amin'ny ekstremista amin'ny fomba rehetra ny filoha Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz hitandroana ny filaminana. |
17 | The blogger went on to say: | Nilaza ilay mpitoraka bilaogy: |
18 | Meanwhile the formation of the new government which comprised of twenty one ministers is still the talk of the country, four days after their nomination. | Ny fiforonan'ny governemanta vaovao izay ahitana ministra 21 no mbola malaza any an-toerana, 4 andro taorian'ny nanendrena ireo mpikambana ao aminy. |
19 | They are all educated elites with superior diplomas in various Universities and institutions both in the country and outside. | Olona manam-pahaizana daholo izy rehetra, manana mari-pahaizana ambony avy amin'ny anjerimanontolon'i Mauritanie na avy any ivelany. |
20 | More specifically, the talk of the country (or at least the blogosphere) is Naha Bint Hamdi Ould Mouknass, recently appointed by the government to the position of foreign minister; As blogger The Moor Next Door points out: | Ny tena mitana ny laharana voalohany amin'izany resaka izany (ao amin'ny tontolon'ny bilaogy koa) dia i Naha Bint Hamdi Ould Mouknass, notendrena hitazona ny ministeran'ny raharaham-bahiny; araka ny fanondroan'ny bilaogy The Moor Next Door azy: |
21 | Ms. Bint Ould Mouknass is the first woman to hold the post in any Arabic-speaking country; she is joined by five other female appointees in General Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz's government. | Ms. Bint Ould Mouknass no vehivavy voalohany nitazona io toerana io aty amin'ny firenena miteny arabo; narahan'ireo vehivavy 5 hafa izay notendren'ny jeneraly Mohamed Ould Abde Aziz ho ao amin'ny governemanta. |
22 | The blogger goes on to explain the significance of this posting: | Manazava ny dikan'izany ilay mpitoraka bilaogy: |
23 | Her appointment is at once clever and utilitarian: Bint Mouknass's appointment, like that of her predecessor, is an attempt to appeal to outside audiences with a fresh and “soft” face. | Sady am-pisainana no tena ilaina ny fanendrena azy: ny fanendrena an'i Bint Mouknass, tahaka ny olona nodimbiasany, dia fanehoana ny fifandraisana amin'ny any ivelany amin'ny endrika vaovao sady “malefaka”. |
24 | The General is also offering spoils to his supporters (more on this later). | Mampifaly ireo mpanara-dia azy koa ny jeneraly (indrindra tamin'ity farany). |
25 | It also puts a wedge between the new government and the Islamist movement, whose policy it co-opted prior to (and during, mind you) the presidential election (e.g., Israel), it is thought to be politically beneficial to act contra the movement's ideology, thereby clearly distinguishing himself from it, especially in light of his efforts to “fight terrorism,” though this was surely thought up well before last week's suicide bombing (and likely without their possibility in mind). | Mampisy kaly anelanelan'ny governamanta vaovao sy ny mahery fihetsika silamo izy, ny silamo izay manana politika iraisana amin'ny fandraisana anjara (maharitra) amin'ny fifidianana filoham-pirenena (e.g Israely), heverina fa araka ny politika dia hanome lanja ny tsy fanekena izany foto-kevitra izany, noho izany dia manala azy mazava tsara tsy ho ao anatiny, indrindra amin'ny ezaka ataony hiadiana amin'ny “fampihorohoroana”, na dia tsy nieritreritra izany aza talohan'ny tamin'ny herinandro lasa izay nisian'ny baomba nipoaka nahafaty (ary mety tsy neritreretiny). |
