1South Africa: Ticketing woes as 2010 World Cup approachesAfrika Atsimo: Firohotana mividy tapakila nony manakaiky ny Fiadiana izay ho Tompondaka Erantany 2010
2As FIFA World Cup 2010 approaches, FIFA has launched its final ticket drive targeting South African and indeed world football fans as the biggest sporting event lands on the ‘Cape of Good Hope'.
3Initial estimates for sales target at least 500,000 to be churned out through the retail outlets and other easy-to-reach areas. As reported by White Cottage Blog, the first day was characterized by chaos and even one fan lost their life after collapsing while queuing to purchase a ticket:Ny andro voalohany amin'ny fotoana farany natao hivarotana tapakila fidirana amin'ny fiadiana izay ho Tompondaka Erantany amin'ny baolina kitra dia niafara tamin'ny fisavoritahana, miaraka amina filaharam-be teny amin'ireo toeram-pivarotana, iray tamin'ireo “matimaty” amin'ny baolina kitra no namoy aina noho ny fijanonan'ny fo teny ampilaharana, ary tsy nandeha koa ny rindrambaikon'ny FNB.
4The first day of the last phase of ticket sales for the World Cup has resulted in chaos, with queues at sales points, one soccer fan dying of a heart attack in the queue, and the FNB system being off-line.
5The blog also notes that:Nanamarika ihany koa ilay blaogy fa:
6…greedy and opportunistic “speculators” bought tickets, with the aim of reselling them, at a profit one would assume, and have now discovered, even though it was clearly stipulated during the purchase process, that one cannot resell them, as the ID number of the ticket purchasers are printed on the tickets.…ireo “mpanararaotra” tendan-kanina dia nividy ireo tapakila, ary mikasa ny hivarotra azy ireo indray avy eo, mba hahazoan'izy ireo tombony, ary fantatra ankehitriny, na dia efa voalaza mazava nandritra ny fivarotana aza fa, tsy azo atao ny mivarotra azy ireny indray amin'olona hafa, satria ny laharam-pamantarana ID an'ilay olona mpividy dia efa misoratra eo amin'ilay tapakila.
7This means that sellers of tickets cannot even give them away for free!Midika izany fa ireo mpivarotra an'ireo tapakila ireo dia tsy afaka manome azy ireny maimaim-poana amin'olon-kafa !
