1 | China: Student Interns Or Cheap Labourers? | Sina: Mpianatra Miofana Arak'asa Sa Mpikarama Vary Masaka? |
2 | Since 2004 a labour shortage has begun to emerge in China; in order to tackle the problem the Chinese government has started encouraging privately run institutes to expand the number of vocational schools. | Hatramin'ny 2004 no nanomboka tsikaritra tao China ny tsy fahampian'ny hery afaka mamokatra; mba hiatrehana ilay olana dia nanomboka nandrisika ny fanorenana ivontoerana tantanin'olon-tsotra ny governemanta Sinoa mba hampitomboana ny isan'ireo sekoly manofana hiasa. |
3 | According to Education Bureau statistics, the number of students in secondary vocational schools rose from 12.56 million in 2003 to 21.95 million in 2009. | Araka ny antontan'isan'ny Biraon'ny Fanabeazana, ny isan'ny mpianatra any amin'ireo Lisea manofana hiasa dia niainga avy amin'ny 12,56 tapitrisa tamin'ny 2003 ka tonga amin'ny 21,95 tapitrisa tamin'ny 2009. |
4 | In 2006, the government introduced the so-called “factory in front, school at the back” or school-business cooperation model. | Tamin'ny 2006, nampidirin'ny governemanta ny atao hoe “Orinasa etsy aloha, sekoly ao an-damosina” na lasitra fiaraha-miasan'ny sekoly sy ny orinasa. |
5 | However, the students involved are not protected by the minimum wage and the businesses do not need to pay for their social insurance, even though these students work like ordinary workers. | Na izany aza, ireo mpianatra miditra amin'izany dia tsy voaaron'ny karama farany ambany akory, sady ireo orinasa dia tsy mila akory mandrotsaka fiahiana ara-tsosilay ho azy ireny, na dia miasa toy ny mpiasa tsotra rehetra aza ireo mpianatra. |

9 | Asia Monitor Resource Centre has published an indepth report, ‘Cheap Labour in Essence, Students in Name: Vocational School Interns In China‘, on the systematic exploitation of student interns in China: | Ny Asia Monitor Resource Centre na Foibe Fanaraha-maso ny Loharanon'angovo ao Azia dia namoaka tatitra amin'ny antsipirihany, ‘ Cheap Labour in Essence, Students in Name: Vocational School Interns In China [Eng]', momba ny fanararaotana an-kitsirano ny mpianatra mianatra asa ao Sina |
10 | …what China's overall industries need is non-skilled workers only; the majority of secondary vocational school students, whatever their major studies maybe, finally get sent to the production line, where some students say that their work only takes a day to learn and did not need any professional knowledge. | …ny hany tena ilain'ireo orinasa Sinoa rehetra dia mpiasa tsy manana fahaizana manokana; ; ny ankabeazan'ny mpianatr' ireo lisea manofana hiasa, na inona na inona làlam-piofanana arahan-dry zareo, dia alefa any amin'ny seha-pamokarana daholo amin'ny farany, ka any dia lazain'ireo mpianatra sasany fa iray andro monja no lanin-dry zareo ianarany ny asany no sady tsy ilàna fahaizana manokana momba ilay asa akory. |
11 | Therefore, the student internship, in essence, is just a way to exclude the students from being recognized as having a labour relationship to the enterprise, and thus without the protection of labour law, so that the enterprise can reduce its labour costs. | Vokatr'izay, ny fandraisana ireo mpiasa mianatra asa, ny tena votoatiny, dia fanilihana fotsiny ireo mpianatra tsy ho isan'ny mpiasa manana fifamatorana matotra amin'ny orinasa, ary dia tsy voaaron'ny lalàna mifehy ny asa ry zareo amin'izany, ka dia azon'ny orinasa atao ny mampidina ny fandaniana natokany ho an'ny herim-pamokarany. |
12 | This phenomenon has not only deprived the students of their labour rights, but also affects the overall labour market negatively. | Io zava-misy io dia tsy hoe fotsiny manakana ireo mpianatra tsy hahazo ny zony amin'ny maha-mpiasa azy, fa koa mitondra voka-dratsy ho an'ireo rehetra tonga eo amin'ny tsenan'ny asa. |
13 | Many enterprises have used student workers permanently, some using them for even as high as 70% of their workforce… | Orinasa maro no mampiasa mpianatra mandritra ny fotoana maharitra, ny sasany amin'izy ireny no mampiasa azy ireny hatramin'ny 70%-n'ny herim-pamokarana ilain-dry zareo… |
14 | A number of student workers from Guoyang Military School or Guoyang Secondary Vocational School decided to expose the problem online. | Mpianatra-mpiasa maro avy ao amin'ny Sekoly Miaramilan'ny Guoyang na ny Sekoly Fianarana Asa ao Guoyang no nanapa-kevitra hamaky bantsilana ny olana teto amin'ny aterineto. |
15 | Below is their introduction in Sina Weiblog [zh] back on July 19, 2011: | Ito ambany ito ny fampidirana nataon-dry zareo tao amin'ny Sina Weiblog [zh] tamin'ny 19 Jolay 2011: |
16 | We are graduates from the Guoyang Military School. | Mpianatra nahazo diplaoma tao amin'ny Sekoly Miaramila ao Guoyang izahay. |
17 | The school treated us as profit making tool. | Ampiasain'ny sekoly ho toy ny fitaovana hakàna tombontsoa fotsiny izahay. |
18 | We feel angry and decide to defend our rights and seek for justice. | Mahatsiaro sorena izahay ary manapa-kevitra ny hiaro ny zonay sy hikatsaka ny rariny. |
19 | We want to share our experience, please support us! | Te-hizara izay zavatra iainanay izahay, miangavy mba tohano! |

21 | One of the student workers Xiao Luo told his story to a local newspapers [zh] in July: | Ny iray amin'ireo mpianatra-mpiasa, Xiao Luo, dia nilaza ity tantarany ity tao amin'ny gazety iray ao an-toerana[zh] tamin'ny Jolay: |
22 | “You can't learn anything at school.” | “Tsy afaka hahazo na inona na inona ianao any an-tsekoly.” |
23 | Xiao Luo's major is marketing. | Ny ‘marketing' no taranja ataon'i Xiao Luo. |
24 | He entered the school in July 2007, stay there for five days and was sent to a company in Shenzhen as an intern. | Niditra tao amin'ny sekoly izy tamin'ny Jolay 2007, nijanona tao nandritra ny dimy andro dia avy eo nalefa tany aminà orinasa iray ao Shenzhen ho toy ny mpiana-draharaha. |
25 | He worked there until February 2008, then came back to school for two to three months of course work and sent out to work again. | Niasa tao izy hatramin'ny Febroary 2008, avy eo niverina an-tsekoly hianatra momba ny asa nandritra ny roa na telo volana teo ho eo dia naverina niasa indray. |
26 | “There wasn't any guidance in the workplace, we were just de facto workers.” | “Tsy nisy fitarihan-dàlana na kely aza tany amin'ny toeram-piasana, fa tonga dia mpiasa fotsiny izao izahay, raha ny marina.” |
27 | Xiao Luo said, “Every time when we were back from our work, the school gave us one week holiday, gave us all these school pamphlets and asked us to recruit students back home. | Hoy i Xiao Luo, “Isak'izay tafaverina avy any amin'ny asa izahay, dia omen'ny sekoly herinandro hialàna sasatra, nomena izao karazan'antontan-taratasy rehetra izao ho fampahafantarana ny sekoly ary nangatahana mba handroboka mpianatra maro rehefa tafody any an-tanàna. |
28 | If we failed to recruit enough students, our teachers would be fined. | Raha tsy mahavita misarika mpianatra misimisy izahay, dia mandoa lamandy ny mpampianatra anay. |
29 | On the other hand, we had 600 [yuan] bonus for one successful recruitment. | Etsy ankilany kosa, mandray 600 [yuan] bonus isaky ny mpianatra voajono izahay. |
30 | Actually, the money was not paid by the school, but was taken from our salary.” | Ny marina dia izao, tsy ny sekoly no mandoa ny vola, fa esorina amin'ny karamanay.” |
31 | According to the existing regulations, the internship salary should be given directly to the students, however, in the past three years, all the salaries were deposited to the school's account… In addition, the school had applied for government subsidies for the students and each student should have received 3,000 yuan in two year times. | Araka ny fitsipika mipetraka, ny karaman'ireo mpianatra asa dia tokony haloa mivntana amin'izy ireo, na izany aza anefa, tato anatin'ny roa na telo taona farany, dia nalefa mivantana tany amin'ny kaontin'ny sekoly ny karama… Fanampin'izany, nametraka fangatahana fanampiana avy amin'ny governemanta ny sekoly ho an'ireo mpianatra ka ny mpianatra tsirairay dia tokony handray 3.000 yuan mandritra ny roa taona. |
32 | There were 1,801 students in Xiao Luo's grade, but none of them had received any government subsidies. | Nisy mpianatra 1.801 tao amin'ny andiany misy an'i Xiao Luo, saingy tsy nisy na iray aza tamin-dry zareo naharay ilay fanampiana avy amin'ny governemanta. |
33 | The students also use Weibo to alert local media workers [zh] about their situation: | Nampiasa ny Weibo ihany koa ilay mpianatra mba hanairana ireo mpiasan'ny mpampahalala vaovao ao an-toerana [zh] mikasika ny momba azy ireo: |
34 | To @ChinaNewsWeekly: Hi we are students from Guoyang secondary vocational school. | Ho an'i @ChinaNewsWeekly: Miarahaba, mpianatra avy ao amin'ny Lisea Fianarana asa ao Guoyang izahay. |
35 | The school had violated many regulations, including abusive fee, long period of internship, underage student workers, withholding students' salaries and government subsidies. | Nanitsakitsaka fepetra maro ny sekoly, isan'izany ny saram-pianarana midangana, ny fampanaovana fiofanana arak'asa maharitra loatra any anivon'ny orinasa, fampiasana mpianatra tsy ampy taona, fanagiazana ny karaman'ny ankizy sy ny fanampiana avy amin'ny governemanta. |
36 | We have filed complaints to the Education Bureau and Price Bureau. | Nametraka fitarainana izahay tany amin'ny Birao momba ny Fanabeazana sy ny Sanda. |
37 | But the Education Bureau's attitude is ambivalent and the school has started threatening the students. | Saingy ny fihetsika asehon'ny Birao misahana ny Fanabeazana dia sadasada toa mitanila ka nanomboka nandrahona ny mpianatra ny sekoly ankehitriny. |
38 | We have evidence and can send it to you. | Manana porofo izahay ary azonay alefa ho anareo izany. |
39 | Thank you! | Misaotra anareo! |
40 | Eventually a number of online media outlets had followed up the story, such as Caixin.cn [zh]. | Farany, maro ireo famoaham-baovao eo anivon'ny aterineto no nanaraka akaiky ilay raharaha, toy ny Caixin.cn [zh]. |
41 | The students then further exposed in August 26 [zh] through their Weibo that the school sent child labour to work in sweatshops: | Avy eo ireo mpianatra dia namelabelatra misimisy kokoa, tamin'ny 26 Aogositra[zh] tamin'ny alalan'ny kaonty Weibo an-dry zareo, fa ny sekoly dia mandefa ny ankizy ho herim-pamokarana hiasa any aminà orinasa mpanao akanjo. |
42 | I came from this school. | Avy ao amin'io sekoly io aho. |
43 | I entered the school in 2007 when I was only 15. Like all other workers, my shift is 12 hours a day and I only had two holidays a month. | Tamin'ny 2007 aho no niditra tao fony mbola 15 taona. Toy ireo mpiasa hafa rehetra, ny anjarako dia ora 12 isan'andro ary fitsaharana in-droa isam-bolana ihany. |
44 | At that time, there was an industrial accident involving a child labourer in the industrial campus and the factory returned all the child labourers back to the school. | Tamin'izany fotoana, nisy loza nitranga tao amin'ny toeram-ponenan'ireo mpiasa ao amin'ilay orinasa ary nahakasika ankizy iray niasa tao ka dia naverin'ny orinasa nankany an-tsekoly daholo ireo ankizy rehetra nampiasaina tao. |
45 | The school then changed our birthdays in our documents and sent us to another factory. | Avy eo novàn'ny sekoly ny datin'andro nahaterahanay tany anaty antontan-taratasy ary dia nalefany hiasa tany aminà orinasa iray hafa izahay. |
46 | There were around 100 students under the age of 16, some were just 14! | Nisy teo amin'ny 100 teo ny mpianatra latsaky ny 16 taona, ny sasany vao 14 taona monja! |
47 | On September 8, two days before Teacher's Day, the students release a video, urging educators to show concern for the exploitation of student workers: | Ny 8 Septambra, roa andro nialoha ny Andron'ny Mpampianatra, namoaka lahatsary iray ireo mpianatra, manainga ny mpanabe an-dry zareo hihetsika handray andraikitra mikasika ny fanararaotana ny mpianatra miasa: |
