1 | Kabul Taxi Is Blocked on Facebook. | Nakatona Tao Amin'ny Facebook Ny Kabul Taxi. |
2 | Long Live Kabul Taxi! | Ho Ela Velona Ny Kabul Taxi! |
3 | The cover of the Kabul Taxi Facebook page which was removed from Facebook last month. | Sary rakotra ao amin'ny pejy Facebook-n'ny Kabul Taxi izay nofafana tao amin'ny Facebook tamin'ny volana lasa teo. |
4 | “Life is bitter, the future is unknown” reads the message on the back window of a Kabul Taxi, a little yellow Toyota that became the new face of political satire in Afghanistan until it disappeared from Facebook last month. | “Mangidy ny fiainana, ankamantatra ny ho avy” hoy ny vakin'ny hafatra ao amin'ny varavarankely aoriana amin'ny Kabul Taxi, Toyota kely mavomavo nanjary endrika vaovaon'ny esoeso ara-politika ao Afghanistan mandra-pahanjavonany tao amin'ny Facebook tamin'ny volana lasa. |
5 | The message was at once ironic and insightful, speaking both to the short, precarious existence enjoyed by Kabullians' favourite imaginary cab and to Afghanistan's own unknowable destiny, all of which existed in the form of a Facebook page. | Manesoeso sady marani-tsaina ny hafatra, milaza ny fisiany nandritra ny fotoana fohy sy mandalo fotsiny niainan'ny taxi an'eritreritra ankafizin'ny mponin'i Kabul indrindra sy ny anjara tsy fantatra manokan'ny Afghanistan, izay amin'ny endrika pejy Facebook avokoa izany rehetra izany. |
6 | The anonymous author of the page wrote imaginary accounts of his experiences driving a fictional cab that ‘picked up' passengers of high profile - often senior government officials - and converted their political discussions into pithy posts en route to their destinations. | Nanoratra kaonty an'eritrerintra ny zava-niainany mitondra taxi foronin'ny eritreritra fa ‘nitondra' mpandeha olona ambony - matetika manam-pahefana ambony - ary namindra ny fifanakalozan-kevitra ara-politikan'izy ireo ho lahatsoratra fohy teny an-dalana ho any amin'ny toerana aleha ny mpanoratra tsy mitonona anarana. |
7 | Although the discussions never actually took place, they were often uncomfortably realistic and revealing for the men in the back seat. | Na dia tsy nisy akory aza ny fifanakalozan-kevitra raha ny tena marina, zava-misy tsy mampahazo aina sy manao ampamoaka momba ireo lehilahy ao amin'ny seza aoriana izany . |
8 | With social media use growing in Afghanistan at the same time that trust in traditional media, which is often politically compromised, is declining, satirical outlets like Kabul Taxi have emerged as a space for Afghans to express dissatisfaction over the country's current path. | Noho ny fitomboan'ny fampiasana fampitam-baovao sosialy ao Afghanistan, mihena ao anatin'izany ihany koa ny fitokisana ny haino aman-jery nentim-paharazana, izay matetika voatohintohina ara-politika, nipoitra ny sampam-baovao manesoeso tahaka ny Kabul Taxi izay sehatra hanehoan'ny Afgàna ny tsy fahafaliany amin'ny lalan'ny izoran'ny firenena amin'izao fotoana izao . |
9 | Citizens' frustrations with corruption, nepotism, insecurity and unemployment all found a home in the satirical hatchback. | Hita ao amin'ity sehatra manesoeso ity avokoa ny fahasorenan'ny olom-pirenena amin'ny kolikoly, ny kiantranoantrano, ny tsy fandriampahalemana ary ny tsy fananan'asa. |
10 | It made them laugh, and helped them scream. | Nampihomehy azy ireo izany, ary nanampy azy ireo hiantsoantso mafy. |
11 | The page's 13,000 fans became 60,000 in the same month the Washington Post wrote three consecutive stories on the cab. | Niakatra hatramin'ny 600.000 tao anatin'ny volana nanoratan'ny Washington Post tantara telo mifanesy momba ny taxi ny isan'ireo mpankafy ny pejy 13 000 tany am-boalohany. |
12 | But just as Kabul Taxi looked as if it might fly, somebody put the brakes on it. | Saingy raha hita fa hisidina ny Kabul Taxi, dia nisy olona nanakana izany. |
13 | Facebook blocked the page shortly after it picked on President Ghani's National Security Advisor, Hanif Atmar, and his cohort of 27 young advisors, who Kabul Taxi portrayed as the spoiled children of warlords and the Afghan political elite. | Nakaton'ny Facebook ny pejy fotoana fohy taorian'ny nandraisany ny mpanolotsaina ara-piarovam-pirenenan'ny Filoha Ghani, Hanif Atmar, sy ireo andian-tanora mpanolotsaina 27 manaraka azy, izay nasehon'ny Kabul Taxi ho toy ny ankizy ampihataina zanaky ny lehiben'ady sy sangany ara-politika Afgàna. |
14 | Hanif Atmar's letter to the NDS. | Taratasin'i Hanif Atmar ho an'ny NDS. |
15 | Widely shared. | Niparitaka tao amin'ny aterineto. |
16 | The post titled ‘Hanif Atmar's Mantra Group', commented on the high salaries of the young advisors and how they came to be appointed. | Naneho hevitra momba ny karama ambony raisin'ireo tanora mpanolotsaina sy ny fomba nanendrena azy ireo ny lahatsoratra mitondra ny lohateny hoe “Vondrona Mantra an'i Hanif Atmar”. |
17 | Atmar, who served as an intelligence operative for the communist regime during the 1980s, did not appreciate the satire. | Tsy nankasitraka ny esoeso i Atmar, mpitsikilon'ny fitondrana komonista nandritra ny 1980. |
18 | He sent a letter to the National Directorate of Security (NDS) - Afghanistan's national intelligence agency - and asked them to look into the case. | Nandefa taratasy ho an'ny Fitantanam-Piarovana Nasionaly (NDS) - sampam-pitsikilovana nasionaly ao Afghanistan izy - ary nangataka azy ireo mba hijery ny raharaha. |
19 | Atmar's primary complaint - indicated on the right by the author of this post - was that the satire disclosed the identity and duties of National Security Council staff in a demeaning way that put their lives at risk. | Ny fitarainan'i Atmar voalohany - asehon'ny mpanoratra ity lahatsoratra ity io ankavanana io- dia esoeso mamoaka ny fanondroana sy ny andraikitry ny mpiasan'ny Filankevi-piarovana amin'ny fomba manala-baraka mampidi-doza ny fiainan'izy ireo. |
20 | While such an allegation deserves consideration, it seems far more likely Atmar was motivated to write the letter by wounded honour. | Na dia mila fiheverana aza izany filazana izany, toa azo heverina fa noho ny nikitikitihana ny voninahitr'i Atmar no nanosika azy hanoratra ity taratasy ity. |
21 | On August 22 and 23 the NDS summoned the senior editors of a local newspaper for interrogation under suspicion that they were responsible for the page. | Tamin'ny 22 sy 23 Aogositra, nampanantsoin'ny NDS ireo lehiben'ny tonian-dahatsoratra ao amin'ny gazety ao an-toerana iray hohadihadiana noho izy ireo voarohirohy fa tompon'andraikitry ny pejy. |
22 | Although the journalists were released, the incident sparked a substantial backlash on social media. | Na dia efa navotsotra aza ireo mpanao gazety, mbola niteraka fifanjevona tao amin'ny fampitam-baovao sosialy ny zava-nitranga |
23 | By the start of September, Kabul Taxi was out of service. | Nanomboka ny volana Septambra no tsy niasa ny Kabul Taxi |
24 | A Facebook user posted: | Mpiserasera Facebook iray nanoratra hoe: |
25 | Kabul Taxi is closed but it is idiotic to think it will prevent people to think critically or speak up in today's world with many ways for communication. | Kabul Taxi is closed but it is idiotic to think it will prevent people to think critically or speak up in today's world with many ways for communication. |
26 | “The council whose instructor is Atmar” reads the text below an image of Hanif Atmar, National Security Advisor. Posted by Kabul Taxi. | Nakatona ny Kabul Taxi saingy adalàna ny mihevitra fa hanakana ny olona tsy hitsikera na hiloa-bava amin'izao tontolo ankehitriny ahitana fomba maro amin'ny fifandraisana izao izany |
27 | The closure might be seen by some as a worrying sign of Facebook bending to the will of national governments, but the social media network has not stopped several pages with similar names and aims that emerged shortly after Kabul Taxi was closed down. | Mety raisin'ny sasany ho marika mampiahiahy fankatoavan'ny Facebook ny sitrapon'ny governemantam-panjakana ny fanakatonana, saingy tsy nijanona hatreo ny tambajotra media sosialy fa mbola nahitana pejy maromaro manana anarana sy tanjona mitovy amin'izany izay nipoitra fotoana fohy taorian'ny nanakatonana ny Kabul Taxi. |
28 | All the new taxis claim to be driven by the same driver. | Milaza fa entin'ny saofera iray ihany ireo taxi vaovao rehetra. |
29 | Among the more credible heirs to the throne is a page that enjoys over 96,000 likes and claims to be the ‘true new Kabul Taxi'. | Anisan'ny mpandova ny seza-boninahitra azo itokisana ny pejy manana tiako 96 000 sy milaza fa ‘Kabul Taxi vaovao tena izy'. Nampiseho pikantsarin'ny mailaka milaza fa avy ao amin'ny Facebook ny pejy. |
30 | The page displayed a screenshot of an email it says is from Facebook. | Ao amin'ny mailaka, tsy mety mamerina ny pejy ny orinasa, angamba taorian'ny fifandraisana tamin'ny manampahefana ara-piarovanai Afghàna: |
31 | In the email, the company refuses to reinstate the page, presumably after contact with Afghan security officials: | Miarahaba, Nesorina ny pejinao “Kabul Taxi” fa nanitsakitsaka ny Dinam-Pampiasana azy. Ny pejy Facebook dia najoro ho amin'ny fandraharahana na fampiroboroboana fotsiny ihany. |
32 | Another post the page published featured an animation, ‘Atmar and Kabul Taxi' showing the security advisor being teased by a yellow cab - Kabul Taxi. | Ankoatra ny zavatra hafa, ny pejim-pankahalana, fandrahonana, na vetaveta dia voarara. Akatonay ihany koa ny pejy mamelo olona na vondron'olona, na natsangan'olona tsy nahazo alalana ho amin'izany. |
33 | The animation ends with the announcement: ‘I am Kabul Taxi's driver.' | Raha nesorina noho ireo antony eo ambony ireo ny pejinao, dia tsy ho averina intsony. |
34 | Frustrated by a number of pages sharing the same post, Afghan Facebook users are confused as to which taxis are fake and which are not. | Ny fanohizana ny fampiasana ny Facebook amin'ny tsy tokony ho izy dia mety hiafara amin'ny fahaverezan'ny kaontinao tanteraka. Ny Ekipa Facebook |
35 | The gap left by the page in terms of satirical content is possible to fill, but what many are missing is the storm of discussion that accompanied each post on the original Kabul Taxi page. | Mampiseho fanentanana, ‘Atmar sy ny Kabul Taxi' ny lahatsoratra iray hafa navoakan'ny pejy, mampiseho ny mpanolo-tsaina ara-piarovana novazivazian'ny taxi mavomavo iray - Kabul Taxi. Mifarana amin'ny fanambarana hoe: ‘Saofera Kabul Taxi aho' ny fanentanana |
36 | That is unlikely to return, unless its author is willing to risk the consequences of disclosing his identity. | Sorena noho ireo pejy marobe mizara lahatsoratra mitovy ny mpiserasera Facebook mamantatra hoe iza no taxi hosoka ary iza no tsy hosoka.. |
37 | | Azo fenoina ny banga navelan'ny pejy raha resaka votoaty esoeso no jerena, saingy ny mahamanimanina ny maro dia ny adihevitra mafana misy isaky ny lahatsoratra tao amin'ny pejy orizinalin'ny Kabul Taxi. |
38 | Just a month after it disappeared, Afghans are nostalgic for their favourite ride, praying it is out there somewhere, waiting to reclaim its adoring audience in full. | Toa toy ny tsy hiverina intsony izany, raha tsy hoe vonona hizaka ny fiantraikan'ny famoahana ny mombamomba azy ny mpamorona azy (ny pejy). |
39 | | Iray volana monja taorian'ny fanjavonany, manembona ny fiaram-pitaterana ankafiziny ny Afghàna, mivavaka mba any ho any izy, miandry hiaraka amin'ny mpijery maminy tanteraka. |
