5 | The city of Lima is home to 8,693,387 residents as of January 2014, according to the Peruvian National Institute of Statistics and Informatics (INEI by its name in Spanish). | Niisa 8.693.387 ny mponina ao amin'ny tanànan'i Lima tamin'ny Janoary 2014 araka ny tatitra nataon'ny Ivon-toerana Nasionaly Peroviana momba ny antontan'isa sy ny Informatika (INEI no filaza azy amin'ny teny Espaniola). |
6 | By late June, the total population in all 43 of the capital's districts is expected to hit 8,755,262, representing 28.4 percent of the country's 30.8 million people. | Heverina fa hahatratra 8.755.262 ny isan'ny mponina amin'ny distrika 43 mandrafitra ny renivohitra amin'ny faran'ny volana Jona, izany hoe ny 28.4 isanjaton'ny mponina 30,8 tapitrisa ao amin'ny firenena. |
7 | With such a populated city, public transportation is a must, but Lima's public transportation system is insufficient and disorganized. | Tsy maintsy ilaina ny fitateram-bahoaka amin'ny tanàna be olona tahaka izany, saingy sady tsy ampy no mikorontana ny rafitry ny fitateram-bahoaka ao Lima. |
8 | The current set-up is a crowded mix of old and modern, served by the city-owned Metropolitano bus rapid transit system, only a few years old, and older, privately run minibuses such as Toyota Coasters and the notoriously aggressive smaller vehicles known as “combis.” | Ny zava-misy ankehitriny dia ny fifangaroan'ireo fitaterana tranainy sy maoderina, ahitana ny rafitra fiara fitateram-bahoaka haingam-pandeha Metropolitano izay an'ny tanàna ihany, niasa vao an-taonany vitsivitsy, sy ireo fiara ‘minibus' an'olon-tsotra toy ny Toyota Coasters sy ny fiara madinidinika mpisetrasetra fantatra amin'ny hoe “combis”. |
9 | The government faces the mighty challenge of reforming transportation. | Miatrika ady lehibe amin'ny filàna fanavaozana ny fitaterana ny governemanta. |
10 | Columbia University urban planning doctorate student Matteo Stiglich explained on his blog Lugares comunes [es] in October 2012: | Nohazavain'i Matteo Stiglich, mpianatra ho manam-pahaizana ambony amin'ny fandrindrana ny tontolo an-drenivohitra ao amin'ny oniversiten'i Kolombia tao amin'ny bilaoginy Lugares comunes [es] tamin'ny Oktobra 2012 fa: |
11 | The reform to the public transportation system embraced by Lima government is by all means necessary and if they manage to carry it out as planned, it might become one of main achievements by the current administration. | Tena ilaina amin'ny lafiny rehetra ny fanavaozana ny rafitry ny fitateram-bahoaka ataon'ny fitondrana any Lima ary raha toa ka araka izay efa niheverana azy ny fandehan'izany fanavaozana izany dia ho isan'ny zava-bita iray goavana nataon'ny fitondrana ankehitriny izany. |
12 | In the first place, the reform runs the risk of becoming more regulation for non-private transportation (public transportation and taxis) without addressing the main generators of traffic jams: private vehicles. | Voalohany, miatrika ny mety hahalasa azy ho fandrindrana misimisy kokoa ny fitaterana iombonana ( fiara fitateram-bahoaka sy ny fiara karetsaka) io fanavaozana io, tsy voakasik'izany ireo miteraka ny fitohanan'ny fifamoivoizana : fiaran'olon-tsotra. |
13 | […] The transportation reform, as much in discourse as in practice, doesn't consider the fact that private traffic might be the main cause per capita of traffic jams. | […] Ny fanavaozana ny fitaterana, na amin'ny lahateny na amin'ny fampiharana, dia tsy mijery akory hoe ny fiaran'olon-tsotra no mety ho tena antony mahatonga ny fitohanan'ny fifamoivoizana. |
14 | If less people used their cars and used public transportation instead (including shared buses), average travel time would be reduced for everybody. | Raha ohatra ka vitsy ny olona mampiasa ny fiarany ka mandeha amin'ny fiara iombonana (isan'izany ny fiarabe fitateram-bahoaka) dia mety hihena ny salan'ny fotoana lany eny an-dàlana ho an'ny olon-drehetra. |
15 | The blog Munay described what a ride is like [es] in one of Lima's coasters: | Faritan'ny bilaogy Munay hoe toy ny ahoana izany fandehanana amin'ny coaster iray ao Lima izany: |
16 | We find ourselves in a reduced space and the only situation we want to control is finding a seat. | Faritra tery no misy anay ary ny zavatra tokana hany azonay fehezina dia ny fitadiavana seza. |
17 | We keep an eye out for any movement, and everybody leaps after an unexpected vacancy that unfortunately won't be for you if you are not paying attention. | Malina amin'ny fihetsika rehetra izahay ary ny rehetra dia mifandrombaka maka izay seza tsy misy mpipetraka tampoka eo amin'ny fotoana tsy ampoizina izay indrisy fa tsy ho anao raha tsy mitandrina ianao. |
18 | It's a constant struggle. | Tolona tsy miova izany. |
19 | In a survey conducted [es] between April 4 and 8, 2014, 47 percent of Lima residents [es] consider public transportation as awful and another 36 percent think of it as just fair. | Tamin'ny fanadihadiana natao [es] teo anelanelan'ny 4 sy ny 8 Aprily 2014, ny 47 isanjaton'ny mponin'i Lima[es] no mihevitra ny fitateram-bahoaka ho ratsy ary ny 36 isanjato hafa kosa mihevitra izany ho ara-drariny. |
20 | Seventy-five percent think the city government hasn't done anything [es] to improve service. | Ny dimy ambin'ny fitopolo isanjato dia mihevitra fa tsy nanao na inona na inona ho fanatsarana ny tolotra ny mpitantana ny tanàna. |
21 | On Twitter, opinions vary: | Miovaova ny hevitra ao amin'ny Twitter : |
22 | To the next combi collector that tells me, “So, you coming?”, I'm going to pull out his tongue with rusty pliers. | Ho an'izay resevera-nà ‘combi' manaraka eo ka miteny amiko hoe ” Ahoana, handeha ianao ?”, hongotako amin'ny tandramokotra arafesina ny lelany. |
23 | Combis are usually manned by two people: the driver and the collector, who takes passengers' payment and announces the route by shouting it out loud. | Olona roa no miasa amin'ny combi amin'ny ankapobeny : ny mpamily ary ny mpanampy ( resevera) izay mandray ny saran-dàlan'ny mpandeha sy miantsoantso mafy ny làlana alehan'ilay fiara. |
24 | Other tweets mentioned the high rate of car accidents caused by these vehicles: | Misy bitsika hafa milaza ny taha ambonin'ny lozam-pifamoivoizana aterak'ireny fiara ireny : |
25 | At age 40, it's some miracle that I'm still alive with so many killer combis on the go. :/ | Fahagagàna raha mbola velona feno 40 taona aho amin'ireto combis mpamono olona amin'izay aleha ireto. :/ |
26 | A public transportation combi was responsible for a new car accident in Metropolitan Lima roads. | Combi iray, fitateram-bahoaka no tompon'antoka tamin'ny lozam-pifamoivoizana vaovao iray tamin'ny làlan'ny Metropolitan-n'i Lima. |
27 | A combi owing S/.38.000 (US$13,600) in fines crashed with a truck, with the result of 13 injured passengers. | Combi iray mbola tokony handoa S/.38.000 (13,600 dolara Amerikana) aminà onitra no nifandona taminà fiara vaventy ka naharatràna mpandeha 13. |
28 | Well-known journalist Beto Ortiz tweeted: | Nibitsika ilay mpanao gazety fanta-daza Beto Ortiz : |
29 | In Lima, it's the same to use a combi or drive your own car. | Mitovy ny fandehanana amin'ny combi sy ny fiaran'ny tena any Lima. |
30 | You'll be stuck un traffic anyway. | Mety ho voatànan'ny fitohananan'ny fifamoivoizana na aiza na aiza ianao. |
31 | You travel 10 km/h. | 10km isan'ora ny hafainganam-pandehanao. |
32 | 50 minutes from J.Prado to Larcomar! | 50 minitra miala ao J Prado mankany Larcomar ! |
33 | But maybe it's cartoonist Andrés Edery [es] who best depicted the situation: | Fa angamba ilay mpanao sariitatra Andrés Edery [es] no tena mahalaza tsara ilay toe-draharaha : |
34 | - Where you see a “reckless race to get a passenger”, we see “free competition”. | - Any amin'ny toerana ahitànao ” fihazakazahana tsy ampiheverana handray mpandeha iray” ianao, mahita ” fifaninanana malalaka” isika. |
35 | - These are the rules of the market. | - Izany no lalànan'ny tsena. |
