1 | Dominican Republic: Energy Crisis Continues | Repoblika Dominikana: Mitohy ny olana herinaratra |
2 | With less than three months on the job as the Vice-President for the Dominican Corporation of State Electric Companies [es] (CDEEE for its initials in Spanish), businessman Celso Marranzini has seen the need to look for help outside of the country to resolve the serious energy problem, which has recently reached critical levels. | Vao tsy ampy 3 volana no nandraisany ny asa amin'ny maha filoha lefitry ny CDEEE (Dominican Corporation of State Electric Companies [es]) dia tsy maintsy mitady fanampiana any ivelan'ny fireneny i Celso Marranzini hamahana ny olana herinaratra any an-toerana, izay mihasarotra hatrany. |
3 | A delegation headed by Marranzini traveled to South Korea to seek technical assistance to help solve the energy problem [es], in which half of the electrical plants have been out of service under the argument that they are under maintenance. | Nisy delegasiona notarihan'i Marranzini nankany Korea Atsimo hitady fanampiana ara-teknika hamahana ny olana herinaratra any an-toerana izay ny antsasaky ny masinina famokarana angovo elektrika no simba noho ny tsy fisian'ny fikarakarana. |
4 | However, this has resulted in an energy deficit reaching 600 Megawatts, in which Dominicans have been under 9-10 hours of power outages per day. | Niteraka tsy fahampian'ny herinaratra hatramin'ny 600 Megawatts izany ka misy ny fijanonan'ny famatsiana 9 hatramin'ny 10 ora isan'andro ho an'ny vahoaka dominikana. |
5 | As this is an ongoing problem that seems to be worsening to the current critical levels, the population has been showing its discontent, after holding onto the hope that Marranzini could solve the problem. | Satria moa olana sedraina izy ity dia tahaka ny hoe miharatsy ny toe- draharaha, maneho ny tsy fahafaliany ny mponina, satria diso fanantenana fa hovoavahan'i Marranzini ny olana. |
6 | These power outages are causing frustration and criticism of Marranzini's leadership. | Niteraka tahotra sy fanankianana ho an'ny mpanara-dia azy ny fahatapahan'ny famatsiana herinaratra. |
7 | Twitter users, Elvis Medina and Ana Peguero provide some thoughts on the situation: | Ireo mpampiasa twitter, Elvis Medina sy Ana Peguero no milaza ny heviny mikasika ny raharaha: |
8 | (The neighborhood) Arroyo Hondo had energy 24 hours a day until Marranzini arrived, now we have blackouts, and the most expensive bills. | @anapeguero: Arroyo Hondo tenía circuito 24 horas hasta que llegó Marranzini, ahora nos dan apagones por un tubo… y la factura más cara to los días!!! |
9 | Hopefully for this Christmas, Mr. Marranzini becomes Santa Claus and gives us a little more ENERGY… Let's pray for that. | (Ny mpifanolobodirindrina) Arroyo Hondo dia nahazo herinaratra 24 ora talohan'ny nahatongavan'i Marranzini, ankehitriny anefa misy tsy fahampiana izany kanefa mihalafo hatrany ny vidiny. |
10 | In addition, street protests against the power outages have taken place in places like the province of Barahona and the National District. | @elvismedina: Espero q para estas navidades, el sr. Marranzini, se convierta en Santa Claus y nos regale un poquito mas de ENERGIA…Oremos por eso.. |
11 | The most recent incident took place in the city of Santiago, where one person died and many others were arrested [es]. | Enga anie amin'ity noely ity mba ho lasa Ingahibe noely i Marranzini ka hitondra herinaratra fanampiny kely… Hivavaka ho amin'izany isika. |
12 | As a previous critic of the CDEEE before being named to head the entity, many hoped that Marranzini could solve this problem that has been going on for more than 40 years, and which has become an obstacle in the country's development. | Fanampin'izany dia mpanao fihetsiketsehana maro no midina eny an-dalam-be manohitra ny fahatapahan'ny herinaratra izay efa mahazo ny faritanin'i Barohana sy National District. Olona iray no maty ary olona maro hafa no nosamborina tany Santiago renivohitra[es]. |
13 | | Notsikeraina fatratra ny CDEEE talohan'ny nametrahana n'i Marranzini hitantana azy, maro ireo nanantena fa afaka hamaha ny olana mianjady amin'ny firenena efa ho 40 taona izao izy, olana izay zary lasa sakana ho an'ny fampandrosoana ny firenena. |
14 | While Marranzini has concentrated on improving the CDEEE's finances and the reduction of payroll, he has not been able to reduce the blackouts. | Raha nifantoka tamin'ny fanatsarana ny fitantanam-bola sy ny fampihenana ny mpiasa i Marranzini dia tsy afaka nampihena ny fahatapahan-jiro kosa izy. |
15 | The outages have reached the point that they have worsened since he took office in August 2009, maintaining the electrical system in such a delicate state, that some have even called for the return of Radhames Segura, his predecessor. | Lasa mihalava izany fahatapahana izany ary vao maika mitombo aza hatramin'ny volana aogositra 2009, mamela ny toe-java-misy amin'izao toerany izao dia mahatonga ny maro hihevitra fa niverina indray i Radhames Segura, ilay olona nosoloiny. |
16 | Cartoon by Harold Priego which depicts the call for Segura to return to his previous post, which is preferable to the current power outage situation. | Kisarisarin'i Harold Priego izay mampahatsiahy an'i Segira hijery ny lahatsorany taloha, izay azo noleferina kokoa ny fahatapahan- jiro. Kisarisary nahazo alalana ny famoahana azy. |

18 | The solution goes beyond changing one public official for another. | Misy ny sasany manafangaro ity raharaha ity amin'ny tombotsoany manokana sy ho an'ny tombontsoa politika. |
19 | | Ho an'ny hafa kosa, tahaka an'i Dr. José Antonio Vanderhorst, manam-pahaizana manokana momba ny herinaratra, ny tena fototry ny olana dia ny lamina napetraky ny fanjakana momba ny herinaratra mihitsy. |
20 | There are some that attribute the situation to personal interests and politics. | Hoy izy manoratra ao amin'ny bilaogy Grupo Millenium Hisponiola[es]: … por sí misma la despolitización es insuficiente. |
21 | | Es absolutamente necesario cambiar el sistema (eléctrico) que sigue muy influenciado por el paradigma de la CDE y de la capitalización que están orientadas a la oferta, cuando los problemas más complejos están en los aspectos sociales, organizacionales y culturales, que se corresponden al consumo que está en el lado de demanda. |
22 | For others, like Dr. José Antonio Vanderhorst, consultant on electricity, the core issue is the structure of the national electrical system. | Es urgente dar un giro para desarrollar e integrar los recursos de la demanda. La urgencia está en que la decisión de cambio de ley necesita ser introducido en el acuerdo con el FMI. |
23 | He writes on the group blog Grupo Millenium Hispaniola [es]: | De lo contrario, seguiremos sin resolver la crisis sistémica del sector eléctrico. |
24 | … depoliticization itself is insufficient. | … Tsy ampy ny fanalana ny resaka politika. |
25 | It is absolutely necessary to change the (electrical) system which continues to be greatly influenced by the CDE(EE) paradigm and the capitalization that is oriented to the supply, when the more complex problems are in the social, organizational, and cultural aspects, which corresponds to the consumption and demand. | Tena ilaina ny fanovana ny lamina momba ny herinaratra izay idiran'ny CDEEE lalina loatra sy ny vola atokana ho an'ny famatsiana herinaratra, raha ny tena olana goavana dia ny ara-tsosialy, ny koltoraly sy ny fandaminana, izay mifandraika amin'ny tolotra sy ny tinady. |
26 | It is important to make a shift towards the development and integration of the resources in demand. | Zava-dehibe ny fisian'ny fanovana manoloana ny fivoarana sy ny fampidirana ny fototry ny tinady. |
27 | The urgency is in the decision to change the law needs to be introduced in the agreement with the FMI (International Monetary Fund). | Ny tena maika dia ny fanapahan-kevitra hanova ny lalàna mba hampidirana ny resaka angovo ao anatin'ny volan'ny FMI (Mpamatsy vola iraisam-pirenena). |
28 | On the other hand, we still are left without solving the systemic crisis in the electrical sector. Translation by Eduardo Ávila | Ankilany dia mbola mijanona ho tsy manana vahaolana aloha isika manoloana ny olana mahakasika ny herinaratra. |
