1 | Jordan: Social Media Combats Deforestation Project | Jordania: Miady amin'ny tetikasa fanapahana hazo ny media sosialy |
2 | This post is part of our special coverage Forest Focus: Amazon and Global Development 2011. | |
3 | The Jordanian government scheduled the building of a new military academy within the Ajloun forest, one of Jordan's few remaining forested areas. | Nanao filazana ny Governemanta Jordaniana mikasika ny fanamboarana sekoly ambonin'ny miaramila ao anatin'ny alan'ny Ajloun, iray amin'ireo faritra Jordaniana vitsy misy ala. |
4 | This project requires 2200 trees to be cut down, including some from endangered species and trees estimated to be 500 years old. | Mila ny fanapahana hazo 2200 ity tetikasa ity, ao anatin'izany ireo karazana hazo efa miha-manjavona sy ireo hazo eritreretina ho efa 500 taona. |
5 | Immediately, several pre-existing and ad hoc coalitions sprung to halt the project. | Miaraka tamin'izay, maro ireo fikambanana efa mijoro sy vao natsangana mba hanakana ity tetikasa ity. |
6 | The Halt Ajloun Deforestation Campaign launched an online petition, presented to the Health & Environment committee of the Lower House of the Jordanian Parliament on January 18th, 2011. | Namoaka fanangonan-tsonia amin'ny aterineto ny Fanentanana amin'ny fanakanana ny fanapahana hazo ao Ajloun, natolotra ny Komitin'ny Fahasalamana & Tontolo iainana ao amin'ny Birao mpanao lalàna ao amin'ny Parlemanta Jordaniana ny 18 Janoary 2011. |
7 | According to the campaign's Twitter account, the outcome was support from the Ministry of the Environment to halt to the project until an environmental impact assessment can be taken, an affirmation of the location within the Ajloun region but to a location with fewer trees to be removed, and a request for publication of further information. | Araka ny kaonty Twitter-n'ity fanentanana ity, dia nahazo ny fanohanan'ny Minisitry ny Tontolo iainana izy ireo amin'ny fanakanana ity tetikasa ity mialohan'ny fanadihadiana mikasika ny mety ho vokany, mangataka ireo mponina ao amin'ny Faritr'i Ajloun ny amin'ny fanohizana ity tetikasa ity fa amin'ny faritra tsy dia be hazo ho tapahana, ary fangatahana hamoahana fampahafantarana bebe kokoa. |
8 | At the meeting, the coalition presented the results of an online petition with 452 signatures. | Tao amin'ny fihaonana, nampiseho ny vokatra azo tamin'ilay fanangonan-tsonia ao amin'ny aterineto izay nahazoana sonia miisa 452 ilay fikambanana. |
9 | The group is still aiming to collect more for further meetings. | Mitsinjo ny hahazo bebe kokoa noho izay ny vondrona ho entina amin'ireo fihaonana hafa. |
10 | The coalition, though, based its entire campaign on blogs, facebook, and Twitter. | Ny fikambanana, na dia izany aza, dia nampifototra manokana ny fanentanany ao anaty bilaogy, facebook, ary Twitter. |
11 | The coalition used social forum 7iber.com to educate the population of how the project was in violation of Jordanian law: | Nampiasa ny sehatra fiadian-kevitra sosialin'ny 7iber.com izy ireo mba hanabeazana ny vahoaka ny amin'ny fandikan'ity tetikasa ity ny lalàna Jordaniana: |
12 | In particular, Article 28 of the Jordanian agricultural law which relates to forestry land and mentions that it is not permissible to delegate, allocate, sell or trade forest land to any person or entity, for any reason…The project would also be in violation of Article 35 of the same law, which mentions that it is prohibited to cut down, destroy or in any way, shape or form harm any forest trees, perennials, or rare and endangered wild plants. | Raha jerena manokana, ny Toko 28 amin'ny lalàna momba ny fambolena Jordaniana izay mifandraika amin'ny tany misy ala dia voalaza fa tsy azo atao ny manome fahefana, fandoavana onitra, mivarotra na manakalo ny tany misy ala amin'ireo olon-tsotra na fikambanana iray, na inona na inona antony…Mety handika ny Toko 35 an'io lalàna io ihany koa ity tetikasa ity, izay manambara fa voarara ny manapaka, manimba na amin'ny fomba hafa, manimba ireo hazon'ala, zava-maniry ela velona, na zava-maniry tsy dia fahita sy efa ho lany tamingana. |
13 | Furthermore, the project is not in compliance with the Jordan Environmental Act No. 25 for the year 2006, Section 13, which states that all organizations, companies, firms or any other entity whose activities may adversely affect the environment in any way, shape or form must prepare an environmental impact assessment study for their project and submit it to the Ministry of Environment to take an appropriate decision thereon. | Ankoatra izay, tsy mifanaraka amin'ny Lalàna No. 25, Fizarana faha -13 tamin'ny taona 2006 mikasika ny Tontolo iainana Jordaniana , izay milaza fa na iza na iza fikambanana, vondrona, orinasa na ireo hafa mitovy amin'izany mety hitondra voka-dratsy eo amin'ny tontolo iainana na inona na inona ny fomba ampiasainy, dia samy tokony hijery ny vokatra mety hateraky ny tetikasany eo amin'ny tontolo iainana ary handefa izany any amin'ny Minisitry ny Tontolo iainana mba handraisany ny fanapaha-kevitra mifandraika amin'izany. |
14 | Naseem Tarawnah chalked up the episode to cultural apathy and governmental mismanagement: | Naseem Tarawnah dia nametraka ity fizarana ity ho anisan'ny tsy firaharahana ara-kolotoraly sy tsy fahaiza-mandrindran'ny Governemanta : |
15 | Unfortunately, our education system and our general society teaches us very little about respecting wildlife, the environment or trees, and many of us can be found cutting down trees, littering around them, and even breaking off their branches if we should be standing anywhere next to them with nothing better to do…. | Indrisy anefa, ny fandaharam-pianarantsika sy ny fiaraha-monina amin'ny ankapobeny dia tsy mampianatra loatra antsika mikasika ny fanajàna ny fiainana an'ala, ny tontolo iainana na ireo hazo, ary maro amintsika no mety tratra manapaka hazo, manao maloto manodidina azy ireny, ary manapaka ny sampany mihitsy aza raha tokony hijoro na aiza na aiza misy azy ireo isika rehefa tsy misy atao…. |
16 | So yes, the cutting down of 2,200 trees in Ajloun - a region in Jordan where many Jordanians travel to have picnics because it is one of the few places left with any actual forestation - is not only unusual, it is pure insanity… | Noho izany dia eny, ny fanapahana ireo hazo miisa 2,200 any Ajloun - faritra any Jordana izay hakan'ireo Jordaniana maro rivotra sy hitsangatsanganana noho izy anisan'ireo toerana vitsy mbola ahitana ala - tsy hafahafa izany, fa hadalàna rano iray fotsiny… |
17 | For the last time I recall Ajloun's forests and trees being threatened was when the current Prime Minister, Samir Rifai, was head of Jordan Dubai Capital, an investment corporation that had plans to uproot 100 trees in the area to put up a hotel. | Ny fotoana farany nahenoako fa tandindonin-doza ny alan'ny Ajloun sy ireo hazo ao dia tamin'ny fotoana izay naha lehiben'ny Jordan Dubai Capital ny Praiminisitra teo aloha, Samir Rifai, orinasa mpanao fahirano izay nihevitra ny hanapaka hazo miisa 100 tany amin'ny faritra iray mba hanamboarana Hotely. |
18 | That spawned a national campaign spearheaded by the Royal Society for the Conservation of Nature, and taking place mostly online. | Nahatonga fanentanana nasionaly notohanan'ny Royal Society ho amin'ny Fiarovana ny Natiora, ary natao betsaka tao amin'ny aterineto. |
19 | The campaign did manage to spare a big enough debate and controversy to put an end to the plans. | Afaka nisoroka ny adihevitra be tao amin'ny aterineto sy adihevitra hampiatoana ny tetikasan'ity orinasa ity ilay fanentanana. |
20 | There is perhaps nothing sound about any of this. | Mety tsy hisy na inona na inona angamba amin'izany. |
21 | If no EIA [Environmental Impact Assessment] was conducted, then someone broke the law. | Raha tsy nisy EIA [Fanadihadiana ny Fiantraikany eo amin'ny Tontolo Iainana] natsangana, dia nisy olona nandika ny lalàna. |
22 | And if it was conducted and the conclusion was “yeah, sure, go ahead and cut down 2,200 trees” then something is terribly fishy. | Ary raha natsangana izany ka tonga tamin'ny valiny hoe “Eny, tsy maninona, mandehana ary tapaho ireo hazo miisa 2,200” dia misy zavatra hafahafa izany. |
23 | Either way, whether the law was followed or not, the outcome is not sound. | Na izany aza, na narahina io lalàna io na tsia, tsy ny toy izao no azo antsoina ho vokatra. |
24 | Mahmoud Lattouf also directed his concern to the government, directly asking Prime Minister Rifai: | Naneho ny ahiahiny mikasika ny Governemanta ihany koa i Mahmoud Lattouf, ary dia nanontany avy hatrany ny Praiminisitra Rifai: |
25 | YE @SamirAlRifai, can we have an explanation regarding the ongoing deforestation in #Ajloun? | YE @SamirAlRifai, afaka mahazo fanazavana ve izahay mikasika ny fanapahan-kazo hatao any #Ajloun? |

27 | Hussein Rugibani joked: | Nivazivazy i Hussein Rugibani : |
28 | Dear Sandhurst, 2200 trees are being cut down to build your academy. | Ry Sandhurst, hazo 2200 no hotapahana hanannganana ny akademia ho anareo. |

30 | Many, such as Bashar Alaeddin, were outraged that an alternative location had not been selected: | Maro, tahaka an'i Bashar Alaeddin, no tezitra amin'ny tsy nifidianana toeran-kafa: |
31 | i dnt get it, i dnt frickin get it!!! out of ALL the area's in #jo to build an academy.. why, for $**@!'s sake did they choose #Ajloun ?!?!? | tsy azoko, tena tsy azoko mihitsy!!! amin'ireo faritra rehetra any #jo hanamboarana sekoly ambony.. maninona, ho an'ny fahasoavan' $**@! no i #Ajloun no nofidian'izy ireo?!?!? |
32 | Hamzeh Nassif agreed: | Niombon-kevitra i Hamzeh Nassif: |
33 | Who's the genius behind idea of cutting down 2000 forest trees to build … an academy? | Iza no manam-pahaizana ao ambadik'ity hevitra fanapahana hazo 2000 ity mba hanamboarana … sekoly ambony? |
34 | Why not build next to the forest? | Fa maninona raha hatsangana eo akaikin'ny ala? |

36 | While Mohammed Mahasneh urged: | Raha namporisika kosa i Mohammed Mahasneh : |
37 | Forests account for only 1% of jordan's land mass. | 1%-n'ny halehiben'ny tanin'i jordana fotsiny no ala. |
38 | Let's protect them #Ajloun #JO | ‘Ndeha harovana izy ireny #Ajloun #JO |
39 | Further developments, and the ultimate fate of the military academy and 2200 trees, will be posted on twitter at #ajloun or #saveajlountrees, as well as on Facebook. | Famelabelarana bebe kokoa, ary ny fiafàran'ny sekoly ambonin'ny miaramila sy ireo hazo miisa 2200, dia hivoaka ao amin'ny twitter ao amin'ny #ajloun na #saveajlountrees, tahaka ny ao amin'ny Facebook. |
