1 | Sri Lanka: Abuse, Disbelief And Bitterness Persist | Sri Lanka : Mbola mifikitra ny fahakiviana, ny fangidiam-panahy ary ny fanosihosena |
2 | The Sri Lankan government's civil war for over 25 years against the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) ended a few days ago when the LTTE leader Velupillai Prabhakaran was killed. | Andro vitsivitsy lasa izay no nifarana niaraka tamin'ny famonoana ny mpitarika ny LTTE Velupillai Prabhakaran ny ady an-trano naharitra 25 taona nifanaovan'ny governemanta Srilankey tamin'ny Tigra Mpanafaka an'i Tamoul Eelam (LTTE). |
3 | The question remains that “has the dream of many Tamils of having a separate state free from discrimination died with him?” | Mampanontany tena ihany na dia izany aza hoe “Ho faty miaraka aminy ihany koa ve ny nofinofin'ny tamouls hanana firenena manokana tsy misy fanavakavahana?” |
4 | Although Prabhakaran is deemed as a mass murderer and terrorist, many still revere him as a fighter of their cause and some are still in denial mode that he really has been killed. | Na dia ambara ho mpamono vahoaka sy mpampihorohoro aza manko i Prabhakaran dia maro kosa ny manandratra azy mpiady ho amin'ny fahafahany ary ny sasany aza moa dia mandà ny fahafatesany hatrany. |
5 | Many theories emerged making Prabhakaran's death controversial and some also resorted to Photoshop to prove that he is still alive. | Maro ny petra-kevitra miposaka manao izay hampisalasalàna ny fahafatesan'i Prabhakaran ary ny sasany aza dia manambotra sary amin'ny Photoshop mihitsy hanaoporofoana fa mbola velona izy. |
6 | The polarized Sri Lankan Blogosphere is buzzing with a lot of analysis and counter analysis on the developments. | Heniky ny fanadihadiana sy ny mifanohitra amin'ny fanadihadian'ny hafa ny tontolom-bolongana Srilankey misara-kevitra. |
7 | Although the Sri Lankan government has been successful in finishing off the LTTE insurgency, its methods were controversial and much criticized. | Na dia nahomby aza ny governemanta Srilankey tamin'ny famaranana ny ady nifanaovana tamin'ny fiokoan'ny LTTE, dia mampiady hevitra sy nahazoana tsikera maro kosa ny fomba nanaovany azy. |
8 | In Mutiny quotes a Time article which lists the Rajapakse doctrine of counterinsurgency. | In Mutiny ohatra namoaka lahatsoratra avy amin'ny Time izay mandahatra ny paikan'i Rajapakse namaliana ny fiokoana. |
9 | Serendipity is critical of the Western media for not portraying the feeling of many Sri Lankans who were relieved and have celebrated the news of the end of the bitter war. | Serendipity indray nitsikeera ny fampahalalam-baovao tandrefana tsy nampiseho ny fahafalian'ny Srilankey maro sy nankalaza fandrenesana ny vaovaon'ny fiafaran'ity ady mangidy ity. |
10 | The blogger accused the Western media for using sensationalism in their writings and urged the Sri Lankan blogosphere to help balance the biases by raising their voices. | Ampangain'ny mpamaham-bolongana ny fampahalalam-baovao tandrefana nanasongadina izay manaitaitra fotsiny amin'izay soratany ka manentana ny tontolom-bolongana Srilankey izy hampifandanja kokoa amin'ny alalan'ny feony izao fitongilanana izao. |
11 | Reacting on the news that the EU wants to organize a tribunal to investigate civilian deaths by Sri Lankan Army and the LTTE, The Whackster's Lair challenged the world to come to Sri Lanka and see with their own eyes whether the alleged war crimes happened for real. | Hamaliana ny vaovao andrenesana ny vondrona Eoropeana mitady ny hananganana tribonaly hanadihady ny fahafatesan'olo-tsotra nataon'ny miaramila Srilankey sy ny LTTE moa dia nihantsy izao tontolo izao ny The Whackster's Lair ho avy any Sri Lanka hahita imaso mivantana izany lazaina fa famonoan'olona izany. |
12 | However sporadic incidents of kidnapping Tamil activists are still being reported in the media. | Na izany aza dia misy ihany tsitaitaikana mpitolona Tamouls nalaina an-keriny taterin'ny haino aman-jery. |
13 | Criticizing the ban of foreign journalists and aid workers, renowned journalist John Pilger wrote that the sufferings of the Tamils are being unnoticed by the world and distant Tamil voices are not being heard. | Ho fitsikerana ny fandrarana ny mpanao gazety vahiny sy mpamonjy voina dia nosoratan'ilay mpanao gazety malaza John Pilger fa tsy voarain'izao tontolo izao intsony ny fitarainan'ny Tamouls ary re mihitsy ny feon'ireo Tamouls an-tany lavitra. |
14 | In recent times we have seen that the pro Tamil voices have become feeble due to intimidation and fear. | Teo ho eo moa dia tsikaritray fa nihalefy ny feon'ny mpanohana ny Tamouls noho ny fampitahorana sy ny tahotra. |
15 | Sujai at Desicritics is not a supporter of LTTE but supports Sri Lankan Tamils' desire and aspiration to establish a separate Tamil state on that island and asks: | Sujai ao amin'ny Desicritics dia tsy mpanohana ny LTTE fa manohana ny hetahetan'ny Tamoul SriLankey hanangana firenena manokana ao amin'ny nosy ary manontany hoe: |
16 | “Can we ignore the history of how Tamils were targeted, discriminated, and marginalized in Sri Lanka? | Odiantsika tsy hita ve ny tantaran'ny nanondrotondroana, ny nanavakavahana, ary nanilikilihana ny Tamouls teto Sri Lanka? |
17 | Does Sri Lanka have a prior record which suggests they are going welcome Tamils participation in that country? | Moa ve hataon'i Sri Lanka ho laharam-pahamehana ny fandraisana anjaran'ny Tamouls eo amin'ny sehatry ny firenena? |
18 | Can a Tamil become President of Sri Lanka the way a Sikh can become Prime Minister of India?” | Moa mety mba ho filohan'i Sri Lanka ve ny Tamoul iray tahaka ny fisiana Sikh azo atao praiminisitr'i India? |

20 | Musings from Toronto questions the Diaspora support for the LTTE: | Musings from Toronto no manontany ny fahohanan'ny Diaspora ny LTTE: |
21 | I don't understand why they support the LTTE. [..] | Tsy azoko mihitsy ny antony hahohanany ny LTTE. [..] |
22 | I don't understand how they claim the LTTE is any better than the government of Sri Lanka. | Tsy azoko ny itabatabany fa aleony ny LTTE toy izay ny governemantan'i Sri Lanka. |
23 | But it would be wrong to think that all Tamils are supporting the LTTE. | Saingy diso kosa ny eritreritra fa manohana ny LTTE avokoa ny Tamouls rehetra. |
24 | Amardeep at Sepia Mutiny posts a video of Tamil Canadian journalist Ignatius Sellah talking on CBC which tells a different view, that the Tamil protests in Canada were instigated by the LTTE arm in Canada. | Amardeep ao amin'ny Sepia Mutiny ohatra namoaka lahatsarin'ny mpanao gazety Tamoul Kanadiana Ignatius Sellah miresaka ny fomba fijeriny hafa ao amin'ny CBC, ilazany fa nahetsiketsiky ny sampan'ny LTTE any Kanadà ity hetsikesika fanoherana ataon'ny Tamoul any Kanadà ity. |
25 | Terms like “Genocide” have been indiscriminately used by LTTE which has overshadowed the real problems. | Ampiasain'ny LTTE tafahoatra ny teny tahaka ny “Genocide” (fandripaham-bahoaka) izay lasa manakona ny tena olana. |
26 | Nilanjana at Sepia Mutiny quotes the human rights abuses of both the Sri Lankan Government and the LTTE and writes: | Nilanjana ao amin'ny Sepia Mutiny no mitsonga ny fanosihosena ny zon'olombelona ataon'ny roa tonta dia ny Governemanta SriLankey sy ny LTTE ka nanoratra hoe: |
27 | Terms like “genocide” (and “terrorism,” for that matter) raise our blood pressure and focus our attention on those who have committed violence, but they don't even begin to address how minorities can be more effectively represented and fairly treated in the future. Indrajit Samarajiva at Indi.ca tells the Sri Lankan Diaspora: | Mampiakatra ny tosi-dràntsika sy mampifantoka antsika hitodika any amin'izay manao herisetra ny fandrenesana ny teny hoe “genocide” (fandripaham-bahoaka) (sy ny teny hoe “fampihorohoroana” ihany koa dieny eto isika), nefa dia tsy mbola nilaza na inona na inona akory ry zareo ny amin'ny fitantanana tsy miangatra sy fampakaran-toerana ny vitsy an'isa amin'ny ho avy. |
28 | It is not enough to lobby the UN or the ‘international community' or the consciences of the fashionable thinkers of the global elite. [..] | |
29 | To change Sri Lanka you need to reach the kid in the IDP camp, you need to work with the police office in Hambantota. | |
30 | You need to chat with the Muslims in Galle and the tea pluckers in Nuwara Eliya. [..] | Indrajit Samarajiva ao amin'ny Indi.ca indray miteny amin'ny Sri Lankey ampielezana: |
31 | Sri Lanka still needs its bright children to come home. | Mila ny zanany mamirapiratra hankany an-taindrazana i Sri Lanka. |
32 | Gunaratne at Groundviews is amazed at “the mobilization of young people from the Tamil Diaspora around the world to organize protests against the Sri Lankan government's purported human rights violations.” But the question is how to end the cycle of hatred? | Gaga amin'ny “fihetsiketsehan'ny tanora avy amin'ny diaspora Tamoul manerantany hanoherana ny fanitsakitsahana ny zon'olombelona ataon'ny governemanta Srilankey” i Gunaratne ao amin'ny Groundviews nefa moa ve ny laharam-pahamehana tsy ny hamaranana hatreo ny ranomodin'ny fankahalana? |
33 | Maybe once the conflict is over, they will come back to Sri Lanka to rebuild the country together. | Angamba hody hiara-hanangana an'i Sri Lanka indray ry zareo amin'izao fahataperan'ny ady izao. |
34 | However, there is long way to go for reconciliation between the two communities as so much hatred has manifested, especially amongst the Diaspora overseas. | Na izany aza dia mbola lavitra ny lalana mankamin'ny fampihavanana ny foko roa tonta fa efa mibaribary ny fahnkahalana, indrindra moa fa eo amin'ireo izay any am-pielezana. |
35 | Appu's advice to the Tamils is to try something different: | Ny toro-hevitr'i Appu's amin'ny Tamoul dia dia ny mba manandrana manao zavatra hafa indray: |
36 | Invest in your people, your lands, your future. | Mampiasà vola any amin'ny vahoakanao, any amin'ny taninao, amin'ny ho avinao. |
37 | You work wonders for your employers in other parts of the World, now do it for yourselves. | Mahafaly ny mpampiasa any amin'ny faritra hafa amin'izao tontolo izao ny asanay, ankehitriny miasà ho an'ny tenanao. |
38 | To do that however, you need to walk away from the bitterness that you are entitled to feel. | Raha hanao izany kosa anefa dia mila miala amin'ny fangidiam-panahy izay asandratrao ho tsapanao ianao. |
39 | But how can the bitterness and disbelief be removed when there are still reports of human rights abuses? | Saingy ahoana moa ny hanifihana ny fangidiam-panahy sy ny fahakiviana raha mbola mitohy ihany ny tatitra isian'ny fanitsakitsahana ny zon'olombelona? |
40 | According to the latest reports, women were raped and men “disappeared” from the Sri Lankan refugee camps and the Red Cross has been banned from the entering the camps. | Araka ny tatitra farany dia atao an-keriny ny vehivavy ary “nanjavona”ny lehilahy any amin'ny tobin'ny mpifindra monina Srilankey ary voarara tsy mahazo miditra any ny vokovoko mena. |
41 | Reports of revenge on Tamils have begun to appear. | Efa manombokamipoitra ihany koa ny valifatin'ny Tamouls. |
42 | So sense of disbelief and worry is still present in many Sri Lankan Tamils. The future of many refugees in the IDPs is uncertain. | Noho izany mbola mitoetra amin'ireo Tamouls ampielezana ihany ny fahakiviana sy ny tahotra. mampanahy dia mampanahy tokoa ny ho avin'ireo mpialokaloka any amin'ny toby. |
43 | The world needs to be aware of the situation and take measures to stop these human rights violations to pave the way for some kind of reconciliation. | Aoka ho fantatr'izao tontolo izao ny toe-draharaha handraisany fanapahan-kevitra hampitsaharana ny fanitsakitsahana ny zon'olombelona ary izorana kosa amin'ny karazana fampihavanana. |
