20@五岳散人: Obviously, the incident infuriated the public and the whole incident is only going to intensify.@五岳散人: Miharihary fa nahatezitra ny olona ilay trangan-javatra ary vao miha-henjakenjana.
21If the government cannot solve the root problem, it will eventually set itself on fire.Raha tsy afa-mamaha ny olana hatrany amin'ny fakany ny governemanta dia mety handoro ny tenany ihany.
22The government, instead of blocking the public voice, should let the voice go.Tokony hamela ny feom-bahoaka hivoaka ny governemanta fa tsy hanakana izany.
23If censorship takes place, it means the government does wrong things and then they will be faced with queries regarding their governing problems.Raha mandeha ny sivana, midika izany fa manao zavatra tsy mety ny governemanta ary tsy maintsy hiatrika fanontaniana momba ny olana amin'ny fitantanany ny fitondrana.

26“while you enjoy so-called freedom, they enjoy freedom in punishing you.“Raha mianoka ity lazaina ho fahafahana ianao, ry zareo kosa mankafy amin'ny fahalalahana manasazy anao.
27It doesn't matter whether you work in literature, journalism, film or television, you have to go to exhausting lengths to get their permission.Na miasa amin'ny literatiora ianao na fanaovan-gazety na sarimihetsika na fahitalavitra, tsy maintsy misasatra ianao manenjika etsy sy eroa mba ho eny ampela-tananao ny fahazoan-dalana avy amin'izy ireo.
28There are no set rules to abide follow, so you end up more or less breaking their [arbitrary] rules.Tsy misy lalàna mipetraka mialoha mba hankatoavina na arahina, hany ka mety manitsakitsaka ny lalàna napetrak'izy tenany (araka izay tiany ihany koa) ianao.
29Essentially, you have to become one of them, and follow these [arbitrary]rules.Amin'ny ankapobeny, tsy maintsy ataonao izay hahatonga anao ho iray amin'izy ireo, sy manaraka ireo lalàna (napetrak'izy tenany tsirairay avy).
30Therefore, we censor our own work and our peers' work, as we try to understand what the rules are, we are careful and scared. “Hany ka sivaninay ny asanay sy ny asan'ny mitovy asa aminay rehefa miezaka ny mahazo izay votoatin'ny lalàna izahay, mitandrina sy matahotra izahay. “

34We began to compromise and began to deceive ourselves.Nanomboka niady varotra isika ary mandiso fanantenana ny tenantsika ihany.
35We became familiar with those ambiguous boundaries and started self-censorship.Efa lasa nifankazatra amin'ireo fetra hafahafa ireo isika ka naniva-tena avy eo.
36We cannot feel enthusiasm [for our profession] anymore.Tsy mahatsapa fientanentanana amin'ny asantsika intsony isika.
37We have walked too far to remember why we chose this career in the beginning. Why should we support the editorial staff at Southern Weekend?Efa nandeha lavitra tokoa isika hahatsiarovana hoe nahoana moa no nisafidy ity asa ity isika tany am-piandohana tany. nahoana isika no tokony hanohana ny ekipan'ny Faran'ny Herinandron'ny Tatsimo?
