Niteraka fifandonana teo amin'ireo mpifindra monina sy ireo teratany alzeriana ao an-drenivohitr'i Alzeria ny fidiran'ireo mpiavy sinoa. Zato teo ho eo ny fitambaran'ny teratany sy ny mpifindra monina nifanandrina tamin'izany, ary nampiasa antsy sy fonjam-by ry zareo. Nisarika resa-be mikasika ny fampiasan'ny sinoa vola [1] ao amin'ity firenena ity izany fifandonana izany, ka tsy latsa-danja amin'ny ady hevitra ireo mpitoraka blaogy.
Hoy indrindra i Talking Under the Random Dribble [2], izay nilaza tamin'ny lohateniny fa mahazo mihoatra noho ny nangatahany tamin'ireo sinoa ny alzeriana.
A fight has broken out between Chinese and Algerians in Algeria…Algerians complain the new migrants drink alcohol and don’t respect Islam (”They drink alcohol and do not respect our religion. They must leave.“)…
Fifandonana ao Chinatown, hoy i Kal ao amin'ny The Moor Next Door [5]. Hoy indrindra izy mampahatsiaro ny tantaran'ny fifandraisana nivelatra teo amin'ireto firenana roa ireto :
Algeria and China have quite fine relations. To say “Algeria and China” is to say the governments of the Democratic and Popular Republic of Algeria and the People’s Republic of China enjoy long and friendly relations The PRC was the first country to recognize independent Algeria. Quite a few Algerian military officers, engineers and others were educated in the PRC. Chinese television once broadcast programs on the Algerian “people’s revolution”. Algerian communists counted many, many Maoists in their ranks in the 1960’s and 1970’s, and the Chinese Embassy is historically one of the more important in Algiers. Any Algerian who has done his national service has held a Chinese made rifle and served in a military modeled after the People’s Liberation Army.
Miresaka lalina kokoa ny fifandraisana amin'izao fotoana izao i Kal avy eo. Hoy indrindra izy mikasika izany :
Algerians have not taken well to the large numbers of Chinese that have arrived in Algeria over the last decade, mostly to build the housing units and infrastructure projects president Bouteflika promised Algerians in 1999, 2004 and 2009. Algerians want those jobs. But they’ve gone to Chinese firms on Chinese terms.
Hoy ihany izy :
So the flare ups in Sino-Algerian relations recently have been the result of domestic politics; in other words, areas the two governments historically have ignored in their dealings with one another. But now, rebells in Algeria are setting upon Chinese interests based on the conduct of a Chinese rebellion; and ordinary Algerians are roughing up Chinese nationals, brought to the country as a result of this otherwise long and happy relationship.
Hisy fiatraikany amin'ny fifandraisan'ny Sinoa sy ny Alzeriana ve izao fifandonana izao ? Tsy nampiova inona ao Alzeria izany, hoy ihany ny The Moor Next Door.
A headline like “Brawl breaks out in Algeria,” is the North African equivalent of something like “dog bites man”. One should consider that the day before Bab Ezzouar violence, there were youth riots in El Tarf, on the Tunisian border and that for a little more than a year intermittent violence has taken place between Ibadite Berbers and Arabic speakers Berriane, just north of Ghardaia. This is to say nothing of the numerous fits of car and tire burning that go on quite often elsewhere in Algeria. This is part of the setting of Bouteflika’s Algeria, and it is the failure of the socio-economic order he has setup, that addresses only macro-level economic and social problems, but fails to address the basic tensions in Algerian society in an effective way.
