我旁边的几个年轻人用弹弓射警察。我看见了火光。Gazi公园里聚集了示威者。他们仍然控制着广场。今晚的人比我过去12天来看到的还要多。
The government in Greece has unexpectedly announced the suspension of state-run TV and radio stations with immediate effect to save money. A government spokesman said the level of waste at the Hellenic Broadcasting Corporation ERT was a scandal. He said the organization's 2,500 employees would be sacked. They'll be able to apply for work when the corporation re-launches as a smaller independent public broadcaster. Odin Linardatou is one of the employees affected.
希腊政府宣布暂停国有电视台和电台的运行,希望节省开支。这一举措出人意料。一名政府发言人表示希腊广播公司开支浪费是一个丑闻,2500名雇员已被解雇。他们能申请在公司成立的一个更小的独立的公共电视台工作。Odin Linardatou是被解雇的员工之一。
“It's without logic you know, I mean the people would happily see any active that is new, is a restructure maybe but not close down. Of course we had huge cuts in our salaries and we would have accepted it also if some of us were fired but that they can not accept in a democracy, in Greece is that Greece we not have a public broadcaster.”
“这毫无逻辑。人们很开心见到一个经过调整的新的组织结构,但不是关闭,当然我们薪水大幅缩减,我们能够接受,我们接受不了的是,在希腊这样一个民主国家,我们被解雇,而且整个国家还没有公共电视台。”
