Freedom

Freedom is the right to do or say what you want without anyone stopping you: freedom of speach ,freedom of thought ,freedom of expression ,freedom of information. The state of being able to do what you want : freedom of action , choise

In madagascar , freedom is found by two ways : it is not only a right ,but also a privilege .In Madagascar ,freedom is very complicated .Madagascar was a french colony from 1896 to 1946 ;after that a territory of the French communoty , an autonomies Republic in 1958 and since 1960 has been a completely independent and sovervign country .

During the colonisation ,Malagasy people didn’t know freedoms .Since our independence , in 1960, we start have our right in general .

Some of us said that freedom exists butand not. the gouvernment try to convince that freedom exists but it does not give much right about freedom of speach . The gouvernment doesn’t emforce the laws as well as it would be .Some members said that Madagascar does npot have economie freedom .It still depend on the inbtermational trade .Some other said that freedom is limited because there is a law .

In our country , few people have privileges in life . They can’t satisfy their desire . They cannot travel , live perfectly and educated . But laws are needed to preserve the freedom in order to avoid the strongest power .

In another hand , freedom exists in Madagascar ; we live in a democratic country . Everyone can elect by vote . We have a constitution a parliament , a senate . So , compared with the time of colonisation , we have freedom now ? All citizens are in the same level . One member accuses the authority to block the freedom because even the wages are affected by taxes . All in all ,we never know such as serious war.

circumcision

It is originally a custom in wich a boy becomes a man , but for pratical reasons, in the Madagascar of to day, it is practised already with boys of very young age (two to three years on the high plateau) .

It is practised during the dry and cold season. Depending on the family and the tribe, people go to the doctor or still celebrate it following the tradition such as Sambatra in Mananjary (east cost )

The circumcision is usually celebrated with a family party . If you see a parade along the street with people carrying sugarcanes , banana leaves and a Malagasy flag ; this usually is a circumcision party.
