Yang Lan: The generation that's remaking China

Prevoditelj: Tilen Pigac - EFZG Recezent: Katarina Smetko

The night before I was heading for Scotland,

Noć prije nego sam krenula u Škotsku,

I was invited to host the final

pozvana sam da vodim finale

of "China's Got Talent" show in Shanghai

emisije "Kineski talent" u Šangaju

with the 80,000 live audience in the stadium.

s 80.000 ljudi u publici na stadionu.

Guess who was the performing guest?

Pogodite tko je bio gost izvođač?

Susan Boyle.

Susan Boyle.

And I told her, "I'm going to Scotland the next day."

Rekla sam joj, "Sutra odlazim u Škotsku".

She sang beautifully,

Prekrasno je pjevala

and she even managed to say a few words in Chinese:

i čak je uspjela reći nekoliko riječi na kineskom.

送你葱

[kineski]

So it's not like "hello" or "thank you,"

Dakle, ne "bok" ili "hvala vam",

that ordinary stuff.

te obične stvari.

It means "green onion for free."

Ovo znači "besplatan zeleni luk".

Why did she say that?

Zašto je to rekla?

Because it was a line

Zato što je to bila uzreka

from our Chinese parallel Susan Boyle --

naše kineske inačice Susan Boyle --

a 50-some year-old woman,

žene stare 50 i nešto godina,

a vegetable vendor in Shanghai,

prodavačice povrća iz Šangaja,

who loves singing Western opera,

koja obožava pjevati zapadnjačku operu,

but she didn't understand

ali nije razumijela

any English or French or Italian,

ništa od engleskog ili francuskog ili talijanskog,

so she managed to fill in the lyrics

već je nadopunjavala tekstove

with vegetable names in Chinese.

kineskim nazivima povrća.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

And the last sentence of Nessun Dorma

I zadnja rečenica arije Nessun Dorma

that she was singing in the stadium

koju je pjevala na stadionu

was "green onion for free."

bila je "besplatan zeleni luk".

So [as] Susan Boyle was saying that,

Dakle, kako je Susan Boyle to izgovarala,

80,000 live audience sang together.

80.000 ljudi u publici pjevalo je zajedno s njom.

That was hilarious.

Bilo je presmiješno.

So I guess both Susan Boyle

Stoga vjerujem kako su i Susan Boyle

and this vegetable vendor in Shanghai

i ta prodavačica povrća iz Šangaja

belonged to otherness.

pripadale drugosti.

They were the least expected to be successful

Od njih se najmanje očekivalo da budu uspješne

in the business called entertainment,

u industriji zabave,

yet their courage and talent brought them through.

no ipak, pomogli su im njihova hrabrost i talent.

And a show and a platform

I emisija i platforma

gave them the stage

dale su im pozornicu

to realize their dreams.

da ostvare svoje snove.

Well, being different is not that difficult.

Dakle, biti drugačiji nije toliko teško.

We are all different

Svi smo mi različiti

from different perspectives.

iz različitih perspektiva.

But I think being different is good,

Ali mislim da je dobro biti drugačiji

because you present a different point of view.

jer predstavljate drugačije gledište.

You may have the chance to make a difference.

Možete dobiti priliku da učinite nešto značajno.

My generation has been very fortunate

Moja generacija imala je mnogo sreće

to witness and participate

da svjedoči i sudjeluje

in the historic transformation of China

u povijesnoj preobrazbi Kine

that has made so many changes

koja je učinila toliko mnogo promjena

in the past 20, 30 years.

u posljednjih 20, 30 godina.

I remember that in the year of 1990,

Sjećam se 1990. godine,

when I was graduating from college,

kad sam diplomirala,

I was applying for a job in the sales department

prijavila sam se za posao u odjelu prodaje

of the first five-star hotel in Beijing,

prvog hotela s pet zvjezdica u Pekingu,

Great Wall Sheraton -- it's still there.

Great Wall Sheraton -- još uvijek postoji.

So after being interrogated

Nakon što me neki

by this Japanese manager for a half an hour,

japanski menadžer ispitivao pola sata,

he finally said,

na kraju je rekao,

"So, Miss Yang,

"Dakle, gđice Yang,

do you have any questions to ask me?"

imate li vi kakvih pitanja za mene?"

I summoned my courage and poise and said,

Skupila sam hrabrost i pribrala se i rekla:

"Yes, but could you let me know,

"Da, možete li mi reći

what actually do you sell?"

što vi zapravo prodajete?"

I didn't have a clue what a sales department was about

Nisam imala pojma što se radi u odjelu prodaje

in a five-star hotel.

u hotelu s pet zvjezdica.

That was the first day I set my foot

To mi je bio prvi put da sam kročila nogom

in a five-star hotel.

u hotel s pet zvjezdica.

Around the same time,

Otprilike u to vrijeme

I was going through an audition --

sudjelovala sam u audiciji --

the first ever open audition

prvoj otvorenoj audiciji

by national television in China --

koju je održala kineska nacionalna televizija --

with another thousand college girls.

s tisuću drugih studentica.

The producer told us

Producent nam je rekao

they were looking for some sweet, innocent

kako traže neko slatko, nevino

and beautiful fresh face.

i lijepo novo lice.

So when it was my turn, I stood up and said,

Stoga, kad sam došla na red, ustala sam i rekla:

"Why [do] women's personalities on television

"Zašto ženska lica na televiziji

always have to be beautiful, sweet, innocent

uvijek moraju biti lijepa, slatka, nevina

and, you know, supportive?

i, znate, puna razumijevanja?

Why can't they have their own ideas

Zašto ne mogu imati svoje ideje

and their own voice?"

i svoj glas?"

I thought I kind of offended them.

Mislila sam da sam ih uvrijedila.

But actually, they were impressed by my words.

Ali zapravo, bili su impresionirani mojim riječima.

And so I was in the second round of competition,

I tako sam došla u drugi krug natjecanja,

and then the third and the fourth.

pa zatim u treći i četvrti.

After seven rounds of competition,

Nakon sedam krugova natjecanja,

I was the last one to survive it.

samo sam ja ostala.

So I was on a national television prime-time show.

Bila sam na nacionalnoj televiziji u emisiji u udarnom terminu.

And believe it or not,

I vjerovali ili ne,

that was the first show on Chinese television

to je bila prva emisija na kineskoj televiziji

that allowed its hosts

koja je dozvolila svojim voditeljima

to speak out of their own minds

da iznesu svoja mišljenja

without reading an approved script.

bez čitanja odobrenog scenarija.

(Applause)

(Pljesak)

And my weekly audience at that time

A moja tjedna publika u to vrijeme

was between 200 to 300 million people.

imala je između 200 i 300 milijuna ljudi.

Well after a few years,

Nakon nekoliko godina,

I decided to go to the U.S. and Columbia University

odlučila sam otići u SAD na Sveučilište Columbia

to pursue my postgraduate studies,

kako bih upisala poslijediplomski studij,

and then started my own media company,

a zatim sam pokrenula svoju vlastitu medijsku tvrtku,

which was unthought of

što je bilo nezamislivo

during the years that I started my career.

u vrijeme kad sam započela svoju karijeru.

So we do a lot of things.

Dakle, mi radimo mnogo stvari.

I've interviewed more than a thousand people in the past.

Do danas sam intervjuirala više od tisuću ljudi.

And sometimes I have young people approaching me

I ponekad mi prilaze mladi ljudi

say, "Lan, you changed my life,"

i kažu: "Lan, promijenila si mi život",

and I feel proud of that.

i ponosna sam na to.

But then we are also so fortunate

Ali opet, mi isto tako imamo i sreću

to witness the transformation of the whole country.

što smo svjedoci preobrazbe naše cijele zemlje.

I was in Beijing's bidding for the Olympic Games.

Bila sam u Pekingu na nadmetanju za Olimpijske igre.

I was representing the Shanghai Expo.

Predstavljala sam Expo u Šangaju.

I saw China embracing the world

Vidjela sam kako Kina prihvaća svijet

and vice versa.

i obrnuto.

But then sometimes I'm thinking,

Ali ponekad razmišljam,

what are today's young generation up to?

što današnja mlada generacija radi?

How are they different,

Po čemu su oni različiti,

and what are the differences they are going to make

i koje će promjene učiniti

to shape the future of China,

kako bi oblikovali budućnost Kine,

or at large, the world?

ili još više, svijeta?

So today I want to talk about young people

Stoga danas želim govoriti o mladim ljudima

through the platform of social media.

kroz platformu društvenih medija.

First of all, who are they? [What] do they look like?

Kao prvo, tko su oni? Kako izgledaju?

Well this is a girl called Guo Meimei --

Ovo je djevojka po imenu Guo Meimei --

20 years old, beautiful.

ima 20 godina, prekrasna je.

She showed off her expensive bags,

Razmetala se svojim skupim torbicama,

clothes and car

odjećom i automobilom

on her microblog,

na svom mikroblogu,

which is the Chinese version of Twitter.

što je kineska verzija Twittera.

And she claimed to be the general manager of Red Cross

Tvrdila je da je generalna direktorica Crvenog križa

at the Chamber of Commerce.

u Trgovačkoj komori.

She didn't realize

Nije znala

that she stepped on a sensitive nerve

da je dirnula u živac

and aroused national questioning,

i uzrokovala propitkivanje u cijeloj zemlji,

almost a turmoil,

gotovo nemir,

against the credibility of Red Cross.

protiv vjerodostojnosti Crvenog križa.

The controversy was so heated

Kontroverza se toliko zakuhala

that the Red Cross had to open a press conference

da je Crveni križ morao održati konferenciju za novinare

to clarify it,

kako bi sve pojasnio,

and the investigation is going on.

a istraga još uvijek traje.

So far, as of today,

Do sada, do danas,

we know that she herself made up that title --

znamo kako je ona sama izmislila tu titulu --

probably because she feels proud to be associated with charity.

vjerojatno jer se osjeća ponosnom što je povezana s dobrotvornom udrugom.

All those expensive items

Sve te skupe stvari

were given to her as gifts

darovao joj je

by her boyfriend,

njezin dečko,

who used to be a board member

koji je bio član odbora

in a subdivision of Red Cross at Chamber of Commerce.

u odjelu Crvenog križa u Trgovačkoj komori.

It's very complicated to explain.

Vrlo je komplicirano za objasniti.

But anyway, the public still doesn't buy it.

U svakom slučaju, javnost još uvijek ne vjeruje.

It is still boiling.

Još uvijek se to kuha.

It shows us a general mistrust

To nam pokazuje opće nepovjerenje

of government or government-backed institutions,

u vladine ili institucije koje vlada podupire,

which lacked transparency in the past.

a koje prije nisu bile transparentne.

And also it showed us

To nam je isto tako pokazalo

the power and the impact of social media

moć i utjecaj društvenih medija

as microblog.

poput mikrobloga.

Microblog boomed in the year of 2010,

Mikroblog je naglo postao popularan 2010. godine,

with visitors doubled

kada se broj posjetitelja udvostručio,

and time spent on it tripled.

a vrijeme provedeno na njemu utrostručilo.

Sina.com, a major news portal,

Sina.com, veliki portal za vijesti,

alone has more than 140 million microbloggers.

sam ima preko 140 milijuna mikroblogera.

On Tencent, 200 million.

Na Tencentu, 200 milijuna.

The most popular blogger --

Najpopularnija blogerica --

it's not me --

nisam ja --

it's a movie star,

filmska je zvijezda,

and she has more than 9.5 million followers, or fans.

i ima preko 9,5 milijuna sljedbenika, ili obožavatelja.

About 80 percent of those microbloggers are young people,

Oko 80 posto tih mikroblogera mladi su ljudi,

under 30 years old.

mlađi od 30 godina.

And because, as you know,

Budući da su, kao što znate,

the traditional media is still heavily controlled by the government,

tradicionalni mediji još uvijek pod strogom kontrolom vlade,

social media offers an opening

društveni mediji pružaju mogućnost

to let the steam out a little bit.

da se ljudi malo ispušu.

But because you don't have many other openings,

Ali budući da nemate mnogo drugih mogućnosti,

the heat coming out of this opening

ponekad je snaga tog ispuhivanja

is sometimes very strong, active

vrlo velika, aktivna

and even violent.

i čak nasilna.

So through microblogging,

Dakle, kroz mikroblogove

we are able to understand Chinese youth even better.

možemo još bolje shvatiti kinesku mladež.

So how are they different?

Dakle, po čemu su oni drugačiji?

First of all, most of them were born

Kao prvo, većina njih rođena je

in the 80s and 90s,

u 80-ima i 90-ima,

under the one-child policy.

za vrijeme Politike jednog djeteta.

And because of selected abortion

A zbog selektivnog pobačaja

by families who favored boys to girls,

u obiteljima koje su preferirale dječake, a ne djevojčice,

now we have ended up

sad na kraju imamo

with 30 million more young men than women.

30 milijuna mladića više nego djevojaka.

That could pose

To može predstavljati

a potential danger to the society,

potencijalnu opasnost za društvo,

but who knows;

ali tko zna;

we're in a globalized world,

nalazimo se u globaliziranom svijetu,

so they can look for girlfriends from other countries.

stoga mogu tražiti djevojke iz drugih zemalja.

Most of them have fairly good education.

Većina njih ima relativno dobro obrazovanje.

The illiteracy rate in China among this generation

Nepismenost u Kini u toj generaciji

is under one percent.

manja je od jedan posto.

In cities, 80 percent of kids go to college.

U gradovima 80 posto djece odlazi na fakultet.

But they are facing an aging China

No, oni su suočeni sa starom Kinom

with a population above 65 years old

s populacijom starijom od 65 godina

coming up with seven-point-some percent this year,

koje ove godine ima nešto iznad sedam posto,

and about to be 15 percent

i koje će biti oko 15 posto

by the year of 2030.

do 2030. godine.

And you know we have the tradition

A znate da imamo tradiciju

that younger generations support the elders financially,

da mlađe generacije financijski podupiru starije,

and taking care of them when they're sick.

i brinu o njima kad su bolesni.

So it means young couples

Dakle, to znači kako će mladi parovi

will have to support four parents

morati uzdržavati četiri roditelja

who have a life expectancy of 73 years old.

koji imaju očekivanu životnu dob od 73 godine.

So making a living is not that easy

Dakle, zarađivanje za život nije tako lako

for young people.

mladim ljudima.

College graduates are not in short supply.

Fakultetski obrazovanog kadra ne nedostaje.

In urban areas,

U urbanim područjima

college graduates find the starting salary

visokoobrazovani imaju početnu plaću

is about 400 U.S. dollars a month,

od oko 400 američkih dolara mjesečno,

while the average rent

dok je prosječna stanarina

is above $500.

preko 500 dolara.

So what do they do? They have to share space --

I što oni rade? Moraju dijeliti prostor --

squeezed in very limited space

stisnuti u vrlo ograničenom prostoru

to save money --

kako bi uštedjeli novac --

and they call themselves "tribe of ants."

i nazivaju se "plemenom mrava".

And for those who are ready to get married

A oni koji su spremni vjenčati se

and buy their apartment,

i kupiti svoj stan,

they figured out they have to work

shvatili su da moraju raditi

for 30 to 40 years

30 do 40 godina

to afford their first apartment.

kako bi si mogli priuštiti svoj prvi stan.

That ratio in America

Za isto to u Americi

would only cost a couple five years to earn,

paru bi trebalo samo pet godina rada,

but in China it's 30 to 40 years

ali u Kini je potrebno 30 do 40 godina

with the skyrocketing real estate price.

s cijenama nekretnina koje divljaju.

Among the 200 million migrant workers,

Među 200 milijuna migracijskih radnika,

60 percent of them are young people.

60 posto njih mladi su ljudi.

They find themselves sort of sandwiched

Oni su nekako u sendviču

between the urban areas and the rural areas.

između urbanih i ruralnih područja.

Most of them don't want to go back to the countryside,

Većina njih ne želi se vratiti na selo,

but they don't have the sense of belonging.

ali nemaju osjećaj pripadnosti.

They work for longer hours

Rade duže

with less income, less social welfare.

za manje prihoda, manje socijalnih prava.

And they're more vulnerable

I oni imaju veće šanse

to job losses,

da izgube posao,

subject to inflation,

pogađa ih inflacija,

tightening loans from banks,

lihvarski bankovni krediti,

appreciation of the renminbi,

aprecijacija kineske valute renminbija,

or decline of demand

ili smanjenje potražnje

from Europe or America

iz Europe ili Amerike

for the products they produce.

za proizvodima koje proizvode.

Last year, though,

Prošle godine,

an appalling incident

zbila se strašna nesreća

in a southern OEM manufacturing compound in China:

u južnom proizvodnom području OEM-a u Kini:

13 young workers

13 mladih radnika

in their late teens and early 20s

u svojim kasnim tinejdžerskim godinama i ranim 20-ima

committed suicide,

počinili su samoubojstvo,

just one by one like causing a contagious disease.

jedan po jedan, kao da su dobili zaraznu bolest.

But they died because of all different personal reasons.

Ali oni su umrli iz različitih osobnih razloga.

But this whole incident

Cijeli taj incident

aroused a huge outcry from society

prouzrokovao je negodovanje društva

about the isolation,

zbog izolacije,

both physical and mental,

kako fizičke tako i mentalne,

of these migrant workers.

u kojoj su bili ti migracijski radnici.

For those who do return back to the countryside,

One koji se vrate na selo

they find themselves very welcome locally,

lokalno dočeka velika dobrodošlica,

because with the knowledge, skills and networks

jer pomoću znanja, vještina i mreža

they have learned in the cities,

koje su stekli u gradovima,

with the assistance of the Internet,

uz pomoć Interneta,

they're able to create more jobs,

mogu stvoriti više radnih mjesta,

upgrade local agriculture and create new business

unaprijediti lokalnu poljoprivredu i stvoriti nove poslovne prilike

in the less developed market.

na manje razvijenom tržištu.

So for the past few years, the coastal areas,

Posljednjih nekoliko godina obalna se područja

they found themselves in a shortage of labor.

bore s manjkom radne snage.

These diagrams show

Ovi dijagrami pokazuju

a more general social background.

općenitiju društvenu pozadinu.

The first one is the Engels coefficient,

Prvi je Engelsov koeficijent,

which explains that the cost of daily necessities

koji objašnjava kako je trošak dnevnih potreba

has dropped its percentage

padao u postotku

all through the past decade,

u cijelom prošlom desetljeću,

in terms of family income,

po pitanju obiteljskog prihoda,

to about 37-some percent.

na nekih 37 i nešto posto.

But then in the last two years,

No, u posljednje dvije godine

it goes up again to 39 percent,

opet dolazi na 39 posto,

indicating a rising living cost.

što ukazuje na povećanje troškova života.

The Gini coefficient

Gini koeficijent

has already passed the dangerous line of 0.4.

već je prešao opasnu granicu od 0,4.

Now it's 0.5 --

Sada je 0,5 --

even worse than that in America --

čak i gore nego u Americi --

showing us the income inequality.

što nam pokazuje dohodovnu nejednakost.

And so you see this whole society

I stoga vidite cijelo to društvo

getting frustrated

kako je isfrustrirano

about losing some of its mobility.

gubitkom dijela svoje mobilnosti.

And also, the bitterness and even resentment

Osim toga, ogorčenost i čak ozlojeđenost

towards the rich and the powerful

prema bogatima i moćnima

is quite widespread.

poprilično su raširene.

So any accusations of corruption

Stoga bi bilo kakve optužbe o korupciji

or backdoor dealings between authorities or business

ili tajnim podjelama između vlasti i poslovnog sektora

would arouse a social outcry

uzrokovale društveno negodovanje

or even unrest.

ili čak nemir.

So through some of the hottest topics on microblogging,

Dakle, kroz neke od najvrućih tema na mikroblogovima,

we can see what young people care most about.

možemo vidjeti do čega je mladim ljudima najviše stalo.

Social justice and government accountability

Društvena pravda i odgovornost vlade

runs the first in what they demand.

prve su na ljestvici njihovih zahtjeva.

For the past decade or so,

Posljednje desetljeće, otprilike,

a massive urbanization and development

masnovna urbanizacija i razvoj

have let us witness a lot of reports

omogućili su nam da svjedočimo

on the forced demolition

prisilnom rušenju

of private property.

privatne imovine.

And it has aroused huge anger and frustration

To je potaknulo mnogo bijesa i frustracija

among our young generation.

u našoj mladoj generaciji.

Sometimes people get killed,

Ponekad ljudi budu ubijeni,

and sometimes people set themselves on fire to protest.

ponekad se zapale u znak protesta.

So when these incidents are reported

Dakle, kad se o tim incidentima

more and more frequently on the Internet,

sve učestalije izvještava na Internetu,

people cry for the government to take actions to stop this.

ljudi traže da vlada nešto aktivno poduzme kako bi to zaustavila.

So the good news is that earlier this year,

Dobra je vijest kako je ranije ove godine

the state council passed a new regulation

državno vijeće donijelo novu uredbu

on house requisition and demolition

o reakviziciji i rušenju kuća

and passed the right

i odobrila je pravo

to order forced demolition from local governments

da ovlasti za prisilno rušenje prijeđu s lokalnih vlasti

to the court.

na sud.

Similarly, many other issues concerning public safety

Na sličan način, mnoga druga pitanja koja se tiču javne sigurnosti

is a hot topic on the Internet.

vruća su tema na Internetu.

We heard about polluted air,

Čuli smo o zagađenom zraku,

polluted water, poisoned food.

zagađenoj vodi, otrovanoj hrani.

And guess what, we have faked beef.

I pogodite što, krivotvorili smo govedinu.

They have sorts of ingredients

Postoje te neke vrste sastojaka

that you brush on a piece of chicken or fish,

kojima premažete komad piletine ili ribe,

and it turns it to look like beef.

i koji tada izgleda kao govedina.

And then lately,

U zadnje vrijeme,

people are very concerned about cooking oil,

ljudi su vrlo zabrinuti zbog ulja za kuhanje,

because thousands of people have been found

jer tisuće ljudi otkriveno je kako

[refining] cooking oil

rafinira ulje za kuhanje

from restaurant slop.

od restoranskih otpadaka.

So all these things

Dakle, sve su te stvari

have aroused a huge outcry from the Internet.

izazvale golemo negodovanje na internetu.

And fortunately,

Na sreću,

we have seen the government

vidjeli smo kako vlada

responding more timely and also more frequently

na vrijeme i sve češće odgovara

to the public concerns.

na brige javnosti.

While young people seem to be very sure

Dok se mladi ljudi čine vrlo sigurnima

about their participation

u svoje sudjelovanje

in public policy-making,

u oblikovanju javne politike,

but sometimes they're a little bit lost

ponekad su ipak pomalo izgubljeni

in terms of what they want for their personal life.

po pitanju onoga što žele u svojem privatnom životu.

China is soon to pass the U.S.

Kina će uskoro prestići SAD

as the number one market

kao glavno tržište

for luxury brands --

za luksuzne marke --

that's not including the Chinese expenditures

to ne uključuje kinesku potrošnju

in Europe and elsewhere.

u Europi i drugdje.

But you know what, half of those consumers

Ali znate što, polovica tih potrošača

are earning a salary below 2,000 U.S. dollars.

zarađuje plaću ispod 2.000 američkih dolara.

They're not rich at all.

Oni uopće nisu bogati.

They're taking those bags and clothes

Uzimaju te torbice i odjeću

as a sense of identity and social status.

kako bi imali osjećaj identiteta i društvenog statusa.

And this is a girl explicitly saying

A ova djevojka izravno kaže

on a TV dating show

u TV emisiji o izlascima

that she would rather cry in a BMW

kako bi radije plakala u BMW-u

than smile on a bicycle.

nego se smijala na biciklu.

But of course, we do have young people

Ali naravno, još uvijek imamo mlade ljude

who would still prefer to smile,

koji će se radije smijati,

whether in a BMW or [on] a bicycle.

bilo to u BMW-u ili na biciklu.

So in the next picture, you see a very popular phenomenon

Na idućoj slici vidite vrlo popularan fenomen -

called "naked" wedding, or "naked" marriage.

"golo" vjenčanje ili "goli" brak.

It does not mean they will wear nothing in the wedding,

To ne znači kako na vjenčanje neće ništa odjenuti,

but it shows that these young couples are ready to get married

već pokazuje kako su se ti mladi parovi spremni vjenčati

without a house, without a car, without a diamond ring

bez kuće, bez automobila, bez dijamantnog prstena

and without a wedding banquet,

i bez svadbene svečanosti,

to show their commitment to true love.

kako bi pokazali svoju odanost istinskoj ljubavi.

And also, people are doing good through social media.

Isto tako, ljudi čine dobra djela kroz društvene medije.

And the first picture showed us

Prva nam je slika pokazala

that a truck caging 500 homeless and kidnapped dogs

kako je kamion sa zatočenih 500 pasa lutalica i otetih pasa

for food processing

za preradu hrane

was spotted and stopped on the highway

opažen i zaustavljen na autocesti,

with the whole country watching

a cijela je zemlja to pratila

through microblogging.

preko mikroblogova.

People were donating money, dog food

Ljudi su donirali novac, pseću hranu

and offering volunteer work to stop that truck.

i nudili volonterski rad kako bi zaustavili taj kamion.

And after hours of negotiation,

Nakon sati pregovora,

500 dogs were rescued.

500 pasa bilo je spašeno.

And here also people are helping to find missing children.

A ovdje ljudi pomažu i pri traženju nestale djece.

A father posted his son's picture onto the Internet.

Otac je stavio sliku svog sina na Internet.

After thousands of resends in relay,

Nakon tisuća [nejasno],

the child was found,

dijete je pronađeno,

and we witnessed the reunion of the family

i svjedočili smo ponovnom okupljanju obitelji

through microblogging.

preko mikroblogova.

So happiness is the most popular word

Dakle, sreća je najpopularnija riječ

we have heard through the past two years.

koju smo čuli u posljednje dvije godine.

Happiness is not only related

Sreća nije povezana samo

to personal experiences and personal values,

s osobnim iskustvom i osobnim vrijednostima,

but also, it's about the environment.

već se radi i o okolini.

People are thinking about the following questions:

Ljudi razmišljaju o sljedećim pitanjima:

Are we going to sacrifice our environment further

Hoćemo li i dalje žrtvovati svoj okoliš

to produce higher GDP?

kako bismo imali viši BDP?

How are we going to perform our social and political reform

Kako ćemo provesti svoju društvenu i političku reformu

to keep pace with economic growth,

kako bismo zadržali korak s ekonomskim rastom,

to keep sustainability and stability?

kako bismo zadržali održivost i stabilnost?

And also, how capable is the system

Isto tako, koliko je sustav sposoban

of self-correctness

ispravljati sam sebe

to keep more people content

kako bi zadovoljio više ljudi

with all sorts of friction going on at the same time?

dok u isto vrijeme postoje i razna neslaganja?

I guess these are the questions people are going to answer.

Pretpostavljam da su to pitanja na koja će ljudi odgovoriti.

And our younger generation

A naša mlađa generacija

are going to transform this country

preobrazit će ovu zemlju

while at the same time being transformed themselves.

dok se u isto vrijeme i sami preobražavaju.

Thank you very much.

Puno vam hvala.
