ANKARIHARY - LAKE OF SHAME

ENGLISH subtitles here on DoTSub

There is a lot place which are specific to Anatanarivo
One of them is Behoririka also called Chinatown
This is a very crowded place because you can find
goods for eveyday life and affordable to everyone
You can also buy foods from ambulant vendors
and they assure you that they’re using all the safest way to cook keep them
But what we know from Behoririka is its lake
or what looks more like a puond of dirty waters
People from Antananarivo are used to its smell
and some keeps throwing their garbage in front of everyone
This is also a location for leisure and playground for the kids
But fishing is forbidden and everyone is amazed
of the abundance of fishes
Only few seem to worry about the shame this lake is
and its threats to health and hygiene
I personally think that places like these ones can be avoided
With all the efforts they put on cleaning the capitale
I never saw improvements in Behoririka
I think there is no harm on doing so
