Spanish to English: Estado de excepción en Bangkok
Source text - Spanish El Gobierno de Tailandia ha impesto el estado de excepción en Bangkok, para contener el aumento de la violencia relacionada con las manifestaciones antigubernamentales, a dos semanas de las elecciones generales.La medida entrará en vigor a partir de la medianoche de este martes al miércoles, afectará también a las zonas adyacentes a la capital y estará vigente durante 60 días, según el grupo de comunicación estatal MCOT.
El estado de excepción permite a las fuerzas de seguridad detener a sospechosos sin necesidad de presentar cargos, decretar el toque de queda, disolver reuniones públicas de más de cinco personas y censurar a los medios de información.
Al menos nueve personas han muerto y más de 500 han resultado heridas desde que las protestas empezaron a ocupar ministerios en noviembre pasado.
La violencia ha ido en aumento desde que los manifestantes comenzaran, el día 13 de enero, el bloqueo y ocupación de más de una decena de importantes avenidas de la capital con varios ataques con granada que han causado un muerto y decenas de heridos.
Translation - English The Thai Government has declared a state of emergency in Bangkok in an attempt to curb the increasing violence linked with anti-government protests, with the general election two weeks away. The measures, which will come into effect at midnight on Tuesday, will extend to the capital's surrounding areas and will remain in place for 60 days, according to the state-owned broadcaster MCOT.
Under the state of emergency, security forces will be able to detain suspects without charge, set a curfew, disperse public gatherings involving more than five people, and censor the media.
At least nine people have been killed and over 500 wounded since protesters started to occupy government buildings in November.
There has been a surge of violence since 13 January, when protesters began blocking and occupying more than ten of the capital's main thoroughfares, with a series of grenade attacks which have resulted in one death and dozens of injuries.
French to English: Stratégie de marketing
Source text - French Une stratégie marketing d'entreprise est une démarche d’étude et de réflexion dont le but est de s'approcher au plus près de l’adéquation offre-demande.
Cette démarche s'inscrit au sein de la stratégie de l'entreprise.
Il s'agit pour l'entreprise de viser à augmenter le chiffre d'affaires, les parts de marché et la permanence des clients par différenciation, motivation ou adaptation de l'offre solvable augmentant ainsi les économies d'échelle.
Dans ce cadre, le marketing stratégique, composante de la stratégie marketing, s'assure auprès des autres fonctions clés de l'entreprise (gestion de la qualité, logistique, management du système d'information, gestion des ressources humaines) de la faisabilité de l'offre.
La stratégie marketing se confond souvent avec la stratégie d'entreprise notamment dans les organisations faisant appel à un nombre restreint de métiers (de DAS) et négocie ainsi directement l'optimisation des synergies (ou flexibilité) de l'organisation et la rentabilité attendue par le service financier.
En fait, elle se résume souvent à l'élaboration d'un marketing-mix dont la cible désignée est le client.
Translation - English Developing a business marketing strategy is a process that requires research and consideration, and aims to achieve an optimal balance of supply and demand.
This process is part of the overall business strategy.
For a company, the purpose is to increase turnover, market share and customer retention through differentiation, incentives or solvent supply adaptation, thereby improving economies of scale.
In this context, strategic marketing - as an element of marketing strategy - serves to ensure the feasibility of the company's offering in its other main departments (quality control, logistics, information systems management, human resources management).
Marketing strategy often overlaps with business strategy, for example within organisations involving only a limited number of segments (SBUs), in which case it directly drives the optimisation of synergies (or flexibility) within the organisation and the profitability required by the finance department.
In fact, it often amounts to developing a 'marketing mix' in which the target identified is the customer.
