After Nepal’s government was felled by a Gen Z protest, the countries in the region have grown nervous, especially China. Now, the Gen Z revolution has spread, but not in the same region. This revolution happened in Madagascar. Madagascar youth began protests that have only been building, holding signs that say “We want to live, not survive.”
In response to the protests, Madagascar’s President, Andy Rajoelina, has dissolved the government, saying in his dissolution announcement, “We acknowledge and apologise if members of the government have not carried out the tasks assigned to them.” Shortly afterwards, the military turned on the President, causing him to leave the country out of fear for his life.

Madagascar President Andry Rajoelina said he has fled the country in fear for his life following a military rebellion but did not announce his resignation in a speech broadcast on social media late Monday from an undisclosed location.
Rajoelina has faced weeks of Gen Z-led anti-government protests, which reached a pivotal point on Saturday when an elite military unit joined the protests and called for the president and other government ministers to step down. That prompted Rajoelina to say that an illegal attempt to seize power was underway in the Indian Ocean island and leave the country.
