Ukumaketha okusha kwabasebenza eTanzania ukuheha amaDola Abavakashi

"Njengoba imboni yezokuvakasha isiqala ukusimama futhi, sicela izinkampani zezokuvakasha ukuthi zamukele imakethe yama-Maasai yokuqoshwa ohlelweni lwakho ukuze uthole imakethe ekhulayo," kuphawula uMnu. Tarimo, wengeza ngokuthi umsebenzi wezandla ubuhlinzeka ngamathuba ezomnotho izinkulungwane zabantu ezweni.

Ngokwenhlangano ye-UN Education Science and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), umsebenzi wezandla ungumqashi wesibili ngemuva kwezolimo emazweni asathuthuka, iningi lawo aqashe abantu abangafundile, abangafundile nabesifazane.

Inani lemisebenzi yezandla lilinganiselwa ku-$34 billion ngonyaka emhlabeni jikelele kanti eTanzania isivakashi ngokwesilinganiso sisebenzise imali ephakathi kuka-$20 no-$80 emsebenzini wezandla, okwenza kube igugu elibalulekile ukwehlisa amazinga obumpofu ikakhulukazi kwabesifazane nentsha.

U-Eliakim Laizer, oyilungu leBhodi Yabahleli Bezokuvakasha Kwamasiko eTanzania (i-TATO), uncome i-TATO esebenzisana ne-UNDP ngemizamo yayo yokuvuselela imboni ebalulekile ukuze kuthuthukiswe amanye amabhizinisi, kubuyiswe izinkulungwane zemisebenzi elahlekile, kanye nokungenisa imali emnothweni.

Unxuse abezokuvakasha ukuthi basize ekuqhakambiseni izindawo zamasiko ukuze ezokuvakasha zibandakanyeke.

“Ezokuvakasha kwezamasiko zibanzi kakhulu kunezindawo zomlando nezitolo ze-curio. Kulokhu, izivakashi kufanele zichayeke ezindleleni ezijwayelekile zemiphakathi yendawo; ukudla kwabo kwendabuko, izingubo zokugqoka, izindlu, imidanso; nokunye nokunye,” kuphawula uMnu Laizer.

Ukudlulisa amadola esuka kubavakashi bamazwe ngamazwe ukuya kubantu abampofu abahlala ezindaweni ezivakashele kube yinselelo enkulu eTanzania.

Ukwenza isibonelo, amadola amaningi akhiqizwa endaweni yezivakashi esenyakatho yeTanzania edume umhlaba wonke, kodwa incane kakhulu ingena emaphaketheni abantu abavamile abahlala eduze kwayo.

Ngokocwaningo lwe-SNV olubizwa ngokuthi, “Tracing the Tourist Dollar in Northern Tanzania,” kuyilapho isekethe ye-safari esenyakatho iheha abavakashi abangu-700,000 ngemali ehlanganisiwe elinganiselwa ku-$950 wezigidi, kuphela i-18%, elingana no-$171 million, iya emiphakathini ezungezile, ngokusebenzisa imiphumela yokuphindaphinda.

Kodwa-ke, abahlaziyi bathi umsebenzi wokuvakasha wamasiko uyisibonelo esihle kakhulu sokudlulisa amadola ezivakashi kubantu abampofu kunanoma yini enye embonini yezokuvakasha.

Imali etholwayo yokuhwebelana kwamanye amazwe evela kwezokuvakasha eTanzania yehle yaya phansi ngeminyaka eyi-10 phakathi nonyaka ophela ngo-Okthoba 2020 ngenxa yemikhawulo yokuhamba ebekwe amazwe amaningana emhlabeni jikelele ukuphendula ubhubhane lwe-COVID-19.

Izibalo zeBank of Tanzania (BOT) zikhombisa ukuthi imali etholwa yiTanzania kwezokuvakasha esikhathini esibuyekezwayo yehle ngamaphesenti angaphezu kwama-50 yaya ku-$1.2 billion uma kuqhathaniswa nezigidigidi ezingama-2.5 zamarandi etholwe ngesikhathi esifanayo ngo-2019.

Le mali yagcina ukuqoshwa ngo-Okthoba 2020 lapho izwe lizuza u-$1.23 billion embonini yezokuvakasha.

Ukuvakasha kwezilwane zasendle eTanzania kuyaqhubeka nokukhula, njengoba izivakashi ezicishe zibe yizigidi eziyi-1.5 zivakashela izwe minyaka yonke, zihola izwe ama-dollar ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingama-2.5, okulingana namaphesenti acishe abe ngu-17.6 we-GDP, okuqinisa isikhundla sawo njengezwe elihola imali yangaphandle.

Ngokwengeziwe, ezokuvakasha zihlinzeka imisebenzi eqondile engama-600,000 kumaTanzania kanti abanye abangaphezu kwesigidi esisodwa bathola imali kulo mkhakha.
