Kampala — Izilwane zasendle zase-Uganda, amasiko kanye nezindawo zakhona ezinhle ziya ngokuya ziba umthombo onenzuzo wemali yangaphandle ezweni.
Izinkulungwane zabantu base-Uganda zibandakanyeka ngokuqondile nangokungaqondile ochungechungeni lwemisebenzi yezomnotho esekelayo njengokuqondisa, ezokuthutha, ubuciko nokwenza imisebenzi yezandla, indawo yokuhlala nokudla.
Ngonyaka odlule, i-Uganda Wildlife Authority yabika, umnotho wahola u-Shs1.2 trillion ($560 wezigidi) emkhakheni wezokuvakasha, wawubeka ohlwini olusha lwabahola kakhulu e-Uganda abahola kakhulu kanye, imali evela kubantu base-Uganda abasebenza phesheya, ikhofi nezinhlanzi ezithunyelwa ngaphandle. Le mali yatholwa kubavakashi abayizi-844,000 abavakashele e-Uganda phakathi nonyaka.
Naphezu kwalezi zibalo, kuncane okungaboniswa, ngokusho kwabadlali bezimboni, ngokuzibophezela kukahulumeni ekusizeni lo mkhakha ukhule kakhulu.
Emhlanganweni wesihlanu we-Africa-Asia Business Forum obuseKampala ngesonto eledlule, uMongameli Yoweri Museveni uthe imboni yezokuvakasha inamandla okuguqula i-Uganda ezweni elithuthukile.
UMengameli uthe uhulumeni wakhe usewukhokhise kabusha umkhakha wezokuvakasha e-Uganda ngokwenza i-Uganda indawo ephephile abangaya kuyo, ngaphezu kokwenza izindawo zezokuvakasha zifinyeleleke kalula.
Kodwa-ke, lo mkhakha, okungenzeka ukuthi ube yiwona ohamba phambili e-Uganda ngokungenisa imali yangaphandle, usalokhu unemali encane futhi ucishe ungaqashelwa uma kuza ekwabiweni kwesabelomali sikazwelonke.
Ngesikhathi efunda inkulumo yesabelomali sika-2009/10, ngoJuni 11, uNgqongqoshe wezeziMali uSyda Bbumba, wabele lo mkhakha u-Rs2 billion nakuba ayewuqaphela, “njengomunye wemikhakha yezinsiza ekhula ngokushesha emnothweni futhi engenisa imali yangaphandle eyinhloko ezweni . ”
Ngokuphambene, ngosuku olufanayo, iKenya, okuyindawo ehamba phambili yezokuvakasha eMpumalanga Afrika, yabelwa lo mkhakha isabelomali sezindleko esikhulu ngokuphindwe izikhathi ezingu-17 kunesase-Uganda, naphezu kweqiniso lokuthi umnotho uphindwe kabili kuphela kunowase-Uganda.
Enkulumeni yakhe yesabelomali, uNgqongqoshe wezeziMali waseKenya, u-Uhuru Kenyatta ubeke imali eshisiwe engu-Shs34 billion (Kshs1,200 million), ukuze kuthuthukiswe umkhakha wezokuvakasha wezwe owalinyazwa ukuntengantenga komnotho kanye nodlame lwangemva kokhetho olwenzeka ngo-2008.
Ngokungafani noNkk Bbumba ongacacisanga ukuthi le mali ihloselwe ngani, uMnu Kenyatta ugqamise ukuthi imali elinganiselwa ku-R23 billion yayo yonke le mali izohanjiswa ngenhlangano iKenya Tourism Development Corporation ukuze ibolekwe osomabhizinisi abakulo mkhakha ukuze kuvikelwe imisebenzi. Uzakwabo kaNks Bbumba uphinde wabele i-kshs400 million noma u-Shs11.4 billion wokumaketha ezokuvakasha, “kubhekiswe ezimakethe ezisezingeni eliphezulu.”
Uphinde wakubeka kwacaca ukuthi lo mkhakha kulindeleke ukuthi ubambe iqhaza elikhulu ekufezeni izinjongo zaseKenya ze-Vision 2030 zamaphupho amakhulu entuthuko yesizwe kuyo yonke imikhakha.
"Kudingeka kuthathwe izinyathelo ezinqala ukuze lo mkhakha ukwazi ukumelana nezinselelo ezikhona futhi ubuyele ekusebenzeni kwawo okuncomekayo okwabonakala ngaphambi kweziyaluyalu zokhetho," kusho uMnu Kenyatta ngesikhathi efunda isabelomali sezwe lakhe okungenzeka sigcine i-Uganda endaweni yesithathu. isikhundla, esilinganisweni sezindawo eziyintandokazi zaseMpumalanga Afrika.
UNkz Bbumba, ngakolunye uhlangothi, uthe uhlelo lwesu leminyaka emihlanu lokubeka i-Uganda njengendawo eqhudelana nezivakashi lusalungiswa. Icebo uthe; “Sizozuza ngezinhlobonhlobo zezitshalo nezilwane ezicebile zase-Uganda,” ngaphandle kokudalula okuningi.
Futhi njengazo zonke ezinye izifundazwe zaseMpumalanga Afrika ngaphandle kwaseBurundi, ungqongqoshe wezeziMali wahlongoza ukungakhokhiswa intela yokungenisa kuzo zonke izimoto ezidonsa ngamasondo amane eziklanyelwe futhi ezakhelwe ngokukhethekile ezokuvakasha.
Nokho, kwezinye izikhulu embonini yezokuvakasha e-Uganda, ukukhululwa enteleni kwakungezona izindaba ezinhle. Umthombo walo mkhakha ongathandanga ukudalulwa ngenxa yokuthi akavumelekile ukukhuluma egameni lenkampani yomqashi wakhe ephethe i-tour and travel company, uthe inkuthazo yezimoto ifana nento engekho.
“Lezo zimoto zibiza kakhulu futhi ngeke sikwazi ukuzithenga kwamanye amazwe,” usho kanje wengeza ngokuthi incane kakhulu imali ebekwe uhulumeni. “Asazi nokuthi ishonaphi le mali uhulumeni ayibekile.” Ngisho nongqongqoshe wezokuVakasha akakwazanga ukusho ukuthi le mali iqondeni.
"Ngokwenyusa, buza i-UTB (Ibhodi Lezokuvakasha lase-Uganda)," kusho uNgqongqoshe uSerapio Rukundo engxoxweni yocingo neBusiness Power ngoLwesihlanu.
UMnu Edwin Muzahura oyimenenja yezokukhangisa kwa-UTB uthe, le mali engu-Shs2 billion eyabelwa ukukhangisa i-Uganda njengendawo yokuvakasha yabavakashi base-Europe Asia, nase-US. Uthe nokho imali incane kakhulu ukuthi ingashintsha isithunzi esihlanekezelwe sase-Uganda.
“U-Shs2 billion ungaqedwa ngezinyanga ezine nje uma sizomaketha i-Uganda kunoma yisiphi isiteshi sikamabonakude e-Europe,” esho engeza ngokuthi kubiza kakhulu ukuguqula isithunzi sase-Uganda. “Uma ukhuluma nge-Uganda wonke umuntu ukhumbula inkathi ka-Idi Amin.”
Wengeze ngokuthi ngenxa yesabelomali esincane, ngesikhathi kunemibukiso yezokuvakasha yamazwe ngamazwe lapho kuvela khona iKenya, iTanzania ne-Uganda, imikhankaso yokumaketha yaseKenya ishaye i-Uganda izikhathi ezingaba ngu-18. Wengeze ngokuthi iKenya njengamanye amazwe ase-Afrika afana neBotswana, Benin kanye ne-Angola, banamaqhinga anamandla okuthengisa e-Europe ngokusekelwe kwisabelomali sawo sezokuvakasha.
"Bakhona ezitimeleni ezingaphansi komhlaba zaseYurophu, nasezikhumulweni zezindiza lapho singekho," esho. “Ukufaka isibhengezo esikhumulweni sezindiza i-Heathrow (e-UK), kubiza u-$100,000 (cishe u-R219 million),” esho enezela ngokuthi i-UTB isala ingenayo enye indlela ngaphandle kokusebenzisa izindlela ezishibhile njengemibukiso yemigwaqo, nemibukiso.
Ukwehla kukaNkk Bbumba olwandle kusho nokuthi ibhodi lezokuvakasha lingakwazi ukunqwabelanisa amaphenathi angaphansi kwezigidi eziyisishiyagalolunye ngenyanga, uma le mali engu-R2 billion izosetshenziselwa ukuthenga amathikithi endiza, izindawo zokulala kanye namaholo abantu abaqhuba imikhankaso.
Ngenxa yoxhaso lwezimali uMnu Muzahura uthe, ibhodi lezokuvakasha belinabasebenzi abambalwa futhi alikwazi ukuheha abasebenzi abasezingeni eliphezulu.
“Uma uxhaswe ngemali kusho ukuthi awukwazi ukuheha abantu abalungile kodwa abasebenzi abasezingeni eliphansi ukuthi benze umsebenzi,” usho kanje. Ngokusho kwakhe, ibhodi lezokuvakasha lidinga imali elinganiselwa ku-Shs15 billion ngonyaka, ukuze libe sesimweni sokuzama ukuncintisana kahle neKenya, Tanzania, manje neRwanda.
Ngesonto eledlule ku-5th Africa-Asian Business Forum, uNobhala Wezangaphandle WaseJapan uNkz Seiko Hashimoto, waphawula ukuthi i-Uganda kanye ne-Afrika yonkana isalokhu iyizwe elikude kubantu abaningi base-Asia ngenxa yesithombe esingesihle esakhiwe abezindaba bamazwe ngamazwe mayelana nalo. Afrika.
"Kwezinye izimo, isithombe esibi esidalwa ukuntula ulwazi nolwazi, njengokuvikeleka okungazinzile kanye nokusabalala kwezifo kungase kubenze babandlulule i-Afrika," kusho yena.
"Ngikholelwa ukuthi imizamo emikhulu kufanele ifakwe ezinhlelweni zokuthuthukisa izithombe futhi ihlomise bonke ababambiqhaza ngolwazi olungcono nge-Afrika." Uphinde wathi kunesidingo sokugxila ekuthuthukisweni kwezokuphepha nokuthuthwa kwendle, okuyizinto ezimbili izivakashi eziziqakathekisa kakhulu ekukhetheni izindawo ezizohambela kuzo.
“Bonke ababambiqhaza kufanele babhekisise lezi zingxenye,” kusho uNksz Seiko etshela izithunywa ezingaba ngu-350 eSigcawini. Ngasohlangothini lwe-Afrika, uMnuz Rukundo, onguNgqongqoshe wezokuVakasha e-Uganda, unxuse amazwe ase-Asia ukuthi avumele i-African Airlines ukuthi indize iqonde emazweni azo ukuze kuthuthukiswe ezokuvakasha phakathi kwamazwekazi womabili.
Isibonelo, uthe i-Afrika ingathanda ukuba nezindiza eziqondile eziya eTokyo ukuze kunciphe ukukhathala emizileni.
"Ngiyakholwa, futhi angingabazi ukuthi amazwe ase-Afrika angenza izindawo zawo zibe zifiseleka futhi zanelise," esho esithangamini.
Imboni yezokuvakasha eMpumalanga Afrika kulindeleke ukuthi iphindeke kabili iye ku-$12 billion ngo-2018 isuka ku-$6 billion ngo-2008 kanti isibalo semisebenzi sizokhuphuka sibe ngaphezu kwezigidi ezingu-2.2 sisuka kwengu-1.7 million yamanje ngokombiko okhishwe umphakathi waseMpumalanga Afrika ekugcineni. unyaka.
Ukuze sizuze emalini engenayo ecishe ibe yinkulu ngokuphindwe kane kunesabelomali sayo sikazwelonke samanje, i-Uganda ingenza kangcono kuphela ngokutshala imali eningi emkhakheni wayo wezokuvakasha ukuze ifane naleyo yezimbangi zayo.
