Ingqungquthela yezinsuku ezintathu yaseNingizimu-mpumalanga ye-Asia Emayelana Nezokuvakasha Ngocansi Lwezingane yaphela ngoLwesihlanu, ngoMashi 20, 2009 e-Bali, e-Indonesia ngesimemezelo sabahlanganyeli abangama-205 esihlonza izinselelo zamanje kanye nohlelo lokusebenza maqondana nokusondela kohulumeni ezifundazweni ezingamalungu kusuka ku-Association of Southeast. Isifunda sase-Asia (ASEAN), kanye nezinkampani ezizimele kanye nomphakathi jikelele.
Esitatimendeni esibhaliwe, abahlanganyeli bamemezele: “Thina, abameleli bohulumeni, izinhlangano ezingekho ngaphansi kukahulumeni, izikhungo zamalungelo abantu, izinkampani ezizimele, abomthetho nomphakathi wezomthetho, abacwaningi, izifundiswa, izinhlangano zomphakathi kanye nezingane, sihlangene ndawonye e-Bali, I-Indonesia eNgqungqutheleni yaseNingizimu-mpumalanga ye-Asia Yokuvakasha Kwezingane Ngocansi. Sibuyekeze inqubekelaphambili yezinyathelo ezithathwe ohulumeni esifundeni ekubhekaneni nokuvakasha kocansi kwezingane.”
Abahlanganyeli baphinde bathi: “Situsa imizamo eminingi yendawo, yezwe, neyesifunda yokuthuthukisa amalungelo engane nokulwa nokuvakasha kobulili kwezingane. Nokho, sibona ukwanda kwezigameko zalobu bugebengu obubhekiswe ezinganeni. Sinxusa yonke imikhakha yomphakathi, ikakhulukazi amazwe angamalungu e-ASEAN, ukuthi akhuphule ngokushesha isinyathelo sokuvikela izingane futhi ashushise izephulamthetho. Siyakubona ukubaluleka kokubambisana kwesifunda nesamazwe ngamazwe ukuqinisekisa ukuthi izephulamthetho zigwetshwa.”
Embhalweni onesihloko esithi, "Ukuzibophezela kanye Nezincomo zase-Bali," ababambiqhaza babone ukuthi enye yezinselelo ezivelele ezibhekene nokuvakasha kocansi kwezingane esifundeni sase-ASEAN ubumpofu. Abahlanganyeli babevumelana ngazwi linye enkolelweni yabo yokuthi “ubumpofu busewumsuka wokuvakasha kocansi kwezingane.” Ezinye izici zihlanganisa ukufinyelela okulinganiselwe emfundweni, ubudlelwano bobulili, namandla abuthakathaka omthetho. Intuthuko yezobuchwepheshe, ikakhulukazi ukwanda kwe-inthanethi nezithombe ezihlukumeza izingane, kube nomthelela ebukhulu bamanje bokuxhashazwa kwezingane ngokocansi.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, ababambiqhaza baphinde baba nomuzwa wokuthi asikho isivumelwano samazwe ngamazwe ngegama elithi “ukuvakasha kocansi kwezingane.” Bavumelene ngokuthi abanye ababambiqhaza bezokuvakasha bakhathazekile ngomthelela ongemuhle ongase ube khona embonini yezokuvakasha. “Ngaphezu kwalokho, leli gama lingase lingayithathi kahle le nto, njengoba izivakashi zesikhathi eside, izakhamuzi zakwamanye amazwe, nabavakashi basezindlini benza lobu bugebengu ngokwandayo,” kusho abahlanganyeli. “Elinye igama elisetshenziswa abagcini bomthetho elithi ‘uhambo lwezaphula-mthetho zocansi lwezingane.’”
Izithunywa ziphinde zathi zikholelwa ukuthi ukuntengantenga komnotho okukhona kuzokwandisa ubungozi bezingane ekuvakasheleni ucansi lwezingane, nokuthi kukhona ukungqubuzana phakathi komthetho wesintu nomthetho wombuso, ikakhulukazi endabeni yokuvuma ukushada. “Nakuba wonke amazwe angamalungu e-ASEAN eyingxenye yezwe ku-Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), akuwona wonke umthetho kazwelonke ohambisana nezibopho ze-CRC,” kusho abahlanganyeli.
Bangeze ngokuthi abephula umthetho baya ngokuya behambela imiphakathi ekude futhi besebenzisa enye indawo yokuhlala (njengendawo yokuhlala emakhaya). "Imfundo nokuqwashisa kulezi zindawo kuncane kakhulu."
Ngokusho kwezithunywa, kunokuxhumana okulinganiselwe nokusebenzisana kuzo zonke izinhlaka zikahulumeni ezahlukene kanye naphakathi kwezinhlangano zomphakathi, nokuthi kunokuxhumana okulinganiselwe nokusekelwa yizinkampani ezizimele emizamweni yokulwa nokuvakasha kocansi kwezingane.
Ekukhipheni lezi zinselelo ezishiwo ngenhla, ababambiqhaza abangama-205 abavela emazweni ayi-17 bacele ohulumeni nezinkampani ezizimele, kanye nezinhlangano zomphakathi esifundeni sase-ASEAN ukuthi zisize ukulwa nokuvakasha kocansi kwezingane.
Esitatimendeni sabo esihlanganyelwe, abahlanganyeli bathi: “Sicela amazwe angamalungu e-ASEAN ukuthi agunyaze i-Optional Protocol ku-CRC ngokudayiswa kwezingane, ukudayisa ngomzimba kwezingane, nezithombe ezingcolile zezingane, uma zingakakwenzi lokho; ukuphoqelela umthetho wokushushisa izingane ezephula umthetho ngokocansi futhi lapho kufanele, basebenzisane esifundeni nasemhlabeni wonke ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukushushiswa okuphumelelayo; ukuvumelanisa umthetho kazwelonke neSivumelwano Samalungelo Engane futhi lapho kufanele, ukubonisana nabaholi bezenkolo ukuze kuxazululwe ukungezwani phakathi komthetho wesintu nowezwe; ukuthuthukisa ukwesekwa kwezobuchwepheshe kwabagcini bomthetho, njengabashushisi kanye namajaji; ukubhekana nezimbangela eziyisisekelo zokuvakasha kocansi kwezingane, okuhlanganisa nokuqinisekisa ukuthi yonke ingane ifinyelela ngokulinganayo imfundo; ziqale noma zithuthukise ukubambisana phakathi kwemikhakha kanye nokubambisana ukuze kuvikelwe izingane ekuvakasheni kocansi kwezingane; ukuhlangana minyaka yonke kuforamu yesifunda ukuze kuqashwe ukuqaliswa kwezinyathelo zokuvikela izingane; ukusekela nokusebenzisa Uhlelo LwaseNingizimu-mpumalanga Ye-Asia - Impendulo Yesifunda Esimeme Yokuvimbela Ukuxhashazwa Kwezingane Ngokocansi Kwezokuvakasha (2009-2013); ukuthuthukisa izindlela zokuvikela izingane, okuhlanganisa ukululama, ukuhlanganiswa kabusha, kanye nokunxeshezelwa kwezingane ezithintwa ukuvakasha kocansi kwezingane; ukukhuthaza nokuhlinzeka ngamathuba okuhlanganyela ngokugcwele kwezingane ekuphenduleni ukuvakasha kocansi kwezingane; futhi ithuthukise ikharikhulamu ngemfundo yocansi kanye namalungelo okuzala ezingane esikoleni.”
Banezela: “Sicela izinkampani ezizimele ukuba zandise imizamo yazo yokuvikela izingane ekuvakasheleni izingane zobulili; bakhiqize futhi babonise izinsiza zemfundo ukuze baqwashise futhi banikeze izingane amandla okuzivikela ekuvakasheni kocansi kwezingane; futhi iqwashise amakhasimende namakhasimende ukuthi aqonde izindima zawo nezibopho zawo ukuze avikele izingane futhi ikakhulukazi abahlinzeki be-inthanethi, ukusungula indlela yokubika esekelwe ku-inthanethi.”
Futhi ekugcineni, abahlanganyeli be-205 ngokuhlanganyela bathi: "Sicela izinhlangano zomphakathi kanye nezinhlangano zamazwe ngamazwe ukuqinisa ukusebenzisana nokuxhumana ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukusebenza kahle kwemisebenzi nezinhlelo zokuvikela izingane kanye nokuvimbela ukuvakasha kocansi ezinganeni; futhi ubambe iqhaza ohlelweni lwe-ASEAN Charter ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuvikelwa kwezingane nokukhuthazwa komphakathi onakekelayo.”
