(eTN) I Umphakathi waseMpumalanga AfrikaI-Common Market ye-(EAC) manje isisebenza ngokugcwele kusukela ngomhlaka-1 Julayi, kodwa izindaba “ezindala” seziphinde zaphakanyiswa futhi ezingakaxazululwa futhi ezibangela amaqembu ezomnotho amaningana ukuthi azibuze ukuthi ngabe bekumayelana nani uguquko.
Umkhakha wezokundiza, ngokwesibonelo, ikakhulukazi ababambiqhaza base-Uganda nabaseKenya, bathi imigoqo engakhokhi intela, ikakhulukazi eTanzania, ayizange isuswe nokuthi ukucwaswa kwezinkampani zezindiza zamanye amazwe angamalungu kusakhona, ukuzithatha njengezindiza zakwamanye amazwe futhi kuyaphoqa. ukuba bakhokhe imali ephakeme kanye nokubambezeleka kwemvume kuyilapho bevimbela ukuhlala ezindaweni ezingabizwa ngokuthi izindawo zokungena kwamanye amazwe. Yilolu daba lwakamuva oluvusa ukushisa kwengxabano, njengoba abashayeli bezindiza beveze ukuthi ngaphakathi komoya kanye nencwadi yezivumelwano ze-East African Community, izindawo kufanele zichithe izincazelo zamazwe ngamazwe futhi zethule izindlela zesifunda.
I-Charter kanye nabaphathi bezindiza zasekhaya le ntatheli ekhulume nabo ezinsukwini ezisanda kwedlula bebehlangene obizweni lwabo lokuthi ukuze kufakwe impilo ku-EAC, ZONKE izithiyo ezingakhokhiswa imali kumele zisuswe, futhi ukundiza kusuka kwelinye izwe kuya kwelinye kufanele kuphathwe ngayo ngendlela efanayo nokuhamba kwezindiza ngaphakathi kwalelo zwe eliyilungu lapho kulawulwa khona. Ukuphawula kwesikhulu sezindiza saseTanzania sokuthi “ukuvumelanisa kuyadingeka kuqala emazingeni amaningi kangaka, okuhlanganisa nezindaba zamalayisense” kuchithwe abashayeli bezindiza base-Uganda naseKenya, abashesha ukukhomba i-CASSOA, i-Civil Aviation Safety and Security Oversight Agency, eyasungulwa yi-EAC ukubhekana ngqo nalezi zinkinga, bese yengeza ngokuthi “abaseTanzania abafuni nje ukuncintisana, futhi uma beqhubeka nokusithatha njengabangaphandle, kungase kudingeke siyise lolu daba enkantolo yaseMpumalanga Afrika ukuze sithole isinqumo. .”
Khonamanjalo, kuphinde kwatholakala ukuthi ukuthokoza ngokuvalwa kwezimvume zokusebenza nakho kusenesikhathi, njengoba yiKenya neRwanda kuphela abasenesivumelwano samazwe amabili mayelana nalokhu, kanti abase-Uganda, abaseBurundi, abaseKenya, kanye nabaseTanzania bafisa ukusebenza kulezi zindawo. amazwe angamalungu abesangaphansi kwenqubo yokubhekisiswa, nakuba ngokolwazi lwakamuva oselulungisiwe ukuze athole isinqumo kungakapheli inyanga. Izakhamuzi ezivamile, nokho, zazibonakala zingajabule ngalesi simo, zifuna ukubuyisela “izinsuku zakudala zomphakathi wokuqala” lapho ukunyakaza ngokukhululeka kungokoqobo. Kuyaqondakala ukuthi iKenya ne-Uganda zidingida ngohlelo olufanayo nalolo olukhona phakathi kweRwanda neKenya, kodwa ngemithombo esemahhovisi ekomkhulu le-EAC e-Arusha kuphinde kwatholakala ukuthi iTanzania kubukeka sengathi ayinawo umuzwa wokuphuthuma ukusheshisa lesi sivumelwano, futhi. ukuboleka ukwethembeka ezimangalweni zabashayeli bezindiza zokuthi kunomqondo ocacile wokungabaza ababhekana nakho lapho besebenzelana neziphathimandla zaseTanzania.
Ngokumangazayo, uMongameli Mwai Kibaki waseKenya ube esephendula isililo sabantu baseMpumalanga Afrika ngobusuku bangaphambi kosuku oluyingqophamlando, lapho ememezele ngokungananazi ukuthi iKenya ngeke isakhokhisa noma iyiphi imali yezimvume zokusebenza zezakhamizi zaseMpumalanga Afrika. Amazwe angamalungu omphakathi kusukela mhla lu-1 kuNtulikazi, intuthuko ezokwengeza ngokungangabazeki ingcindezi kohulumeni bamanye amazwe ukuthi balandele lesi sibonelo ngokushesha okukhulu.
Nokho, ukuhwebelana ngaphakathi eMpumalanga Afrika sekungcono kakhulu kusukela ngoMasingana walo nyaka phakathi kwamazwe angamalungu, lapho isikhathi soguquko esiyizinyanga eziyisithupha esibheke kuJulayi 1 siqala futhi zonke izintela zangaphakathi sezifinyelele kuqanda. Ukuhamba kokutshalwa kwezimali nakho sekushintshele kuMphakathi WaseMpumalanga Afrika njengoba iKenya ngokungangabazeki ingumtshali-zimali omkhulu manje emazweni angomakhelwane.
