Njengoba isiqhingi saseRhodes sesiqala ukusebenza ngokugcwele ezivakashini, izikhulu zikahulumeni waseGreece kanye nezokungcebeleka ziqinisekise abahambi ababhukhile - noma abacabanga ngokubhuka - ukuthi isiqhingi saseSouth Aegean sesikulungele ukubamukela.
Imililo yasendle ibangele ukuthi ukuphuma yezivakashi ezingaphezu kuka-20,000 futhi yabangela ukuphazamiseka kwabaningi eholidini esiqhingini. Kepha uhulumeni waseGreece umemezele ukuthi amadolobhana asele akhishwe njengezinyathelo zokuphepha aphephile kubahlali nezivakashi ukuthi babuyele kuzo.
Izikhulu zezokuvakasha zigcizelele ukuthi iRhodes isalokhu "yamukeleka kakhulu kunangaphambili", nokuthi yinani elilinganiselwe kuphela lamahhotela aseningizimu yesiqhingi ashaywe ngumlilo asavaliwe.
Isitatimende se- Amahhotela Association of Rhodes wathi: “Namuhla, isiqhingi saseRhodes sisebenza ngokugcwele, samukela izinkulungwane zezivakashi nsuku zonke futhi maduze nje u-100% wezindawo zokulala zesiqhingi zizotholakala ngokugcwele.”
Iphinde yamemezela isinyathelo sokubuyisela imiphumela yomuntu siqu yezivakashi ezikhishwe ezibuyele ekhaya zingayiphethe imithwalo yazo, mahhala, uma ihhotela ezihlala kulo liyilungu lenhlangano.
Uthando nokungenisa izihambi
“Ubuyile uRhodes! Siyajabula ukunazisa ukuthi isimo esiphuthumayo sokusebenza sesiphelelwe yisikhathi esiqhingini saseRhodes. Impilo manje isibuyela kwesijwayelekile kuso sonke isiqhingi saseRhodes, okuhlanganisa nezindawo ezimbalwa ezithintekile,” kusho uMnyango Wezokuvakasha waseGreece.
Isitatimende sengeze ngokuthi: "Izakhamizi zaseRhodes, ebezingamaqhawe futhi bezidela kuzo zonke lezi zinsuku ezinzima, kanye nezwe laseGreece, zibheke ngabomvu ukuqhubeka nokunikeza ukunakekela nokwamukela izihambi ezihlukile ezivakashini zakwamanye amazwe."
Ngaleso sikhathi, uMbusi Wesifunda waseNingizimu Aegean, uGeorge Hatzimakos uthe:
“URhodes usebuya ngamandla. Imiklamo yokubuyisela ngokushesha iyaqhubeka ezindaweni ezinomkhawulo wezindawo ezithintekile futhi umsebenzi wezokuvakasha usubuyele ngokushesha 'ebhizinisini njengenjwayelo'. Siqinisekisa ngokugcwele izivakashi zethu ukuthi zingajabulela izinto zokuvakasha ezingavamile kanye nokungenisa izihambi okuyiqiniso okuhlinzekwa yiRhodes enhle njengendawo ehamba phambili yezokuvakasha emhlabeni wonke.”
Sibonga abantu bendawo “abangamaqhawe”
Babalelwa ezigidini ezi-2.6 abantu abavakashele eRhodes ngonyaka odlule. Futhi njengoba kunezivakashi eziningi ezivele zikhona esiqhingini, inqubo yokukhishwa kwabikwa kabanzi emithonjeni yamazwe ngamazwe futhi yaqokonyiswa emibhalweni yezokuxhumana yalabo abathintekayo.
Umoya wokungenisa izihambi nokuphana kwabantu bendawo ngesikhathi sokukhishwa kwabantu kwanconywa kakhulu.
LOKHO ONGAKUTHATHE KULESI SIHLOKO:
- Iphinde yamemezela isinyathelo sokubuyisela imiphumela yomuntu siqu yezivakashi ezikhishwe ezibuyele ekhaya zingayiphethe imithwalo yazo, mahhala, uma ihhotela ezihlala kulo liyilungu lenhlangano.
