IZimbabwe ikhangelele ukuthuthukisa ukuthengiselana kwezokuvakasha ngemva kweminyaka embalwa yehle njalo ifuna ukuheha abathandi bezemidlalo abahambela amazwe angomakhelwane baseNingizimu Afrika kumidlalo yeNdebe yoMhlaba ngonyaka ozayo.

Amakhulu amaningana abanhlangothi ezibona ngezokuvakasha, amaloji kanye lamanye amankampani ezokungcebeleka abuthene eHarare ukuzobukisa amabhizimusi abo kubathengi abavela eEurope, Asia, America lezinye indawo zeAfrica.

Enye yezinhloso zabo kwakuwukusizakala ngabalandeli bezemidlalo abalinganiselwa ku-400,000 XNUMX ngenxa yokuhambela iNdebe yoMhlaba yebhola ezoqala ezinyangeni eziyisishiyagalombili emazweni angomakhelwane baseNingizimu Afrika.

Ungqongqoshe wezokuvakasha eZimbabwe, uWalter Mzembi, uthi zisuka nje lo mqhudelwano oqala ukwenziwa e-Afrika bekuhloswe ukuthi ube ngoweNdebe yoMhlaba e-Afrika.

“Ibhidi ihlukanisa iNingizimu Afrika njengendawo kuphela yokudlala imidlalo yokuncintisana. Kodwa ukuqeqesha nokukhempa isifunda, amazwe angomakhelwane, akhululekile ukuya emaqenjini amakhempu,” usho kanje. "Futhi ngicabanga ukuthi wonke amazwe okuhlanganisa neZimbabwe alibambe ngamandla leli thuba."

UMzembi uthi izivakashi ezifika eZimbabwe zafinyelela ku-2.5 million eminyakeni emibili edlule, kodwa zehla ngengxenye eyodwa kwezintathu ngonyaka odlule. Uthi lokhu kudalwe ikakhulukazi ukuvezwa okungekuhle kanye nezixwayiso zokuvakasha mayelana nodlame lwezepolitiki ngesikhathi sokhetho lukazwelonke.

Kodwa izixwayiso ezinengi sezisusiwe selokhu kwagcotshwa uhulumende womanyano wamabandla amathathu amakhulu eZimbabwe ngoNhlolanja. Izivakashi ezifikayo zanda ngonyaka odlule, zifinyelela ezigidini ezimbili.

URunyararo Murandu uyisikhulu sezentengiso seNgamo Safaris ehambisa izinkambo ezindaweni ezikhangayo ezifana namapaki ezilwane zasendle, iVictoria Falls kanye namanxiwa asendulo aseGreater Zimbabwe.

Ekhuluma phambi kombukiso owenziwe ngamagatsha amakhulu ezihlahla embukisweni wezokuvakasha eHarare, uthi amabhizinisi abheke phezulu futhi abanye abalandeli beNdebe yoMhlaba sebebeke naye.

“Ngesikhathi siqala lo mbukiso babengebaningi abantu njengamanje, abantu ababukisayo. [Manje] sinabantu bamazwe ngamazwe, bezifunda abezayo futhi lokhu kwenza ikusasa eliqhakazile,” kusho uMurandu.

U-Sally Wynn usebenzisa isizindalwazi se-Wild Zambezi esihlinzeka ngolwazi mayelana nokukhempa nemisebenzi endaweni eqhelile yaseZimbabwe eduze nomfula iZambezi enyakatho.

Uthi uhulumeni wobumbano ulethe isithombe esihle ngezwe ngaphandle. Futhi ukwethulwa kwedola laseMelika kanye neRand laseNingizimu Afrika ukuze kuthathelwe indawo imali yaseZimbabwe kwaqeda ukukhuphuka kwentengo yezimpahla kwangenisa impahla ezitolo.

Uthi inselelo enkulu manje wuhlelo lweziqiwi olubhekene nokushoda kwezimali kule minyaka eyishumi edlule.

“Iminyaka embalwa edlule ibe yingozi kakhulu ezilwaneni zasendle lapha,” kusho uWynn. “Sithemba ukuthi ezokuvakasha zizosiza. Ngoba amarandi ezokuvakasha azokwenza uhlelo lwezindawo zokulondoloza imvelo luzenzele imali, futhi ngethemba, lukwazi ukukulima lokho lubuyisele ekuvikelekeni.”

Uthi ukubulawa kwabantu ngokungemthetho eziqiwini kunyukile ngenxa yokuntengantenga komnotho kodwa abaqaphi bayehluleka ukulwa nakho ngempumelelo ngenxa yokushoda kwezimoto zokuqapha kanye nophethiloli.

Uthemba ukuthi izivakashi zakwamanye amazwe kanye nezinhlangano zabo zinganikeza ukwesekwa kwangaphandle.

Uhulumende omutsha wethule uhlelo lokuvuselela umnotho weZimbabwe owehle ngamatshumi amane ekhulwini kuminyaka elitshumi edluleyo.

Ungqongqoshe uMzembi uthi ezokuvakasha ziyingxenye ebalulekile yalolo hlelo ngoba ngomunye wemikhakha ekwazi ukumelana nomnotho kunoma yimuphi umnotho.

“Ngiyethemba ukuthi ukubaluleka okunanyathiselwe kulo ngaphakathi kohlelo lwethu lokulungisa izimo eziphuthumayo zesikhashana kuzohambisana nezinsiza esizitholayo ngoba [zokuvakasha] zidinga umfutho ukuze kususwe yonke into,” kusho yena. . “Kodwa yisithelo esilenga kancane. Kuyimbangela yokusimama komnotho.”

UMzembi uthi imboni, eyakha ingxenye eyisithupha ekhulwini yomkhiqizo wezwe weZimbabwe eminyakeni emibili edluleyo ingaphindeka kabili ukuya ku-12% noma ngaphezulu eminyakeni emithathu ezayo.

Ezokuvakasha sezijoyine ezokulima, ezezimayini kanye nezokukhiqiza njengezinye zensika ezine zomnotho weZimbabwe ngakho-ke uthi zingadlala indima enkulu ekuvuseleleni umnotho kanye nokudala amathuba emisebenzi ezweni.
