I-International Air Transport Association (IATA) inxuse ohulumeni baseMpumalanga Ephakathi naseNyakatho Afrika (MENA) ukuthi bandise izinzuzo zezomnotho nezenhlalo zezindiza.
“Okwamanje izindiza zeseka imisebenzi engu-2.4 million kanye no-$130 billion kwezomnotho esifundeni sonke se-MENA. Lokho kumele u-3.3% wawo wonke umsebenzi kanye no-4.4% wayo yonke i-GDP esifundeni. Kule minyaka engu-20 ezayo silindele ukuthi izinombolo zabagibeli zikhule ngo-4.3% ngonyaka. Njengabaholi bezindiza kumele sisebenzisane kanye nohulumeni ukuze sifezekise leli khono—kanye nentuthuko yezomnotho nenhlalakahle ezoyithuthukisa,” kusho u-Alexandre de Juniac, uMqondisi Jikelele kanye no-CEO we-IATA, ekhuluma emhlanganweni we-Arab Air Carriers' Organisation (AACO) AGM. eCairo.
U-De Juniac ugqamise ukuthuthukisa ingqalasizinda yezindiza kanye nokuthuthukisa ukuncintisana ngenkathi esebenzela ekuvumelaneni kokulawula esifundeni sonke njengokubalulekile.
Ingqalasizinda Esebenzayo
Izwe laseMpumalanga Ephakathi libonise ukubona kusengaphambili ekuthuthukiseni ingqalasizinda yezindiza ezihamba phambili emhlabeni. U-De Juniac uzwakalise isexwayiso ngezinhlelo zokwenza isikhumulo sezindiza ezizimele esifundeni.
“Njengoba iSaudi Arabia kanye nabanye esifundeni sonke bebheka ukwenziwa kwezinto ezizimele zesikhumulo sezindiza umlayezo wethu ucacile futhi ulula: khuluma nabo bonke ababambiqhaza—ikakhulukazi izinkampani zezindiza—ukuqinisekisa ukuthi uzuza izinzuzo zesikhathi eside zezomnotho nezenhlalo. Asikho isidingo sokuthi ohulumeni bakulesi sifunda baphinde amaphutha enziwe kwezinye izingxenye zomhlaba. Ukubonisana akuyona nje into esemqoka, kufanele,” kusho u-de Juniac.
I-IATA iphinde yazwakalisa ukukhathazeka ngokubambezeleka kwezindiza eGulf. Ukulibaziseka okumaphakathi kwendiza ngayinye okubangelwa izinkinga ze-ATC esifundeni imizuzu engama-29. Ngaphandle kwenqubekelaphambili ephuthumayo, lokho kungase kuphindwe kabili ngo-2025 kubiza ngaphezu kwezigidigidi ezingu-7 zamaRandi ekukhiqizeni okulahlekile futhi kwengeze ngaphezu kwezigidigidi ezingu-9 zamaRandi ezindlekweni zokusebenza zezindiza.
“Kunesibalo esikhulu sezimoto endaweni elinganiselwe. Futhi isixazululo kuphela ukuphatha indawo iyonke. Ohulumeni kumele basuse ukuhlukana kwezepolitiki esikhundleni sokuthatha izinqumo ngokubambisana kweqe imingcele. Lokhu kufanele kwenzeke ngokushesha noma ukusebenza kahle kwezizinda zesifunda kuzophazamiseka kakhulu,” kusho u-de Juniac.
Ukuncintisana
Imboni yezindiza inokuncintisana kakhulu. Izindleko ezikhuphukayo endaweni ye-MENA kufanele zilawulwe ukuze kulondolozwe ukuncintisana kwaso. “Kusukela ngo-2016 sibone u-$1.6 billion engezwe ezindlekweni zemboni esifundeni se-MENA. Idola ngalinye ngezindleko ezengeziwe liyinselelo yezindiza zesifunda ezenza kuphela u-$5.89 umgibeli ngamunye. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ayisikhuthazi kubagibeli esithinta umhlaba wonke,” kusho u-de Juniac.
Umthetho Ovumelanayo
Izindinganiso zomhlaba wonke ziyisisekelo sohlelo lokuthutha emoyeni. Ukusebenza kahle kwalokhu kuboniswa kurekhodi lokuphepha lemboni. Ngokuphambene, ukwanda kwemithetho yokuvikela abathengi kunomthelela omubi kubathengi nezinkampani zezindiza. Bazabalaza nemithetho yokulawula edidayo, eyinkimbinkimbi futhi kwesinye isikhathi eqhudelanayo.
“Abathengi bahlinzekwa kangcono ngokuvikela okucacile, okulula nokuvumelanayo. Ngonyaka wezi-2015 izifundazwe zasebenza ndawonye ukuze kuzuzwe lokhu nge-ICAO eyethula umhlahlandlela womhlaba wonke kulo mkhakha obalulekile. Kubalulekile ukuthi i-ACAO Consumer Protection Guidelines for Arab States ilandele lesi siqondiso se-ICAO,” kusho u-de Juniac.
Ukuhluka kobulili
Ukweseka ukukhula okucatshangwayo kwezindiza kuzodinga abasebenzi abanwetshiwe. U-De Juniac ucele ohulumeni ukuthi bangene emandleni abesifazane ukuze basize ekunciphiseni ukushoda kwamakhono okukhulayo esifundeni.
“Sibhekene nenkinga yokushoda kwamakhono. Esiqongweni sesizini yasehlobo esenyakatho i-Emirates bekufanele inciphise amaza ngoba ibingenabo abashayeli bezindiza abenele. Ukuthola isisombululo salokho kuzodinga uchungechunge olunzulu lwezenzo esikhathini esizinzile. Futhi enye yazo—edlulela ngale kokushoda kwamabhanoyi—ukwenza abesifazane abaningi bathole imisebenzi kwezokundiza,” kusho u-de Juniac.
