Ikusasa Lokuhambela eThailand

Umuthi wokugoma i-Oxford-AstraZeneca Covid-19 kufanele uvunyelwe eMbusweni waseThailand ukuze usetshenziswe ngokuphuthumayo. Kulindeleke kuleli sonto

Izibhedlela ezimbili ezizimele nazo zi-oda izigidi zemithamo yemithi yokugoma ye-coronavirus ngaphambi kwalesi sigunyazo sokulawula. Lokhu kungeze emyalweni kahulumeni wamanani ayizigidi ezingama-63 avela emithonjeni emibili eyinhloko njengoba iThailand igijimela ukusebenzisa imigomo yeningi labantu bayo. 

Mayelana nezakhamizi ezingezona ezaseThailand kusengakacaci ukuthi lokhu kuhlanganisa umphakathi omkhulu wama-expat noma uzokhishwa, njengoba izwe libhekana negagasi lesibili laleli gciwane.

Ikusasa lokuhamba eThailand ukuvula imingcele ngenkathi kuncishiswa ubungozi. Lokhu kungafinyelelwa ngokuqinisekisa ukuthi ukuwela imingcele ngokungemthetho kulawulwa ngokuqinile futhi bonke abahambi bayahlolwa. Abavakashi abafikayo akufanele bahlolelwe kuphela ukukhombisa ukuthi bakhululekile kwi-covid, kepha ukuvikela ukuvalelwa bodwa, kumele futhi ukuthi bagonyiwe. Izinombolo zizoba ncane ukuqala kodwa imboni imile ngokuphelele. Angikaze ngithole lutho olusondelene nemiphumela elimazayo ye-coronavirus. 

Imboni yezokuvakasha imile futhi njengamanje ilwa nezifo eziningi ezilethwa abasebenzi abampofu baseBurma abafuna umsebenzi futhi beqa umngcele besabalalisa izifo ngaphambi kokuthi kubekwe imingcele. Njengesinyathelo esiphikisayo sokunciphisa ukusabalala uhulumeni unqande wonke umuntu ezindaweni ezisengozini enkulu ukuthi ahambe ngokukhululeka ezweni lonke. Ukubeka amabhuleki aqinile kwezokuvakasha kwasekhaya ngaphezu kokufika kwamanye amazwe. Ukwethulwa kwezindawo ezinamakhodi anemibala kusetshenzisiwe selokhu kwaba nokuqubuka okukhulu eSamat Sakhon emakethe yokudla kwasolwandle nabasebenzi bokufika baseBurma ngokungemthetho. Ngaphezu kohambo lwasekhaya olunqatshelwe ushwele kulabo abangenayo ngokungemthetho unikezwe nguhulumeni waseThailand emzameni omkhulu wokunciphisa ukutheleleka nokuthi bonke abokufika ngokungemthetho babhaliswe futhi bahlolwe. 

I-Qantas ibuye idlale ngokufuna imigomo futhi kube yinkampani yezindiza yokuqala ukumemezela ukuthi izodinga abagibeli bamazwe ukuthi bagonywe. ISingapore ibuye icabangele ukuyekethisa imithetho yayo yokuhlukaniswa kwabahambi abagonyiwe uma izivivinyo zokwelashwa zibonisa imishanguzo engcupheni yokudlulisa okuphansi. (Noma kunjalo izivakashi zesikhashana zizodinga ukukhombisa ubufakazi bomshuwalense ukumboza ukwelashwa futhi izakhamuzi ezibuyayo zaseSingapore ezivela eBrithani naseNingizimu Afrika zizoba ngaphansi kweminye imikhawulo).

Kuze kube kunenqwaba yemithi yokugoma evunyiwe nelethiwe, akunakwenzeka nganoma ngubani ongaphandle kukahulumeni ukuthi adutshulwe. Kodwa-ke kuzoba nemakethe eqhutshwa yilabo abanemali yokugxuma kolayini njengoba sibonile muva nje. Lapho nje i-UK isivume umuthi wokugoma we-Pfizer / BioNTech, abasebenzeli bezokuvakasha e-India baqala ukubona ukwanda kohambo lokugoma olusheshayo oluya e-UK Attention manje seluse-US naseRussia njengezindawo zokugoma ezingaba khona. 

Kepha akuphathelene nemali kuphela. EThailand ngokusho kombiko weReuters, imithamo eyisigidi yomuthi wokugoma iSinovac iyalelwe yiThonburi Healthcare Group, enethuba lokuthenga ezinye izigidi eziyisishiyagalolunye. Iqembu lasesibhedlela lihlela ukusebenzisa isigamu ukuthambisa abasebenzi kwinethiwekhi yalo yezibhedlela ezingama-40. 

Uhulumeni waseThailand ucele ngokwehlukile imithamo eyizigidi ezimbili kusuka eSinovac Biotech yaseChina futhi ulindele ukulethwa kwemithamo engama-200,000 ngezinhlelo zokugoma abasebenzi abaphambili kanye nabasebenza kwezokwelapha ezindaweni ezinobungozi ngenyanga ezayo.

Uhulumeni uphinde wayalela imithamo eyizigidi ezingama-61 yomuthi wokugoma i-AstraZeneca, ozokhiqizwa yinkampani yasendaweni iSiam Bioscience ukuze isetshenziswe ekhaya futhi ithunyelwe ngaphandle.

Ezigulini, izikhungo zezokwelapha zikaThonburi zihlela ukunikeza imijovo emibili yokujova nge-3,200 baht ($ 106) futhi bathi abakwazi ukuthatha inzuzo ngoba kuyinkinga yokusiza izwe. 

Kodwa-ke kuthiwa amazwe acebile agcina imishanguzo ethembisa ukwedlula yonke ye-coronavirus, futhi abantu emazweni ampofu bangaphuthelwa ngenxa yalokho. Imikhankaso inxusa izinkampani ze-pharma ukuthi zabelane ngobuchwepheshe ukuze kwenziwe amanani amaningi.

Umuntu oyedwa kwabayishumi emazweni amaningi ampofu uzokwazi ukugonyelwa i-coronavirus ngoba amazwe acebile abuthe imithamo eminingi kunaleyo abayidingayo, kusho iPeople's Vaccine Alliance, umfelandawonye ohlanganisa i-Oxfam, Amnesty International kanye neGlobal Justice Now.

Bathe amazwe acebile athenge ama-54% esamba sesitokwe semithi yokugoma ethembisayo emhlabeni, yize behlala ku-14% kuphela wabantu emhlabeni, kusho i-Alliance. 

Lezo zizwe ezicebile zithenge imithamo eyanele yokugomela yonke imiphakathi yazo amahlandla amathathu kathathu ekupheleni kuka-2021 uma abafunelwa umuthi wokuvivinywa njengamanje abasezivivinyweni zokwelashwa bavunyelwe ukusetshenziswa.

Inhloko yeWorld Health Organisation (WHO), uTedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus uxwayisa ngokuthi umhlaba usenqenqemeni "lokwehluleka kokuziphatha okuyinhlekelele" mayelana nokusatshalaliswa kwemigomo ye-COVID-19, unxusa amazwe nabakhiqizi ukuthi babelane ngemithamo ngokwedlulele emazweni onke. UMnu Ghebreyesus uthe kuleli sonto ukuthi amathuba okusatshalaliswa ngokulingana asengozini enkulu. "Ekugcineni lezi zenzo zizokwandisa ubhadane."

Imishanguzo ephephile nephumelelayo ye-COVID-19 isho ukuthi impilo, kubandakanya ukuhamba, kungenzeka ibuyele kokujwayelekile ngosuku olulodwa. Uma kucatshangwa ukuthi imithi yokugoma ivikela nokuguquka okuningi kwamagciwane kanye nokusabalalisa igciwane, imikhawulo ye-COVID kufanele iphele uma kutholakala ukuzivikela komhlambi. Umhlaba wonke udinga ukuzivikela, futhi ukukufeza lokho ngo-2021 akunakwenzeka. 

[AJW: * Ukuzivikela komhlambi kuyindlela yokuvikelwa okungaqondile ezifweni ezithathelwanayo ezenzeka lapho iphesenti elanele labantu selivikelekile ekuthelelekeni, kungaba ngokugoma noma ngezifo ezedlule, ukunciphisa amathuba okutheleleka kubantu abangenakho ukuzivikela.]

Akuwona wonke amabhizinisi aphoqeleke ukuba avale kodwa ukungaqiniseki okusabalele kwezezimali kusho ukuthi umkhakha wezokuvakasha uthwale kanzima ngonyaka odlule. Kubi, kepha ngicabanga ukuthi noma singathola ingxenyana encane yabavakashi abangama-39m ka-2019 singasinda futhi sichume.

Umgomo wesikhathi esifushane ukusinda bese uqala ukuchuma 'ezweni elisha' lezokuvakasha. Ukubuyisa KONKE okulahlekile akuyona into engokoqobo noma engafinyeleleka futhi akufanele kube umgomo. 

Ukugxila kwethu ekulweni negciwane nokunikeza usizo embonini yethu yezokuvakasha kufanele kube yinhloso yazo zonke izinhlangano zezokuvakasha nezokuvakasha lapha eThailand. Ubumbano nobuholi budingeka kakhulu uma sizobheka phambili ekululameni kubandakanya ukwethulwa kwezinyathelo zokukhuthaza. 

Ukusheshisa ukusatshalaliswa kwemithi yokugoma kuyisihluthulelo sokubuyisela uhambo kokujwayelekile, nokuthola abantu abaningi ukugoma ngokushesha okukhulu.

Kwabaninimabhizinisi abaningi bezokuvakasha nabanikazi bamahhotela izinselelo ukuqinisekisa ukugeleza kwemali okuhle kanye ne-GOP. Noma ikuphi ukwenyuka kwenani lempahla kungamukeleka kepha akunakwenzeka njengamanje njengoba amanani entengo yendawo manje ebheke eningizimu. Ukulungiswa kwempahla nokushintshwa kwemishini kuzoba yinselelo yangempela ngokuzayo njengoba i-ROI isilela. 

Usizo lukahulumeni ngentela kanye nokuholelwa kwabasebenzi kungasiza kakhulu kulesi sikhathi kodwa imboni yethu ihlukene phakathi futhi 'ayihlelekile' ngomqondo ohlangene. Ohulumeni babheka izimboni zokungenisa izihambi nezinsizakalo ngokujwayelekile njengezisebenzi ezinhle zezindawo ezimpunga zabasebenzi, ezinendlela "yokuzihlela" ngaphandle kwesidingo esincane sosizo lukahulumeni. Noma ikuphi ukukhala kosizo kuvame ukunganakwa njengoba intando yezepolitiki imane ingekho. Izwi lethu liminywa izimboni ezihleleke kakhudlwana ezinikeza amathuba emisebenzi kanye notshalo-mali lwasekhaya. 

Imboni yezokuvakasha ibizwa ngokuthi yi- engabonakali thekelisa…

Kodwa-ke izibonelelo zikahulumeni kanye nemalimboleko kumabhizinisi amancane ibalulekile, ubunzima bezomnotho balolu bhubhane luzoqhubeka, ngakho-ke kubalulekile ukuthi amabhizinisi adonsa kanzima athole usizo lokugcina ukusebenza nokugcina abasebenzi behola.

Ukuhamba kuzodlala indima ebalulekile ekuvuseleleni umnotho waseThailand ezinyangeni ezizayo, kepha amabhizinisi azodinga izindlela zokuphila zikahulumeni ukuze aphile kuze kube yilapho uhambo olujwayelekile luqala kabusha ngokuphelele.

Futhi isifundo esisemqoka engisibonayo kwezinye izimboni ukuthi zikwazi ukuzivumelanisa nezimo ngokushesha, bheka abathengisi bama-noodle lapha eBangkok. Imigqa yamabhayisikili abamba ukuletha okususa ukudla - izinguquko ziyenzeka ebusuku futhi asikho isikhathi sezingxoxo nezingxoxo ezinde. Labo abangasabela ngokushesha kulokhu kushintshwa okukhulu kwezimfuno zabathengi nezinto eziza kuqala bazophuma phambili.

Mayelana nokugxuma endizeni nganoma yisiphi isikhathi maduzane, lokho kubonakala kungeke kwenzeke kakhulu. Izwe lami lokuzalwa i-UK, ngokusho kwemithetho yalo yamanje, uma ukuvalwa sekuphelile, iBrits ingaya ngokusemthethweni eholidini phesheya uma behlala endaweni eyodwa noma ezimbili. Kodwa-ke, amaholide awasebenzi kahle kumakhadi ase-UK kuze kube okungenani ngo-Ephreli 2021. 

Ngokuqondene neThailand izinyathelo zethu eziyisikhombisa zokuhamba ngaphambi kokuba noma ngubani anikezwe imvume yokungena, zinomthelela omkhulu enqubeni yokungena ezweni.

I-ASEAN Tourism Association (ASEANTA) ixwayise ngesonto eledlule ukuthi ama-70% ama-ejenti wezokuvakasha eThailand azoyeka ukusebenza kulo nyaka uma uhulumeni waseThailand engangeneleli ngosizo.

Kusobala ukuthi umzuliswano wesibili wobhubhane lweCovid-19 uluthinte kakhulu ukholo embonini yezokuvakasha engenayo yesikhathi esizayo, amanxusa amaningi kufanele anqume ukumisa noma ukuvala ukusebenza. Uhulumeni waseThailand akazange anikeze izinkampani ezizimele noma yiluphi usizo olukhulu, isikhathi esifushane noma eside. Kunokudideka okukhulu mayelana nokuthi kufanele utshale imali ekugcineni ibhizinisi liqhubeka noma livalwa. Uhulumeni kufanele acacise kumgomo wakhe ukusiza noma ukungasizi imboni yezokuvakasha.
