UNgqongqoshe Wezokuvakasha waseJamaica uBartlett ubambisene okusha noMongameli uClinton mayelana nokuqiniswa kwezokuvakasha

Kanye noMongameli kanye noNobhala uClinton, uNgqongqoshe Wezokuvakasha waseJamaica, uMhlonishwa. U-Edmund Bartlett ukhulume namuhla okuqhubekayo Umhlangano wesi-4 we-Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) Action Network on Post-Disaster Recovery at the University of the Virgin Islands, St. Thomas, USVI ukwethula I-Global Tourism Resilience and Crisis Management Centre.

Okulotshiweyo kwenkulumo yakhe eyisihluthulelo:

Ngizoqala le nkulumo eyisihluthulelo ngokuthi Uma singasebenzisa igama elilodwa ukuchaza kangcono imboni yezokuvakasha emhlabeni wonke lelo gama elilodwa lingasho “ukukhuthazela.” Lo mkhakha ngokomlando ububhekane nezinsongo eziningi kodwa ubulokhu ukhombisa ikhono elimangalisayo lokululama nokukhuphukela phezulu. Noma kunjalo, umkhakha wezokuvakasha emhlabeni wonke manje ubhekene nezinga elingakaze libonwe lokungaqiniseki kanye nokuguquguquka okufanele abenzi benqubomgomo baphendule kukho ngendlela enolaka, engaguquki. Kufanele sivikele imakethe yethu yezokuvakasha, ikakhulukazi ababambiqhaza bethu bomdabu, abasize ukuletha umhlaba ogwini lwethu. Inani labahlinzeki besevisi abaqhutshwa endaweni nabaphethwe bangeze inani elibalulekile emnothweni wase-Caribbean. Inkampani eyodwa, ikakhulukazi, iSandals, isize ekubekeni iCaribbean ebalazweni.

Ukuphuthuma okubalelwa ekuthuthukiseni ukuqina kwezindawo zokuvakasha emhlabeni wonke kusekelwe ekwenyukeni kwezinsongo zendabuko ezokuvakasha zomhlaba wonke njengezinhlekelele zemvelo ezihlobene nokushintsha kwesimo sezulu kanye nokufudumala komhlaba kanye nokuvela kwezinsongo ezintsha ezinjengobhubhane, ubuphekula kanye nobugebengu be-inthanethi obuhlobene isimo esishintshayo sokuhamba emhlabeni wonke, ukuxhumana kwabantu, ukushintshana kwezohwebo kanye nepolitiki yomhlaba wonke .

Njengongqongqoshe wezokuvakasha ovela kwesinye sezifunda ezikhahlamezeke kakhulu yizinhlekelele emhlabeni, ngingalokotha ngisho ukuthi, ngizibonela ngawami ukubaluleka kokwakha ukuqina emkhakheni wezokuvakasha. Akukhona nje ukuthi i-Caribbean iyisifunda esithandwa kakhulu yizinhlekelele emhlabeni ngenxa yokuthi iziqhingi eziningi zitholakala ngaphansi kwebhande lesiphepho sase-Atlantic lapho kukhiqizwa khona amaseli eziphepho futhi isifunda sihlala emigqeni emithathu yamaphutha okuzamazama komhlaba, futhi yisona esikhulu kunazo zonke. isifunda esincike kwezokuvakasha emhlabeni.

Idatha yezomnotho yakamuva kakhulu ikhombisa ukuthi ukuziphilisa komuntu oyedwa kwabane abahlala e-Caribbean kuxhumene nezokuvakasha kuyilapho ukuvakasha nezokuvakasha kunomthelela ku-15.2 % we-GDP yesifunda jikelele kanye nangaphezulu kuka-25% we-GDP engaphezu kwengxenye yamazwe. Endabeni yeBritish Virgin Islands, ezokuvakasha zinomthelela ku-98.5% we-GDP. Lezi zibalo zibonisa ngokusobala umnikelo omkhulu wezomnotho womkhakha e-Caribbean nakubantu bayo. Baphinde bagcizelele ukubaluleka kokwenza amasu okunciphisa izingozi ezingase ziphazamise izinsiza zezokuvakasha esifundeni futhi zibangele ukuhlehla kwesikhathi eside ekukhuleni nasekuthuthukeni.

Okuphawuleka kakhulu, umbiko wakamuva uveze ukuthi isifunda saseCaribbean kungenzeka silahlekelwe ngamaphesenti angama-22 we-GDP ngonyaka ka-2100 uma ijubane lamanje lokushintsha kwesimo sezulu lingaguquki lapho amazwe athile elindele ukulahlekelwa yi-GDP phakathi kwamaphesenti angama-75 nayi-100. Lo mbiko uchaze umthelela omkhulu wesikhathi eside wokuguquguquka kwesimo sezulu emnothweni walesi sifunda njengokulahleka kwemali engenayo yezokuvakasha. Njengoba iningi lethu lazi ukuthi lesi sifunda sibhekane nezingozi ezinkulu zemvelo ezikhathini zamuva nje. Isikhathi sesiphepho sibangele ukulahlekelwa okulinganiselwe ngo-2017 kwezivakashi ezingu-826,100 ezivakashela e-Caribbean, uma kuqhathaniswa nezibikezelo zangaphambi kwesiphepho. Lezi zivakashi ngabe zenze izigidi ezingama-US$741 futhi zisekele imisebenzi eyi-11,005. Ucwaningo luphakamisa ukuthi ukululama emazingeni adlule kungathatha iminyaka emine lapho isifunda sizophuthelwa ngaphezu kwezigidigidi ezi-3 zamaRandi kulesi sikhathi.

Ngaphandle kosongo olukhulayo lokuguquguquka kwesimo sezulu, ababambiqhaza kwezokuvakasha abakwazi ukuhlala bengenandaba nokunye okukhathazayo okuvela ngokushesha phakathi komongo obanzi wokuhwebelana kwembulunga yonke. Thatha isibonelo, usongo lobuphekula. Ukuhlakanipha okuvamile kwakuwukuthi amazwe amaningi angewona asentshonalanga ngokuvamile ayevikelekile ekusongelweni kobuphekula. Kodwa-ke ukuhlasela kwakamuva kwamaphekula ezindaweni zabavakashi njenge-Bali e-Indonesia kanye ne-Bohol e-Philippines bafuna ukudicilela phansi lo mcabango.

Bese kuba nenselelo yokuvimbela kanye nokuqukatha izifo eziwumshayabhuqe nezifo eziwubhadane ezindaweni zabavakashi. Ingozi yezifo eziwumshayabhuqe nezifo eziwumshayabhuqe kube yinto ehlala ikhona ngenxa yesimo sokuhambela amazwe ngamazwe kanye nokuvakasha okusekelwe ekuxhumaneni okuseduze nokuxhumana phakathi kwezigidi zabantu abavela kuwo wonke umhlaba nsuku zonke. Le ngozi iye yanda nokho eminyakeni yamuva.

Izwe namuhla lixhumeke kakhulu ngevolumu yamanje, isivinini, kanye nokufinyelela kokuhamba okungakaze kubonwe ngaphambili. Cishe uhambo oluyizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezine lwathathwa ngendiza ngonyaka odlule nje kuphela. Umbiko wangowezi-4 weWorldbank waveza ukuthi ubhubhane oluhlala unyaka wonke lungadala ukuwa komnotho ngenxa yemizamo yokugwema izifo ezinjengokunciphisa ukuhamba ngendiza, ukugwema ukuya ezindaweni ezinaleli gciwane, kanye nokunciphisa ukusetshenziswa kwezinsiza ezifana nezindawo zokudlela, ezokuvakasha, ezokuthutha ngobuningi. , kanye nokuthenga okudayisa okungabalulekile.

Okokugcina, inkambiso yamanje yokwenza idijithali isho ukuthi manje akumele siqaphele izinsongo ezibonakalayo kuphela kodwa nezinsongo ezikhulayo ezingabonakali ezihlobene nemisebenzi ye-elekthronikhi. Uhwebo oluningi oluhlobene nezokuvakasha manje lwenziwa nge-elekthronikhi kusukela ocwaningweni ngendawo oya kuyo ukuya ekubhukheni kuya ekubhukhelweni kwenkonzo yasekamelweni kuya ekukhokheleni ukuthenga eholidini. Ukuvikeleka kwendawo akuseyona nje indaba yokuvikela abavakashi bamazwe ngamazwe kanye nempilo yasendaweni engozini kodwa manje kusho ukuvikela abantu ezinsongweni ze-inthanethi ezinjengokwebiwa komazisi, ukugetshengwa kwama-akhawunti omuntu siqu kanye nezenzo zomgunyathi.

Sibonile lapho abashokobezi be-inthanethi abayinkimbinkimbi baze babangela ukuphazamiseka kohlelo lonke ezinsizeni ezibalulekile kwamanye amazwe amakhulu ezikhathini zakamuva. Nokho, kuyiqiniso elidabukisayo ukuthi izindawo eziningi zezivakashi okwamanje azinalo uhlelo lokusekelayo lokubhekana nokuhlasela kwe-cyber.

Njengoba sifuna ukwakha ukuqina kwethu ekubhekaneni nezinsongo ezine eziyinhloko ezokuvakasha emhlabeni wonke eziphawulwe esethulweni sami kanye nezinye ezingashiwongo, isici esibalulekile sohlaka olusebenzayo lokukhuthazela ukukwazi ukulindela izehlakalo eziyinhlekelele. Lokhu kushintsha ukugxila ekuphenduleni ukuphazamiseka kuye ekuvimbeleni kwasekuqaleni. Ukwakha ukusimama kuzodinga indlela ehlelekile esekelwe ekuqiniseni ukusebenzisana ezingeni likazwelonke, lesifunda nelamazwe ngamazwe phakathi kwabakhi benqubomgomo yezokuvakasha, abenzi bomthetho, amabhizinisi ezokuvakasha, ama-NGO, abasebenzi bezokuvakasha, izikhungo zemfundo nokuqeqeshwa kanye nomphakathi jikelele ukuze kuqiniswe amandla esikhungo okulindela, ukuhlanganisa, ukuqapha. futhi ihlole izenzo nezinhlelo zokunciphisa izici zobungozi.

Izinsiza ezidingekayo zidinga ukwabelwa ucwaningo, ukuqeqeshwa, ukusungula izinto ezintsha, ukugada, ukwabelana ngolwazi, ukulingisa kanye nezinye izinhlelo zokwakha amakhono. Okubalulekile, ukuthuthukiswa kwezokuvakasha ngeke kusakwazi ukulimaza imvelo njengoba ekugcineni kuyimvelo ezosimamisa umkhiqizo wezokuvakasha onempilo, ikakhulukazi ezindaweni eziseziqhingini. Imizamo yokubhekana nokuguquguquka kwesimo sezulu kumele igxiliswe ngokuqinile emigomeni yezokuvakasha kusukela ekwakhiweni kwemithetho yokwakha kuya ekukhishweni kwezimvume zokwakha kuze kube semthethweni wezindlela ezingcono kakhulu zezemvelo ukuze abahlinzeki bezinsizakalo benze ukuvumelana okujwayelekile nabo bonke ababambiqhaza mayelana nokubaluleka kokusetshenziswa kobuchwepheshe obuluhlaza endaweni. umkhakha.

Ekuphenduleni ikhwelo lokwakha ukusimama kwezokuvakasha e-Caribbean, ngiyaziqhenya kakhulu ngokuthi isikhungo sokuqala sokuqina sesifunda esibizwa ngokuthi 'I-Global Tourism Resilience and Crisis Management Centre' sisanda kusungulwa eNyuvesi yase-West Indies, eMona Campus Jamaica. Lesi sikhungo, okungesokuqala ngqa, sizosiza ngokulungela, ukuphatha, kanye nokululama ekuphazamisekeni kanye/noma ezinkingeni ezithinta ezokuvakasha futhi ezibeke engcupheni umnotho nezindlela zokuziphilisa ezincike embonini.

Lesi sikhungo sigxile ezintweni ezine ezibalulekile ezilethwa okwamanje. Enye iwukusungulwa kwejenali yezemfundo emayelana nokuqina nokuphazamiseka komhlaba. Ibhodi labahleli selisunguliwe futhi liholwa nguSolwazi Lee Miles waseBournemouth University ngosizo lweGeorge Washington University. Okunye okungalethwa kuhlanganisa ukubhalwa kwepulani yokuqina; ukwakhiwa kwe-barometer yokuqina; kanye nokusungulwa koSihlalo Wezemfundo ukuze kuqinisekwe futhi kusungulwe izinto ezintsha. Lokhu kuhambisana nomsebenzi weSikhungo wokudala, ukukhiqiza kanye nokukhiqiza amathuluzi, imihlahlandlela kanye nezinqubomgomo zokuqondisa inqubo yokululama ngemva kwenhlekelele.

Lesi Sikhungo sizoba nabasebenzi abahlonishwa umhlaba wonke emkhakheni wokulawulwa kwesimo sezulu, ukuphatha amaphrojekthi, ukuphatha ezokuvakasha, ukulawulwa kwezinhlekelele zezokuvakasha, ukulawulwa kwezingqinamba zezokuvakasha, ukuphathwa kwezokuxhumana, ukumaketha ezokuvakasha kanye nokubeka uphawu kanye nokuqapha nokuhlola.

Ngaphandle kokusungulwa kweSikhungo Sokusimama esihlinzeka ngohlaka lwesikhungo oluqinile lokwakha ukusimama kwezokuvakasha ngiye ngabona ukuthi ukuqina kumele kuxhunyaniswe nokuthuthukisa ukuncintisana kwezindawo okuyiwa kuzo. Ukuthuthukisa ukuncintisana kwendawo kudinga ukuthi abenzi benqubomgomo yezokuvakasha bakhombe futhi baqondise ezinye izimakethe zezivakashi.

Izindawo ezincane zezivakashi, ikakhulukazi, azisakwazi ukuthembela kuphela ezimakethe ezimbalwa zemithombo ikakhulukazi eNyakatho Melika naseYurophu ngenzuzo yezokuvakasha. Lelo akuselona isu elisebenzayo lokusimamisa umkhiqizo wezokuvakasha osebenzayo. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi izindawo ezintsha ezincintisanayo ziyavela ezinciphisa isabelo sezivakashi zendabuko futhi ngenxa yokuthi ukuncika ngokweqile ezimakethe zemithombo yendabuko kuveza izindawo okuyiwa kuzo ezingeni eliphezulu lokuba sengozini yentuthuko embi yangaphandle. Ukuze uhlale unokuncintisana futhi umelane nomthelela wentuthuko embi ezimakethe zemithombo yendabuko, izindawo okuyiwa kuzo kufanele ziqondise ngokunamandla amasegimenti amasha noma izimakethe ze-niche ukuze zihehe abahambi abavela ezindaweni okungezona ezendabuko.

Kwakuyilokhu kucabanga okusha okuholele ekusunguleni amanethiwekhi ethu amahlanu e-Jamaica- i-gastronomy, ukuzijabulisa nezemidlalo, ezempilo nokuphila kahle, ukuthenga kanye nolwazi- njengesinyathelo sokusebenzisa amandla ethu akhelwe ngaphakathi ukuze sandise ukukhanga komhlaba wonke komkhakha wethu wezokuvakasha ngenkathi ukuvuselela amathuba ezomnotho ezindawo.

Sengiphetha, le ngqungquthela izokwenza kube lula ukushintshana ngemibono ephusile kanye nokucabanga mayelana nokuqina nokulawulwa kwezinhlekelele. Le mibono izosiza bonke abenzi benqubomgomo yezokuvakasha kanye nababambiqhaza abakhona ukuthi bakhele phezu kwamasu akhona kanye nokubheka indlela/umbono omusha. Ekugcineni kufanele kufinyelelwe esivumelwaneni mayelana nohlaka/ipulani yokuqina yomhlaba wonke engamukelwa yizo zonke izindawo zokuvakasha emhlabeni jikelele.
