Ukuwohloka komnotho womhlaba kanye nezindleko ezikhulayo zikaphethiloli kunomthelela ekuvakasheni okuthatha uhambo olude oluvela phesheya kwezilwandle, nezinombolo zabavakashi bakwamanye amazwe zimile kusukela kuma-Olympics aseSydney.
Ngaleso sikhathi, abantu base-Australia nabo bathola ukuthi bathola inqwaba yemali yabo yamaholide ogwini.
I-Tourism Research Australia ikhombisa ukuvakasha kwasekhaya kwehle kakhulu onyakeni wezimali odlule, njengoba abantu base-Australia abangu-500,000 bekhetha ukuyovakashela phesheya kwezilwandle kunokuya ekhaya. Ngakho-ke, kuphi isihogo esinegazi osopolitiki bethu njengoba imboni iyancipha?
Impendulo ithi, babeke amathemba abo kumqondisi u-Baz Luhrmann (Moulin Rouge, Strictly Ballroom, Romeo + Juliet) kanye nefilimu yakhe ezayo i-Australia, ehambisana nomkhankaso wesikhangiso we-TV oxhaswe ngabakhokhintela abangama- $ 40 wezigidi.
Lokho kuzokhiqizwa yinkampani kaLuhrmann, iBazmark.
Labo sopolitiki kuphakathi kokuthi bayahlanya noma bayiziphukuphuku nje.
Ngokusho kweTourism Australia, kunzima emsebenzini ukusiqamba kabusha.
Umqondisi ophethe u-Geoff Buckley uthi izikhangiso zefilimu neze-TV zizohlinzeka i-Australia ngohlelo lwayo lokumaketha olunamandla emashumini eminyaka.
Ukuqina kwethemba, ukuboleka esihlokweni sencwadi ka-Barak Obama, kufanelekile kulokho u-Baz akwenzayo ukuze afake uphawu lwase-Australia.
Isihloko sefilimu yakhe sinesifiso sokuvelela, uma singesiyo isibindi. Uthi isihloko siyisingathekiso, kusobala ukuthi akazi ukuthi leli gama lisho ukuthini.
Uma ngempela wayefuna isingathekiso, kungenzeka ukuthi wathintana namaShayina futhi waqhamuka nento efana neHopping Roo, Creeping Wombat.
I-Australia, ehlelelwe ukukhululwa ngoNovemba, izihlabani uNicole Kidman noHugh Jackman. Izokhonjiswa okokuqala e-LA, hhayi e-Australia - lokho kungenzeka kuyisingathekiso seCringing Colonial.
Ukukhuluma iqiniso, ukuphusha kokumaketha kuqondiswe e-US.
Mayelana nesakhiwo, izinkanyezi ziqala lokho u-Baz akubiza ngokuthi uhlobo lohambo lweNdlovukazi yase-Afrika edumile. Ngaphandle kweqiniso, akukho e-Afrika, kuse-Australia.
U-Kidman udlala ngowesifazane oyiNgisi, okungenzeka ukuthi ocwile ku-Chanel No.5, oza ezobheka isitolo sezinkomo somyeni wakhe enyakatho ye-Australia.
Ngobuhlakani bakhe bokumaketha obungenakuqhathaniswa, u-Baz uchaza lesi siteshi njengesikhulu njengeBelgium, izwe cishe abantu baseMelika abathathu kuphela kanye nebhere elilodwa le-grizzly abake bezwa ngalo.
Futhi-ke, akufani neBelgium, lapho ungathola khona ikhofi elimnandi nekhekhe.
E-Australia ka-Baz wenza kanzima, futhi uthola ukubona lokho akubiza ngokuthi indawo yomhlaba engathetheleli.
Konke kuyenga kakhulu - uma kungenzeka ukuthi ungumfundi we-masochist onesikhathi nemali yokuhamba uye ezindaweni ezikude nezinzima ufuna ukuzithuthukisa.
Umuntu waseMelika ojwayelekile angase acabange ukubhalisela ukulwa e-Baghdad - okungenani bazokhokhelwa.
U-Baz unqume ukungababonisi abangaba abavakashi noma yiziphi izimpawu zomhlaba wethu, ekhetha ukugxila kulokho akubiza ngokuthi “uguquko lwemizwa” abantu ababhekana nalo lapho behamba ezindaweni ezingazodwa ezindaweni ezisemaphandleni.
Kuzwakala sengathi u-bloke uchithe isikhathi esiningi elangeni futhi wahamba ngokuphelele. Iyabamba.
Ngaphambi kokuthi ukukhiqizwa kwefilimu kuqale, uHulumeni we-WA ubeke imali engu-$500,000 kuyo, ethi izokhombisa izwe njengendawo yokuvakasha yamazwe ngamazwe.
Ngizokubheja ngehhashi elilodwa elifile ngeke lisenze lutho, izifunda noma izindawo.
Ngaphandle kweqiniso lokuthi indawo eveziwe iwumhlaba ngaphandle kweVictoria neTasmania, itulo lizokhuphukela ekhaleni lamaJapan, ligxile njengoba lenza ekuqhumeni kwebhomu kweMpi Yezwe II eDarwin.
Ngabe sizobaheha babuye ngokukhomba lapho kwenzeka khona ubugebengu babo?
U-Darwin omdala ompofu akumhambeli kahle kakhulu kulesi saga esidabukisayo, kunezigcawu ezimbalwa kuphela ezishuthwe lapho.
Hhayi-ke singase sibuze kwabangase bavakashe, ukuphi umthombo onegazi? Bazobe bephephile ekhaya elinegazi futhi akumangalisi.
