Izinxushunxushu zezombangazwe zaseGibhithe zisekude ukuphela njengoba ngibhala lesi sihloko manje. I-assortment ye-Middle East "ochwepheshe" emhlabeni jikelele baye bafaka izimo ezihlukahlukene okungenzeka noma yikuphi okungenzeka kube okunembile noma okungalungile.
Okungase kube nenkulumompikiswano wukuthi izigigaba ezenzeka e-Egypt zibe yinhlekelele ngenxa yokubukeka kwezwe njengendawo yokuvakasha. Ngisho noma ezinye izingxenye ze-Egypt njengogu loLwandle Olubomvu kanye neSinayi bezingenabo udlame, ikhono lezivakashi zamazwe ngamazwe lokungena noma ukuphuma e-Egypt lilinganiselwe kakhulu nekhono lokuhamba ngaphakathi kwezwe.
Inkinga yezepolitiki e-Egypt nayo ingase ibe nomthelela omubi kwezokuvakasha komakhelwane baseGibhithe. Izivakashi eziningi ezivakashela eLibya zingena eLibya zisuka eGibhithe. Abaningi abasebenzisa izivakashi bamaketha ukuvakasha okuhlangene kwe-Egypt kuhlanganiswe ne-Jordan, i-Israel ne-Syria kungaba ngabanye noma ngezinhlanganisela zamazwe amaningi. Ngokwesiko, i-Egypt ibilokhu iyindawo ewumgogodla yalezi zinhlelo zokuvakasha ezihlangene. Ngakho-ke, kunokukhathazeka kwangempela ukuthi lapho i-Egypt ihlushwa inyumoniya yalapho, omakhelwane bayo kungenzeka bangenwe umkhuhlane.
Impela abanye abahambi abafuna ukuvakashela izindawo eziningi zaseMpumalanga Med bangahlehlisa izinhlelo zabo zohambo kunoma iyiphi yalezi zindawo kuze kube yilapho i-Egypt ithathwa njengendawo ephephile. Umthelela omubi ezindaweni ezingomakhelwane uwumphumela ovamile wesimo esibucayi ezweni elilodwa, ikakhulukazi lapho leli zwe linemingcele efana ne-Egypt.
Kodwa-ke, ekugcineni kuzoba nesinqumo futhi njengoba ezokuvakasha ziyiwona umqashi omkhulu wase-Egypt futhi ongenisa imali yamazwe ngamazwe izwe lizokhathazeka ukubuyisela ezokuvakasha ngokushesha okukhulu, Njengoba kwenzeka kuyo yonke imikhankaso yokubuyisela indawo okuyiwa kuyo, i-Egypt izodinga amawele amabili. indlela egxile ekubuyiseleni isithunzi saleyo ndawo emphakathini ohambayo kanye nemboni yezokuvakasha.
Esihlokweni sakamuva se-eTN, ngizwakalise ukukhathazeka kwami ukuthi iwebhusayithi ye-Egypt Tourism Authority yayiziba izinkinga zamanje. Ayikho indawo kusizindalwazi sehhovisi lezokuvakasha kazwelonke emhlabeni wanamuhla yendlela yezinkawu ezintathu ezihlakaniphile (ungaboni okubi, ungakhulumi okubi, ungezwa okubi) enkingeni yezokuvakasha efana neyaseGibhithe.
Nokho, zikhona izindaba ezinhle. I-Egypt Tourism Authority ithuthukisa isu lokuqalisa kabusha ezokuvakasha zase-Egypt ngemva kokuba le nkinga isiphelile. Ngiyazi lokhu ngoba inhlangano engiyisungule e-Australia idlala indima ebalulekile okungenani kuze kube manje njengoba imakethe yemithombo yase-Australia ikhathazekile. Ngo-2010, abantu base-Australia abangaphezu kuka-80,000 bavakashela e-Egypt- irekhodi lesikhathi sonke. Kodwa-ke, ezinsukwini eziyi-10 ezedlule izinkulungwane eziningi kudingeke zikhishwe, ezinye zikhishwe uhulumeni wase-Australia.
Ochwepheshe bezokuvakasha kanye nemboni kufanele babheke isithombe sesikhathi eside. I-Eastern Mediterranean Tourism Association (Australia) www.emta.org.au isebenzisa ubusuku obune bomkhiqizo wemboni yezokuvakasha phakathi namasonto amabili okuqala kaMashi e-Sydney, eMelbourne, eBrisbane nase-Sunshine Coast. Kulowo nalowo mcimbi iHhovisi Lezokuvakasha laseGibhithe libamba iqhaza njengomunye wabethuli abangu-18 futhi lizosebenzisa izikhathi zakusihlwa ze-EMTA ukwethula umkhankaso wabo wesikhathi esizayo wokukhuthaza abahambi base-Australia ukuthi babuye. ezilalelini zama-travel agents ase-Australia angaba ngu-600 kanye nabezindaba zezohwebo zase-Australia. Omunye umethuli we-EMTA yi-Australian tour operator, i-Bunnik Travel, i-CEO yayo u-Dennis Bunnik eya e-Egypt wayosiza ekubuyiseleni amakhasimende akhe angaphezu kwekhulu e-Egypt kanye nabahambi abaningi base-Australia ababedukile ababengewona amaklayenti akhe. U-Dennis uzolandisa ngokuhlangenwe nakho kwakhe kokuqala e-Egypt emicimbini ye-EMTA.
I-EMTA, kanye nami njengonobhala wayo kazwelonke, sinethemba elikhulu lokuthi ezokuvakasha zaseGibhithe zizobuyela emuva kodwa kuzobandakanya indlela ende yokwakha kabusha ukuzethemba. Okuhamba phambili kuzoba wukubhekana nezinkinga zokuphepha ukuze ohulumeni abavela ezimakethe ezibalulekile baqiniseke ngokwanele ngobufakazi obuqinile bokwehlisa izinga lesexwayiso sezokuphepha ngezeluleko zabo zokuhamba. Ngemva kwalokho, izindlela eziningi zokumaketha kanye nezisusa zokubuyisela kokubili ukuhweba kanye nokuzethemba kwabahambi kungase kusetshenziswe.
