Abahambisi bezokuvakasha eTanzania balahla ithemba ngokubambezeleka kukahulumeni ukuphoqelela ukukhululwa kwentela yokungenisa izimoto ezimotweni zabavakashi njengoba isikhathi siqala ukuqala kwesizini ephezulu yezokuvakasha.
Ngesikhathi sesabelomali sango-2018/19, iPhalamende lachibiyela uhlelo lwesihlanu loMthetho Wokuphathwa Kwezimpahla ZaseMpumalanga ye-Afrika 2004 ukuze kuhlinzwe ukungakhokhiswa kwentela yokungenisa izinhlobo ezahlukene zezimoto ukuhambisa izivakashi.
Bekulindelwe kakhulu ukuthi abanikazi bezokuvakasha abanamalayisense, kusukela ngoJulayi 1, 2018, bebezoqala ukungenisa izimoto, amabhasi okubuka indawo, kanye namaloli aphesheya kwezilwandle ngaphandle kwentela, njengesinyathelo esibalulekile sokukhuthaza intuthuko yezimboni zezokuvakasha.
Ezokuvakasha zingumkhakha osemqoka kwezomnotho njengoba kungumholo wezwe omkhulu kunayo yonke othola imali engaphezulu kwama- $ 2 billion minyaka yonke, okulingana namaphesenti ayi-17 e-GPD kazwelonke, imininingwane esemthethweni ikhombisa.
Kodwa cishe ezinyangeni eziyisithupha kamuva, ukukhululwa kuvele kwaba yisithembiso esingenalutho, njengoba uhulumeni esahudula izinyawo, okwenza i-Tanzania Association of Tour Operators (TATO) ifune ukucaciselwa.
Isikhulu Esiphezulu se-TATO, uMnu Sirili Akko, usanda kubhalela uNgqongqoshe Wezezimali incwadi, ephikisa ngokuthi abanye babavakashi bakhala ngokufakwa ezintweni zokungenisa impahla ezweni nokuthi ezinye zezimoto zabo zibhajwe emachwebeni ngenxa yentela yokungenisa impahla engundabuzekwayo.
“Kukulesi sizathu lapho i-TATO inqume ukukubhalela khona, ifuna ukucaciselwa ngalolu daba. Ngabe kusho ukuthi ukukhululwa akukaze kwenziwe? ” incwadi esayinwe nguMnu. Akko ifundeka njengengxenye.
USihlalo kasoseshini onamalungu angaphezu kuka-300 ezweni lonke, uMnu. Wilbard Chambulo, uthe amalungu akhe abanjelwe ukubanjwa okungu-22 ngemuva kokulahla izimoto eziningi ezindala, elindele ukungenisa ezingenamsebenzi zilungele ukuhambisa izivakashi isizini ephezulu ezayo ngenxa yokuthi iqale maphakathi noDisemba 2018.
“Iningi lethu liswele dengwane njengoba uhulumeni engakhulumi ngokukhishwa kwentela yokungenisa impahla kuleli. Sifuna nje izwi kuhulumeni ukuthi ukuzibophezela bekungamanga noma kuyiqiniso, ”kuchaza uMnu Chambulo.
I-TATO ikholelwa ekutheni inhloso ecatshangwe kahle yokuyekisa intela yokungenisa izimoto ezimotweni ezahlukahlukene zabavakashi izalwe yintshisekelo kahulumeni wesigaba sesihlanu ukukhuthaza intuthuko embonini yezokuvakasha.
Ehlongoza ukukhululwa kwentela yokungenisa izimoto ezimotweni ezahlukahlukene zabavakashi eSabelomali Sikazwelonke sowezi-2018/19 ePhalamende, uNgqongqoshe Wezezimali, uDkt. Phillip Mpango, uthe kunesinyathelo esibalulekile sokukhuthaza intuthuko yezimboni zezokuvakasha ezibandakanya izigidigidi zamarandi.
"Ngiphakamisa ukuthi ngichibiyele uhlelo lwesihlanu loMthetho Wokuphathwa Kwezimpahla ZaseMpumalanga ne-Afrika, ukuhlinzeka ngokungakhokhiswa intela yokungenisa impahla ezinhlotsheni ezahlukahlukene zezimoto ukuhambisa izivakashi," kusho uDkt Mpango ethula phambi kwesiGungu Sikazwelonke enhlokodolobha yezwe, iDodoma.
Uthe inhloso yalesi sinyathelo ukukhuthaza ukutshalwa kwezimali emkhakheni wezokuvakasha, ukwenza ngcono izinsizakalo, ukudala amathuba emisebenzi, nokwengeza imali etholwa nguhulumeni.
Isikhulu sakwaTATO sithe amalungu kasosesheni athintwe yisinqumo soMbuso sokuchitha intela yokungenisa impahla kuleli, nokucacisa ukuthi ukungakhokhiswa intela kubabaza kakhulu ngoba kuzobongela u- $ 9,727 ngemoto ngayinye yabavakashi engenisiwe.
“Cabanga ngaphambi kwalolu sizo, abanye abasebenza ukuvakasha babevame ukungenisa izimoto ezintsha ezifika ku-100 ngasikhathi sinye bese bekhokha imali engama- $ 972,700 yokungenisa kuphela. Manje le mali izotshalwa ikhulisa inkampani ngenhloso yokwakha amathuba emisebenzi kanye nemali engenayo, ”kuchaza uMnu Chambulo.
Kuyaqondakala ukuthi i-TATO ibilokhu ilwe njalo ukuze kufezwe isithembiso. Ngenkathi umhlangano ugunyaza ukukhululwa, amalungu e-TATO abonge ukuthi uhulumeni ubacabangele ngokwanele ukukhala kwabo, bethi lesi senzo siyisivumelwano sokuwina.
Amarekhodi akhona akhombisa ukuthi abanikazi bezokuvakasha eTanzania bakhokhiswa intela ehlukene engama-37, kufaka phakathi ukubhaliswa kwebhizinisi, imali yokungena, imali yamalayisense okulawula, intela yemali engenayo, kanye nemisebenzi yonyaka yemoto ngayinye yabavakashi.
Umphathi we-TATO uphikise ngokuthi udaba oluphikisanayo akukhona nje ukuthi ingakhokhwa kanjani intela eningi futhi wenze inzuzo, kepha nendlela yokusebenza nesikhathi esichithwa ukwenza intela eyinkimbinkimbi.
"Abaqhubi bezokuvakasha badinga intela ehlanjululwe ukuze banciphise ukuhambisana, ngoba izindleko zokuthobela imithetho ziphakeme kakhulu futhi ngenxa yalokho zivimbela ukuthobela ngokuzithandela," kuchaza uMnu Chambulo.
Ngempela, ucwaningo ngomkhakha wezokuvakasha eTanzania lukhombisa imithwalo yezokuphatha yokuqedela intela yamalayisense kanye nokukhokhiswa kwamaphepha kubeka izindleko ezinzima emabhizinisini ngokwesikhathi nangemali.
Umqhubi wezokuvakasha, ngokwesibonelo, uchitha izinyanga ezingaphezu kwezingu-4 ngokugcwalisa amaphepha okulawula. Intela nezincwadi zamalayisense kudla inani lakhe eliphelele lamahora angama-745 ngonyaka.
Umbiko ohlanganyelwe weTanzania Confederation of Tourism (TCT) kanye ne-BEST-Dialogue ukhombisa ukuthi izindleko ezijwayelekile zonyaka zabasebenzi ukufeza amaphepha okulawula kumuntu ngamunye ovakasha wendawo zimi kuTsh 2.9 million ($ 1,300) ngonyaka.
ITanzania ilinganiselwa ukuthi inamakhaya ezinkampani ezingaphezu kwezi-1,000 330, kepha imininingwane esemthethweni ikhombisa ukuthi zimbalwa izinkampani ezisemthethweni ezingama-XNUMX ezihambisana nombuso wentela, okungenzeka ukuthi kungenxa yobunzima bokuthotshelwa komthetho.
Lokhu kusho ukuthi kungaba nezinkampani ezingama-670 zezikhwama zokuvakasha ezisebenza eTanzania. Uma kukhokhwa imali yelayisense yaminyaka yonke engu- $ 2,000, kusho ukuthi uMgcinimafa ulahlekelwa yi- $ 1.34 million minyaka yonke.
Kodwa-ke, uNgqongqoshe Wezezimali uphinde wathembisa ngenkulumo yesabelomali ukuthi uhulumeni uzokwethula uhlelo olulodwa lokukhokha oluzokwenza ukuthi osomabhizinisi bakwazi ukukhokha yonke intela ngaphansi kophahla olulodwa ngenhloso yokubanikeza intela engenazinkinga.
UDkt Mpango uphinde wasusa izimali ezahlukahlukene ngaphansi kwe-Occupational, Safety and Health Authority (OSHA) njenge labo abafakwa kumafomu okufaka isicelo sokubhaliswa kwezindawo zokusebenza, amalevi, izinhlawulo eziphathelene nezinsimbi zomlilo nezokutakula, ilayisense lokuthobela umthetho, nezimali zokubonisana zikaTsh 500,000 ($ 222) kanye nama-450,000 ngokulandelana ($ 200).
"Uhulumeni uzoqhubeka nokubuyekeza amalevi ahlukahlukene nezimali ezikhokhwa yizikhungo nezinhlaka zikahulumeni ngenhloso yokwenza ngcono ezamabhizinisi nezotshalomali," kusho uNgqongqoshe ePhalamende.
