Namuhla kuphawula okuthile okuyingqophamlando emkhankasweni wethu kazwelonke wokulwa Covid-19. Isimo sokuqala esibucayi (i-SOE) esimenyezelwe nguMhlonishwa uMbusi-Jikelele siphela phakathi kwamabili kusihlwa; futhi lokhu futhi, ngiyakholelwa, usuku lwe-17 oluqondile esihambe ngaphandle kokurekhoda noma yiliphi icala elisha elihle. Ngakho-ke, sisekhoneni futhi ngo-12: 01 ekuseni ngoLwesihlanu, ngoMeyi 1^st, isimo esisha, noma eseluliwe, sesimo esiphuthumayo siqala ukusebenza.

Lokho kusho ukuthi, kuzoba nesimemezelo esisha esizokhishwa uMbusi-Jikelele. Ngaphansi kwalokho, kuzoba futhi nethuluzi elisha lomthetho (SI), elinemithetho emisha uMhlonishwa wakhe azoyisayina nayo ibe ngumthetho. Isimo esisha esibucayi kanye nemithethonqubo emisha, njengoba kuyalelwe isiGungu Sikazwelonke, izothatha izinsuku ezingama-60 ngaphandle kokuthi iphalamende lisheshe lihoxiswe.

Isizathu esiyinhloko sale ngqungquthela yabezindaba ukukudwebela ushintsho oluzokwenziwa yimithethonqubo emisha. Ngisebenzisa igama lesikeshi ngokweluleka. Engizokwenza nje ukugqamisa ezinye zezici ezintsha ezizongeniswa yimithetho emisha. Kamuva namhlanje, yi-Attorney General ezohamba igxathu negxathu lomphakathi ngokusebenzisa konke ukuhlinzekwa kwethuluzi elisha elisemthethweni. Leyo nsimbi esemthethweni izotholakala nakumawebhusayithi ahlukahlukene we-GOB futhi ngokujwayelekile ezinkundleni zokuxhumana.

Ephalamende, nakwezinye izindawo, ngangiveze iphuzu lokuthi asikho isidingo sokwesaba ukuthi ukwandiswa kwesimo esibucayi kusho ukuthi ukwandiswa kombuso, kukho konke ubunzima bawo, obabukhona ngaphansi kwesimo esiphuthumayo sangaphambilini. Empeleni, ngitshengise ukuthi uma sicabanga ukuthi senza kahle kangakanani ngokuqhathanisa amacala amasha, besilindele ukwehlisa ukuqina kwesethi yokugcina yemithetho. Ngakho-ke ngilapha ukukutshela ukuthi kunjengoba nje ngishilo: kukhona ukuncipha okukhulu okuzolethwa umbuso omusha. Kuyangithokozisa nokukwazi ukusho ukuthi lezi zinyathelo ezintsha zingumphumela wesivumelwano phakathi kweKomidi Lezokuphatha Likazwelonke kanye neKhabinethi YaseBelize.

Ngaphambi kokuba ngiqhubeke, kufanele ngenze into eyodwa icace. Akunandlela yokuthi, kulawo magama adumile kaMongameli Bush, singasho ukuthi "umsebenzi ufezekile". Sibona okuzokwenzeka manje njengesikhala sokuphefumula, isivumelwano esingajabulisi. Sizosebenzisa leli thuba ukuhlela, ukulungiselela ukubonakala okungahle kube khona igagasi lesibili lamacala. Uma lokho kugadla, sicela abantu bethu bakulungele ukukwenza kabusha futhi, kufaka phakathi ukubuyela kokubi kakhulu kokuvalwa.

Enye yezinto ezimbi kakhulu ngaleli gciwane ukuthi akekho emhlabeni oye wakwazi ukuthola ukuthi lisebenza kanjani ngqo. Kuyisitha esingalindelekile, esikhohlisayo esingaziphindisela emuva futhi siphakamise ngokushesha noma iyiphi inqubekela phambili esiyenzayo ekuqaleni. Lo ngumzabalazo odonsa isikhathi eside futhi ngokungangabazeki kuzofanele sizidele isikhathi eside.

Okwamanje, nokho, sikholelwa ukuthi sibambe ikhefu elincane, noma kungafakazela isikhathi esifushane kangakanani. Ngakho-ke, sisebenzisa leli thuba ukuqala kabusha, kuze kube sezingeni eliphakeme ngangokunokwenzeka ezimweni, emsebenzini wangaphakathi webhizinisi nakwezomnotho.

Ngokunjalo, ngaphansi kwe-SI entsha, yonke iminyango kahulumeni nazo zonke izinhlaka ezisemthethweni zizovulwa ngoMsombuluko, Meyi 4^th. Ngokwemvelo, sengeze ohlwini lwamabhizinisi asezinkampanini ezizimele nawo avunyelwe ukusebenza; futhi lezo zengezo zingaqala ngoMgqibelo, ngoMeyi 2^nd - ngemuva kweholide loSuku Lwabasebenzi - uma bejwayele ukusebenzisa amahora okuvula ngoMgqibelo. Abameli, ama-accountants, abathengisi bezezakhiwo, ngezinye zezibonelo zemikhakha ezimele, abahlinzeka ngemisebenzi esezingeni eliphezulu manje abase ohlwini olwamukelwe. Kukhona, futhi, isigaba esichazwe ngokuncomekayo njengabakhiqizi bendawo, lapho ababazi bethu, osonkontileka bezokwakha, abasebenza ngamapayipi, abasebenza ngogesi, njalonjalo, bazokwazi ukusebenza. Abathengisi bezitolo kanye nabathengisi ngokuvamile bayakhululwa, futhi nezikhungo zezingcingo zingavulwa kabusha, ikakhulukazi ngenhloso yokuqeqeshwa. Izinsizakalo zezikhungo zezingcingo zaseBelize ziya ngokuya zifuneka ngenxa yalolu bhubhane, kanti izikhungo zingathatha imisebenzi emisha engaphezu kwenkulungwane uma ukuqeqeshwa kuvunyelwe. Kubaluleke kakhulu emnothweni.

Amahhotela nawo manje azovulwa, uma ekhetha kanjalo, ukuhlinzekela amakhasimende aseBelizean. Izindawo zokudlela zabo zizokhawulelwa, noma kunjalo, ekuhlinzekeni insizakalo yasekamelweni kanye nokudla okuphumayo.

Njengomphumela wakho konke lokhu, umkhawulo ojwayelekile wokunyakaza uyasuswa kuze kube manje uzovumela umphakathi ukuthi uhambele amabhizinisi ahlukahlukene kahulumeni nabazimele ngezinsizakalo njengoba zidinga, ngaphezu kokuthengwa kwempahla futhi kubalulekile izidingo. Futhi ekunikezeni imvume eyodwa, ama-salon amahle nezindawo zokugunda nazo zingaqala ukusebenza, noma kunjalo, kuphela ngokuqokwa, kusebenza nekhasimende elilodwa ngasikhathi. Ama-Spas, ngiyesaba, kusazodingeka ukuthi avalwe.

Kuningi kakhulu kunsimbi yomthetho kunalokho engikubalulile, kepha njengoba ngishilo, ngishiya imininingwane echaziwe, ulayini nomugqa ku-Attorney General, ozombona kamuva namhlanje.

Ngakho-ke nginokunye kuphela into engingangeza kulokhu. Ukuphumula, ukuvuleka, akuyona inkululeko yabo bonke. Yonke imisebenzi yebhizinisi, yonke imisebenzi yezomnotho, ingaphansi kwezimfuneko zokuqedwa komphakathi. Asikho isikhungo somphakathi esingavumela noma yiliphi ilungu lomphakathi ukuthi lingene emagcekeni alo lingagqokile isifihla-buso sobuso, futhi abaphathi nabasebenzi kumele bazigqokise lezi zimaski. Futhi, akekho ongasebenza ngaphandle kokubeka abahlukanisi abangamamitha ayisithupha ukugcina bobabili abasebenzi nomphakathi behlukaniswe kahle.

Kungaleso sikhathi-ke, kubaluleke kakhulu kithi ukuqonda ukuthi ekugcineni yonke into incike ekubhekeni kwethu ukugudluka ngokomzimba neminye imithetho. Ngakho-ke, ngukuthi empeleni sandisa izinhlawulo zokwephula okuthile. Njengesibonelo esisodwa nje, labo ababanjwa besebenzisa ukweqa okungekho emthethweni ukuya ikakhulukazi eMexico naseQuintana Roo, lapho ukwanda kwamacala e-coronavirus kuye kwanda, lapho, lapho begwetshwa, bazoya ejele izinyanga ezintathu. Ukutholwa enecala lesibili kuzoholela ekutheni agwetshwe unyaka owodwa ejele.

Ngifisa ukugcizelela futhi ukuthi lo moya esiwuthathayo uyithuba lokuqinisa ukuzivikela kwethu ukuze kube negagasi lesibili elingenzeka. Ukhiye walelo su wukuqhubeka nokuhlolwa. Kungaleso sizathu ukuthi u-CEO uDkt Gough ulapha. Uzobheka uhlu lwethu lwezivivinyo nezinto ezihambisanayo ezisezandleni, nokuthi yini ehlelekile. Lokhu kungenxa yesizathu esisodwa esigqamile: ukubonakala. Kufanele usazi isimo sethu sokulungela. Kufanele wazi noma yikuphi ukushiyeka nokuthi senzani ukulungisa lokho. Kumele wazi ukuthi yimali esetshenzisiwe nokuthi isetshenziswe kanjani. Kufanele uyazi imithombo yethu yezimali nokuthi yini ethenjisiwe uma kuqhathaniswa nalokho okutholiwe.

Ngaphambi kokuthi ngiyidlulisele kuDkt. Gough, ngizosho okokugcina. Sonke sinethemba lokuthi izivivinyo ezisheshayo eziqinisekiswe umhlaba wonke ezizosisiza ukuthi senze izinto ezimbili: ukukhulisa amandla ethu okuhlola endawo, nokusivumela ngempumelelo ukuhlola izivakashi ukuze sikwazi ukuvula imboni yethu yezokuvakasha ebaluleke kakhulu.

Okwamanje, ake siqonde okuthile. Ngeke sakwazi ukuvivinya iBelizean ngayinye. Ngaphezu kwalokho, isayensi iphakamisa ukuthi lokho akudingekile nje. Okushiwo yizilinganiso zomhlaba wonke, okuvela ku-WHO nakwabanye, ukuthi alikho inani eliqondile lezivivinyo okufanele kuhloswe ngalo. Isimiso esiqondisayo, kunalokho, yilesi: ufuna amaphesenti aphansi ezivivinyo zakho ukuthi zibuye zingezinhle, cishe zibe ngu-10% noma ngaphansi, kusho uWilliam Hanage, ingcweti yezifo eziseHarvard. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi uma amaphesenti aphezulu okuhlolwa abuya ethembekile kuyacaca ukuthi akukho ukuhlolwa okwanele ukubamba bonke abantu abanegciwane emphakathini. Uma kwehla iphesenti lezivivinyo ozenzayo ezibuya zihle, kuba ngcono. Ngalelo zinga, iBelize ngamacala kuphela esiwabhalile kusuka ezivivinyweni ezingaphezu kwezingu-700, yenza kahle kakhulu ngamaphesenti. Ngezansi singaphansi kwalesi sibalo esilinganayo esingu-10% esikhomba isidingo sokuhlolwa okusheshiswe kakhulu.

Futhi, ekuqaleni kokuqubuka lapho inani labantu abangenwe yigciwane liphansi, inani elincane kakhulu lokuhlola liyadingeka ukuhlola ngokunembile ukusabalala kwegciwane. Njengoba igciwane lingena kubantu abaningi, ukuvikeleka kokuhlola kudinga ukunweba ukuze kunikezwe inani elithembekile lesibonakaliso sangempela sabantu abanegciwane.

Konke lokho nokho, iBelize iqhubekela phambili nokuhlolwa okwandisiwe njengoba uDkt Gough, engiphendukela kuye manje, naye ezokuchaza.

LOKHO ONGAKUTHATHE KULESI SIHLOKO:

Ephalamende, nakwezinye izindawo, ngalibeka iphuzu lokuthi asikho isidingo sokwesaba ukuthi ukwelulwa kwesimo esiphuthumayo ngempela kusho ukwelulwa kombuso, kukho konke ukuqina kwawo, owawukhona ngaphansi kwesimo esiphuthumayo sangaphambilini.
Ngiyajabula futhi ukukwazi ukusho ukuthi lezi zinyathelo ezintsha ziwumkhiqizo wesivumelwano phakathi kokubili kweKomidi Likazwelonke Lokwengamela kanye neKhabhinethi yaseBelize.
Eqinisweni, ngikhombise ukuthi njengoba sisebenza kahle kangakanani ekugcineni amacala amasha, besilindele ukuxegisa ukuqina kwesethi yokugcina yemithetho.
